And The Survey Says...
I apologize for my lack of action yesterday on Joeyballgame but I had a monster 6th grade basketball game that I was preparing for and X's and O's have become my life. After winning an OT thriller on Thursday with a free throw with .04 on the clock I had to make sure we didn't have an emotional let down last night. I totally unleashed the dogs and Mike D, my 6th grade Lindsey Hunter, sealed another 1 point victory with a steal on their final possession. This had to be the rowdiest 6th grade basketball crowd ever and I had to tell parents to get off the court several times during the game so we didn't get tech'd up. Playing in our gym is basically the Cameron Indoor Stadium of Bed Stuy Brooklyn. Best moment was a parent screaming ball don't lie after one of our kids missed a free throw. Totallyfuckinbelievable
Anyway, lets get down to brass tax cause I know people have put their lives on halt in anticipation of the caption contest winner being announced. I was incredibly impressed with the quality and quantity of our responses on the first ever caption contest and have decided to make this a weekly thing so keep it coming Ballgamers.
Without further ado I give you our bronze, silver, and gold medal winners...
BRONZE - Jonathon
This much love for The Mountie? Its like the Canadians completely forgot what The Big Bossman did to him at Summer Slam '91.
Comments - Not sure who Jonathon even is but I love that I don't know. Keep sending this shit to everyone you know people. Its the only way I'm gonna get famous. I'm talking like I want my grandma to hear about Joeyballgame from some dude at the senior citizen community center.
SILVER - Justin
After arguing over what should be included in their closing ceremony for years, the Canadian Olympic Committee gave up and just inflated everything listed under the Famous For tab on the country's Wikipedia page.
Comments - This was the most clever and well thought out caption in the contest. I would look for big things from this guy in upcoming contests. Well done.
GOLD - Eileen
Paul Bunyan's wet dream.
Comments - And the winner is Eileen! I love that she didn't pull any punches with this one. Just went for it. And we all know that Paul Bunyan beats off to giant beavers all day anyway so it just works on a shit ton of levels. Straight home run with this one, Eileen. Amazing
The Joeyballgame Caption Contest Prize Pack will be shipped out to Eileen early next week and will include a number of items, most notably my Bobby Gonzalez (head coach of Seton Hall) bobblehead. Enjoy Eileen, you earned it.
