Phil Steele Magazine Giveaway Trivia 07/29/2011

[ursus arctos horribilis]

Final one, and you may have some "load time" on the one question. Also, when a question asks for a date and it is posted as "2008-2009" I only need the one season in question but it is listed as it is because that is how it is listed on the website.

FRIDAY'S QUESTION.

Thanks to all of you guys for playing and mostly for not whining about every little mistake along the way. It was truly a pleasure my friends.

Except for Rob Iola and his conspiracy theories that is.:D

So he won pictures of cool stuff? That is pretty lame.

Since this one went pretty well I'd say the odds are real good that we will be having more of these in the future. I'm sure we'll be able to do something in July's future along this line and I will be looking for other ways to give some FCS related stuff back to the AGS community through some sponsors or ads of some kind as this one was done.

On that note thanks to Rolf at Phil Steele Magazine also.xthumbsupx

I might do it over the weekend but I wouldn't mind a day or two off from this as well.

[Tribe4SF]

Take all the time you need, Big Bear. It was alot of fun!

Phil Steele FCS magazine: $13
Friendly picking with Ursus for 10 days: Priceless

Thanks!

[superman7515]

Sweet! Thanks to everyone for all of the great competition, you were all wonderful. I couldn't have done it without my team though. The #75 Chevy ran well, the handling was great, and we had a great qualifying thanks to all the work my crew chief 401ks and crew put in on those late night alcohol binges.

I'd like to thank Tribe4SF for the inspirational photos he sent me of LegalGASouthernEagle's wife, it really kept my spirits up over the long haul of the last few days.

I'd like to thank Head of Security UNIFanSince1983, who armed only with a dull knife, repelled the infantry charge led by CitDog and a band of misfit reenactors.

Big ups to BlueHenSinfonian for coming in and closing it out. It's great to have a guy in the bullpen you can rely on.
http://www4.pictures.zimbio.com/mp/p2lE8ZYzeSps.jpg

Rob Iola, for his invaluable insight and helpful tips along the way like not to pick my nose before sending in the answers.
http://branthansen.typepad.com/.a/6a00d8341cae3d53ef01116846cef0970c-400wi

Ursus for the open and honest way this competition was handled. We go together like cocaine and waffles.

And to anyone I've forgotten, big thanks. Boogity boogity boogity. Amen.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

xlolx

Nice work.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

I'm missing one address I believe.


UNHWildcats05

I don't think I have yours to send the magazine to so could you pm it to me?

[Smitty]

Wow had no idea I actually won... Saw the 3 before me and figured somebody else did. Thanks!

[49RFootballNow]

Ursus, maybe next year we can modify the format of the contest in some way so it doesn't so heavily favor the person with the quickest internet browser? Just a thought.

There will be other options going forward in other contests but I wanted this one to be a race for the quickest search abilities and so forth. They won't all be drag races.xthumbsupx

[DG Cowboy]

Two groups next year. Under 65 and 65 or over. Getting tired of waiting for those damn horses.

Yeah, getting around my work webblocker was a b****. It doesn't like websites related to evil "sports".

[superman7515]

Guess you'll just have to get a new job. ;)

[ursus arctos horribilis]

Guess you'll just have to get a new job. ;)

The Polk is being sent to the address you've already provided. It will be shipped out of Portland, OR either tomorrow or Wednesday.

Send me a pm if I have anything wrong there.

[Grizzaholic]

Rob...if you want to pursue the conspiracy that is against you winning I know someone that can help you.
