Matt E., the new Glauber Nation Playoff Picks champion
Congrats to Matt E., who held off the competition in what turned out to be a stirring finish in the second annual Glauber Nation Playoff Picks Contest.
He held off Daniel by a game, although we're a little disappointed that Dan the Man decided he'd pick the opposite of Matt E. just to have a winner. The purpose of picking the score was to break such a tie. Oh, well.
Congrats to one and all for playing.
And a special congrats to Big Ben is Back! (aka BBiB!), who brought the family down and got a chance to see the spectacular game in person. He may have wiped out a good chunk of his kids' college fund, but the trip was still worth it in his mind.
(Matt E. can now have his name in lights if he so chooses. You know. A picture, a real name, a bio box that lists his favorite stuff in life, etc. In the meantime, we did hear from Matt E. this morning, and he's already puffing his chest to the blogosphere. Well done, sir.)

KUDOS to MATT E...
In the tradition of The Masters and the Giants win last year, it's a
pleasure to pass on the "Blue Jacket" to the new champion, Matt...
already looking forward to the 3rd Glauber Nation Contest.
Hmm, something seems off about my place listing...
Hey, Mr. Glauber, since you're becoming quite the NFL mucky-muck, I figured I'd suggest this to you.
No, its not fire a certain coordinator (this time)...
Overtime rule change:
Suggestion 1) How about making it first team to score atleast 6 points, instead of sudden death?
OR
Suggestion 2) How about Field Goal doesn't end things. The scored upon team gets a possession. If they fail to score, they lose; if they score a TD, they win; if they get a FG, game continues.
I think either method makes things more fair, adds more strategy, and makes OT more exciting.
What do you think? Wanna ask your readers if anyone else has ideas?
Then if you like something, you can now take it right to the top of the NFL!
Congrats Matt E and everyone who beat me out...
And ha ha to those I beat!!! (j/k)
And an uncomfortable shrug to those I tied...
Don't know how many of you clicked on to Matt E's blog.....
I did.....
He referred to the rest of us losers as NERDS???
All well and good Matt E...or should we now call you Stan (NOT Dan) Gable?
A tip of the hat to Matt E.
Truth be told, Zona was my pick two weeks ago, I just lucked out that he wanted Pitt.
Well I didn't exactly luck out, since I, y'know, lost... but you (collective you) know what I'm saying.
Thanks for the kind words, gentlemen. It was a pleasure matching wits with all of you and I'm honored to be your champion. I will make you all proud during my year-long reign as champ (and that may or may not include wearing a tiara).
And, 505, in my blog post I included MYSELF among the nerds I spoke of. We are one and the same. Some are just a little better at picking football games.
Okay, fair enough Matt E.....so....as the winner of this year's contest....do you wanna be Skolnick, Poindexter or Booger Dawson?
Does this answer your question:
Back in college, I wrote Curtis Armstrong a letter asking for an autographed 8x10.
I still have it.
