The One and Only....January Contest

Ok, it's not really the only contest you'll see in January. I know that much is true. It is the first contest of the year for this blog.

Before I get to it, I will be doing a contest of sorts for all the monthly winners from last year in just a few days.

Now, back to the business at hand. I found a couple of these yesterday.




You may have read about them a couple of times on Night Owl's blog. I ripped them open hoping to get my own worst hit of 2011. What did I get you might ask? Go ahead, ask.

You'll have to wait for that because what I got is the contest. All you have to do is pick the team that you think is best represented in these two rack packs. Teams are available on a first come, first served basis and only one per person please. If there are unclaimed teams...oh well, those are the risks we take. Whoever picks the team with the most cards wins. In the event of a tie, I'll reward both winners. Simple enough.

Get to pickin'.

    The LA Dodgers. My verification word was "doxatine". Sounds like something you'd get addicted to -- like cards.

    I'll take the Cardinals. It's hard not to pick the O's but I just don't think it would be them.

    I have done a few of these as well and the Mets are usually well represented but since Dawgbones beat me to them I will go with the Angels.

    It's the Pirates. It has to be the Pirates. Anytime there is a big bag full of poo, it has to be the Pirates.

    Late to the game, not may teams left. How about Baltimore?

  30. CaptKirk42January 4, 2011 at 10:48 PM

    I was going to say Indians but someone already took that.

    Hmmmm OH probably won't happen since they are newer and these packs tend to be heavy on 80s to mid 90s but lets go with DIAMONDBACKS.

  31. darkshipJanuary 4, 2011 at 11:22 PM

    OH....,the Marlins are left. I'll take them!

  32. Greg ZakwinJanuary 5, 2011 at 12:52 AM

    Too lazy to check how many teams have been taken. If a team is left, I'll take 'em. If not, well, at least I saw True Grit tonight, so I'm a winner regardless!

    Seriously though, go see True Grit if you have not already seen it.

  33. Greg ZakwinJanuary 5, 2011 at 12:57 AM

    So I broke down and checked, Rockies and Rays are left if I'm not mistaken.

    Probably should take the Rays.

    But alas, I'll take the Rockies.

    Cool contest, thanks!

  34. maddingJanuary 5, 2011 at 1:27 AM

    I guess that leaves me with the Rays. Perhaps there are like 45 Travis Lee D-Rays cards in there.

    All out of teams for the poor night owl who can't read his blogs until 3:30 a.m.

    Oh well. It's not like I haven't seen what's in these things.

    Hackenbush, maybe "doxatine" would be what you would take to get over your addiction?? It looks like I'll be having a "tordallo" for lunch. Or maybe that is some hybrid cross between a tortoise and an armadillo!!
    This has been fun! Pull lots of Mets!
