We Did It!

All the people who joined the pickem challenge have already proven that they are bigger winners than the rest of the people who work at Chick fil A. Unfortunately not all people are as awesome as others. Here be ye standings!

CFA league

#1   5-1 Josiah-boy-  He lost his first game yesterday after starting off 5-0
      5-1 Erika-   Probably copied off of Josiah's sheet, but that's okay when you are 5-1
#3  4-2 Ben- My infallible wisdom has only failed twice!
      4-2 Spencer- doing very well so far despite his inexperience.
#5  3-3 Grant Wilson- despite using an unorthodox pick-the-team-with-the-most-wins method, he finds himself with an even record.
      3-3 Kage- used a crayon to make his picks. He is my favorite....
#7  2-4 TOMMY! Filled out his sheet by circling the left half of the paper and drawing a stegosaurus. Also presented a tiebreaker of 1468
     2-4 Kierra-  made her decisions based on gut reaction. This of course means that she will come back and win!

Family!
#1  5-1   Matt-  Living on top after only missing one game
      5-1   Mom- Lost her first game yesterday
#3  4-2   Ben- still only lost two!
      4-2   Dad- surviving some risky picks to make it to four wins
#5  3-3   Brett- made his picks with a coin
      3-3   Beth- made her picks by picking opposite of Brett
      3-3   Kelsey- always just does well enough to beat me at these things
#8  1-5   Brianne- always does poorly enough to lose to me

One True Champion...

The harvest is many, but the workers are few...

          By that I am not referring to the Kingdom of Heaven, I instead speak of the number of participants in the Bowl Pickem Challenge 2015-16 from my homies at Chick-fil-A. The showing is looking slim, so slim that even if I turned sideways, I wouldn't be able to hide behind it!

          There are currently four members of the league that have filled out their sheets and turned them in, Because of this, I will have a hard time coming up for material when I update the blog, and worse, the prize is going to be too fantastic for a five person league!

          I am looking at a minimum of $10 for the prize. Of course, the prize will increase as I become richer over the winter break with all of the extra hours I will inevitably be taking on. So to all of those who think that they are not good enough. Lemme tell you a story

        Once upon a time, my sister was a helpless mess. She couldn't even pronounce half of the teams, and she was completely unable to make any decisions. I happened to be munchin' on some cookies at the time, so we came up with the best plan ever. I held two cookies- one in each hand- and I listened to her list off the teams. I took a bite out of one cookie for every game that she said and based on which hand I chose, she made her selection. That year she won decisively and took home the bag of candy!

          I do say! Believe in yourself! Don't let your dreams be dreams! YOU CAN WIN THIS THING!

Always remember that I will be here to make fun of you along the way....

Take me out to the bowl game!
