Beat The Blogger Matchups
Posted by Tuff Stuff

Because our die-hard Beat The Blogger players are fired up and ready to post their picks, I posted them a little earlier than normal this week. So take advantage of the extra time by studying up the matchups, making your picks and then you'll have the rest of the week to spread the word about the contest to all of your friends and co-workers so we can get a huge turnout. This week's matchups are below. As always, GOOD LUCK.

The Blogger's struggles continued
over the holiday weekend, as he managed to correctly pick 6 of 10 but it wasn't nearly enough to hang with two near-perfect efforts who tied for the top spot in last week's Beat The Blogger contest.

Brian M and Martin Kelly each got 9 of their 10 picks correct and then utilized the Doubler to push their totals to 10 and win the weekly prize. For their efforts, both will be receiving an 8-by-10 signed color photo.

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 "contest.jpgDoubler" 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.
