PIGSKIN AND POLITICS:
How about starting the New Year off by giving away books for an NFL Bracket contest and a political Primaries contest.
Here's an NFL Bracket--pick all the winners and the final score of the Super Bowl:
For example, I'm going with:
Jags
Chargers
Bucs
Skins
Pats
Chargers
Bucs
Skins
Pats
Skins
Pats 42-25
And for the primaries pick the 1-3 finishers on both sides in IA, NH , & SC
For example, I'm going with:
IA
GOP: Huckabee, Romney, McCain
DEM: Obama, Edwards, Clinton
NH
GOP: McCain, Romney, Paul
DEM: Clinton, Obama, Edwards
SC:
GOP: McCain, Huckabee, Thompson
DEM: Clinton, Obama, Edwards
Enter either or both (if you see a website that has an NFL Bracket pool set up already, please let us know).
