Welcome to IWS #51. I'm hosting this one in place of IWS #50 winner, albionmoonlight. MIJB #19 called me cheap for taking over, so his score will be adjusted to ensure he finishes dead last. If necessary.

If you're new to this, read the rules below. Otherwise, jump straight to the questions, and get your answers in by end of day Tuesday.

Questions

1. Name the worst quarterback who currently has a starting job in the NFL.

2. Name the team that will win the Stanley Cup this season.

3. Past or present, name a professional wrestler other than Hulk Hogan.

4. Name the best current offensive lineman in the NFL.

5. Name the greatest sports movie of all time.

The Rules

The rules are the same as all FOFC "I’m With Stupid" Contests.

The object of this contest is to answer the questions posted, and to provide the most common answer among those submitted. For each question, your score will be equal to the number of people who submitted that response. Your score for the contest will be the product of your individual question scores. Highest score wins.

No collaborating in any way. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants.

All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this puzzle, i.e. the person posting the questions unless otherwise noted. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing.

Any references that are unclear to you, due to language or geography, should be understood to be authored from the perspective of an English-speaking American. However...

Your answers do not necessarily have to be correct in order to score points. If I ask "name a color of the rainbow," and you and four other people responded "black" - you get five points, period, even if it is not technically a correct answer to the question.

Submit your answers by Private Message to Maple Leafs before Tuesday 10/29/03, 11:59pm EST.

Maple Leafs · 10-27-2003, 09:17 AM

Bump for the after-weekend crowd. You have until tomorrow night to get your entry in.

So far, we have 30 entries even.

No clear favorite yet, but there's a solid chance that our winner could be a well-known FOFC name who's never won an IWS before...

Maple Leafs · 10-28-2003, 08:49 AM

OK kids, one last day to go. The responses has been solid so far (37 entries at last count). Let's try to break 40.

This is an all-sports, no-need-to-look-it-up contest, so step up to the plate. And if you've never entered before, why not give it a shot... From looking at the entries so far, you can be pretty sure you won't come in last.

Sent. #1 is a bit tricky because of timing. Some of the worst QBs have recently been sent to the bench (see Stewart, Kordell).

One last bump. C'mon folks, time to cowboy up*.

* I don't even know what that means.

I believe it means infield popup.

Nah, I think it means to serve up a gopher ball and watch it sail into the bleachers in left.
