Cindy asked me to repost this article of mine from newsguy.general to
newsguy.contests. Meant more as humor than anything else:



Subject: Cindy, my three year-old's football picks
Date: 1 Dec 2005 08:44:50 -0800
Approved: ***@newsguy.com
Message-ID: <***@news3.newsguy.com>

Our son, Benny, saw us doing football picks yesterday evening and wanted
to make his own. Since city names don't all that much to him yet, I read
to him the team names, and he gave me his answers. Here we go!

Wouldn't it be embarassing if he got more right than we did?

Four out of five times, he said "Rams" (St. Louis) If the Skins were
doing better, I'd arrange for an intervention.

"The...............EAGLES!" (Philadelphia), complete with some sort of
spin move and arm-pump.

And how many points? "TWO POINTS!" He's obsessed with basketball right
now, too.

This pick, though, might require an intervention.

So, there we have it. I promised him I'd submit his picks.
