Subject: Sport GOOmba

GREG sounded a little disappointed about the outcome of the tie-breaking "Superbowl Shoot-out" (talking to the car guys), He-(GREG),re-capped the mix-up and sudden change in rules/????...................Although GREG may have been edgy about things not turning out as was planned, it made for some really good live /drama/entertainment.!

In case you missed it,the two tie-breakers were told to study-up on Superbowl trivia for a tie-breaking decision to win the RECLINER. Rules stated that all sources of refrence info. were acceptable,but a time limit to say the answer.

One of the contestants,mis-understood,and only studied & had materials for THIS year's Superbowl, she was granted questions from this year only. The other contestant complained that she was getting hard questions from ALL Superbowls!

Then they threw out the first round and started over with this year ??'s (made-up on the spot)

Although there was some tension for GREGG,the players,and even the man from the store that was giving the recliner,this was a really entertaing moment in RADIO.

*Mr.Talkonline came in 3rd in the contest btw.I might get him the recliner anyway,DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE STORE?

I must correct and comment,1st I missed by 1 point in tying the two ladies so that means I came in third my apologies to Mr. Talk cause he's a swell fellow :)
Next no offense but that contest was as painful to listen to as getting teeth pulled with no novacaine!!
I like both ladies as talk radio goes but Puh-leeeese. Five questions from 2 elderly ladies who are casual sports fans at best was a little too much in my opinion!! All in all it was a COOL contest but sadly the gals didn't have the spunk to keep it up a notch BAMM!!!

When there is a tie or multiple ties in sports the standing are inversely affected...if you watch the draglines on say foxsports or ESPN and you see leaders you may see 3 or 4 people in 1st place then 3rd or 4th place so thats how its works when it comes to standings and sports.. Hope I've made my point clear ;)

And he is the one who told me that he was "third", I just ASSsumed that there were two first place (tie),a second (or more), and a third.....I'm not sure how the dif. sports do it? Like running, and swimming?....I thought (wrong,I guess),that was how it is done!..........(I must have still been thinking 'bout the arbtron ratings???-Yeah-'that's how they do it.????(You could have any number tied for any place,and the next place will have the next consecutive #,not skip a place????.......OR so I thought????)
