Guess the Score, Win Stuff: At Mini Soda
Nobody ever reads this stuff anyway, just like nobody mentions Minnesota as a major Final Four contender. They'll learn. They'll all learn…donchya know.
How it works:
- Wednesdays I put up a winnable prize that consists of a desirable good.
- You guess the final scores of this weekend's designated game (football or hoops, depending on the season), and put it in the comments. First person to post a particular score has it.
- If you got it right, we contact you. If not, go to (5)
- The desirable good arrives at the address you give us.
- Non-winners can acquire the same desirable good by trading currency for it.
About Last Time:
Two people picked Ohio State to win. Of those two TroyNienberg picked the lower final score and won it. I know what you're thinking: can we get Adam Finley to become a regular commenter too and thus complete the c. 2002 kicking trifecta? We are working on that.
This Week's Game:
Michigan @ The Pogo Stick People tomorrow night. Bounce bounce bounce bounce.
And the Prize:
It's not time to grow up yet.
Fine print: One entry per user. First user to choose a set of scores wins, determined by the timestamp of your entry (for my ease I prefer if you don't post it as a reply to another person's score--if you do it won't help or hurt you). Deadline for entries is 24 hours before the start of the game. MGoEmployees and Moderators exempt from winning. We did not invent the algorithm. The algorithm consistently finds Jesus. The algorithm killed Goldy. The algorithm is banned in China. The algorithm is from Jersey. The algorithm constantly finds that the best conference alignment would be to put Michigan/MSU and Ohio State with the Illinois/Indiana schools, go to 9 conference games, and make PSU-OSU and the Brown Jug regular nonconference games .
. This is not the algorithm. This is close.
M 78-Minny 63
If you see someone in an airport with Michigan logos on luggage and they are wearing a pilot uniform come say hello.

84-77 Michigan wins
Except for the other thing. That hurts the most. But the lack of respect hurts the second most.
Michigan 73, Minnesota 71
I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?
77 -72 UM wins
Minnesota is too good and has too many athletes for it not to be close
"Slappin' the Bass" - Matt Vogrich (maybe)
I am a structural engineer and I know that that bicyle on the shirt has a flexural hinge waiting to happen. I could not wear the shirt in my right mind without modifying it.
I could really use a good ass kickin, but I would rather have my 200 dollars
63-61 Michigan
This is a very complicated case, Maude. You know, a lotta ins, a lotta outs, a lotta what-have-yous.
80-74 Go Blue!!!!
Those who stay will be Champions. 58-43-6
Minnesota 79, Michigan 74... hoping I'm wrong.

This game will be a harder game to win than Ohio.

Go Blue. That it all.

If I tell you it's Easter, you better start looking for eggs.
Some folks call it a sling blade, I call it a kaiser blade.
