After an embarrassing week in which he managed to correctly pick just four of the eight matchups,
the Blogger has vowed to bounce back strong this week. So contestants, study up and see if can
Beat The Blogger.

For those unfamiliar with the
Beat the Blogger contest,
the idea is simple: Post your picks to the matchups pasted in the post
below, correctly pick more matchups than the Blogger and the rest of
the field and
win an authentic signed 8-by-10 photo from the
prize vault. If there is a tie for the top spot (or if nobody posts a
higher total than the Blogger, the prize will double to two photos the
following week and everybody will get another chance to take down the
Blogger and the field. Also, remember to designate one of your picks as your
"Doubler" to receive a bonus point. Good luck and thanks for playing. Make sure you
spread the word about how easy it is to win great authentic sports
memorabilia playing
Beat the Blogger.
Make sure you get your picks in before the start of the first game of the week (
Which is 8 a.m. Thursday this week because of The Masters) so you're eligible to win. Good luck and thanks for playing. Also,
