Beat The Blogger Results/Matchups
Posted by Tuff Stuff
We fell short of our goal of getting more than 300 entries in the Beat the Blogger contest, but we are inching closer. The good news is we'll give it another shot this week, and if we can eclipse the 300 mark, one lucky winner will claim the authentic, signed Chipper Jones jersey that the Blogger is just dying to give away.
A pair of newcomers to the contest posted near-perfect scores to tie for the top spot in last week's contest. Christie Merkle and Dennis Juntenen each scored 10s to easily better the Blogger's total of 5 (I swear I'll try harder) and each will now be receiving an authentic signed 8-by-10 color photo for their efforts.
For those unfamiliar with the Beat the Blogger contest,
the idea is simple. The Blogger posts 10 matchups each week and then
selects his choices for the winners of those matchups. Contestants
enter the Beat the Blogger contest by clicking on the "Comment" section below the post with the matchups and then select their own 10 winners. You can also designate one of your picks as a "Doubler"
and you will receive an extra point if you're correct so don't forget
to designate your " Doubler" pick and increase your chances of winning.
If you Beat The Blogger's total and post the high score for the week, you win. The regular weekly prize is an authentic signed 8-by-10 color photo of stars such as LaDainian Tomlinson, Drew Brees, Marshall Faulk, Santonio Holmes, Gale Sayers, Catfish Hunter
and many more. From time to time, the Blogger will sweeten the pot for
the weekly contest and that's where the Chipper Jones jersey comes into
play. If we can get more than 300 entries this week, the weekly winner will receive the Jones jersey so we need everybody to spread the word about the contest so we can reach our goal.
This week's matchups are posted below so make sure you get your picks posted 1/2 hour before the start of the first game
on Saturday to be eligible. And don't forget to spread the word about
how easy it is to win playing Beat The Blogger so we can reach our goal
of more than 300 entries this week.
