And The Winner Is......

Kerry! Looks like the photographer captured the true thoughts of Jonas Hiller for the contest. Congrats to Kerry and sorry it took so long for me to post this!

Jonas Hiller Caption This Contest

When I was doing my "Blueland Guest Goalie: Jonas Hiller" post, Kerry very graciously offered to let me use this picture. It cracked me up because Hiller is looking right at the camera. I thought it might crack some other people up, so I decided to turn it into a contest.



Entry #1 by Kerry
Jonas is showing that even he thinks goalies are sexy. Actually, he is thinking about what most guys think about.



#2 by Matt
In this entry, Matt gives a nod to my goalie obsession and my delusions by having Hiller say "If loving you is wrong...I don't want to be right, Virginia. wink."



#3 by Randy
In the final entry Randy jests with his buddy Kerry about his obsession with the Anaheim Ducks, more specifically his man crush on J.S. Giguere.


So look on the side of the blog and vote for your favorite. Voting will end midnight Wednesday!

Beat the Heat Summer Contest! Caption This!

While I was working on my Blueland Guest Goalie: Jonas Hiller, my buddy Kerry sent me a picture and said I could use it if I wanted. I was going to, but then started thinking of captions for it. I thought of several and cracked myself up and thought "hey, this could be fun!" So thanks to Kerry for supplying this awesome picture and a chance for us to have some fun.


This is the picture.



Get creative and think about a caption! Here are a few examples:



and some love for "Monsters Inc."


If you want to make a motivational poster, this is where I made mine:

It doesn't have to be a motivational poster. Thought bubbles would be cool, there is a nice space to the right of Jonas' head. You can email me your creations at sunshine36616@yahoo.com

The contest will run until midnight on Sunday, July 25. The prize will be determined later, I'm good for it! Maybe a beer at the first game, or if you aren't local, a trinket from the team gear store. I deliver! Ask Beth, I payed her vodka. Get to work!

The Crazy Leafs Fan Blog Contest

I have a few contests on the blog last season, Aaron won them all, lol. After a rather hilarious thread on the Thrashers official web board, I decided to go on and have this contest.

For this contest, you need to come up with a motivational poster "honoring" the Crazy Leafs fan seen in this video.


Rules:
The motivational poster MUST be related to the above video. It can be a screen capture, a picture from the game or a picture of really anything as long as you can make the caption relate and mock the above video.

You can see some examples as well as how this whole thing started on this thread:

Also, here are a few examples I whipped up.





Prize: I don't know. Something fantabulous. Maybe an autographed pic of your favorite player, whatever is on sale at the Team Gear store, a drink at the next game or an old Bobby Holik Bobblehead.

To enter: Email your creations to me at Sunshine36616@yahoo.com. Put "Blog Contest" in the subject line. I hope we have lots of entries. It will be fun!

Contest will go for a week, ending on Wednesday, January 27.
