SUNDAY SUPER STEELER OFF-SEASON CONTEST!!!

[NKySteeler]

Man, is anyone else as BORED as I am on weekends this time of year?!.... Brenda is still in "recovery mode", so physical activity is out of the question... :? ... And my golf partner is out of town... The "grill-out" is already completed, so I'm stuck just roaming the boards.

...OK, here's a contest for you all that runs thru tonight only. Consider it a "perk" for those of you that actually visit the Steeler forum during the dog-days of the off-season on a weekend like me... Answer the two following questions to win the "ultimate prize"... :wink:

1. I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100. What is it?

2. I am thinking of a former Steeler. He was born on August 30,1947. Played 13 seasons with the Steelers. Wore a fairly "popular" number. Has four Super Bowl rings. And started 177 games on offense... Who is he?

...The trivia question about the former player must be correct, but the closest to the number will win... So put on your thinking caps, warm up that Google button, and best of luck! .... As I said, the winner gets the "ultimate prize" (obviously not the greatest in the world, but not bad either, considering it's free for just putting a little thought into the question!... And it IS Steeler material. :wink: )... First to answer correctly wins. The prize will be revealed afterwords.

:Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel :Steel

the player is John Kolb but.. the # is... 56 (he was the 56th pick i believe)

[NKySteeler]

We have a winner!.... Actually, the only contestant.... :?

...The number was actually 69. I haven't been able to fool around much lately due to Brendas' surgery (sorry, obviously not football related).... :twisted: But you got the trivia question correctly.... Look for a PM from me in the next few minutes....

You win a copy of NKys' 75th anniversary DVD. Including "Spotlight: 75 years of Steeler football", "Steelers 75th anniversary event coverage", a story about the 75th anniversary exhibit at the HOF, and a town hall meeting with many past Steelers... 3 1/2 hours of black-n-gold viewing....

...Thanx for playing, and thanx for viewing the board on the off-season weekend... :wink:

Cmon NKy...the number between 1-100 should have been 43, as in Super Bowl 43. :wft

The number 43 just doesn't give me the same "rise"....... :lol:

....But jbirt gave me a very good idea, and we will be doing this again soon.... :wink:

...Guys, I tried. I really did... I used the links MJG provided for me several months back, but just can't get a handle on it in any way... I will leave the creativity and comedy to those that are obviously more talented than I am.... I'll just criticize and vote!... :lol:

PhotoDraw is much easier to use than any of those others. PM me with an email address and I'll send you the info to get it from me for free.

Unless you're chicken.... :D

Wha?????.... You lost my e-mail address???... I'm crushed, and may not be able to sleep tonight! :lol:

...Actually, I am a bit "chicken"... But more challenged with a steady hand when using the cursor and mouse (problem before...). Go figure. I can fly a plane from coast to coast, but can't photoshop a donkeys' head onto Chad Johnsons' body.... :?

I remember it vaguely but I'm not 100% on it.

You really should give it a try...it's not that tough!

Btw, do you ever fly to GB for any reason? Or if you do is it a stop and go type deal?

Sorry, GB isn't big enough for what I do "size-wise".... Not being a smart azc, but that's really the truth... I usually do trans-con and South America...

I'll PM it to you. I'm out of town most of the week, but will try it when I get back. Thanx. :wink:

No insult taken...I find it comical that Green Bay has an "International" airport. :lol:
