Hey everyone, we are going to have a fun prediction contest this season for all US managers. Here is how it works:

USA NT Contest Week 1 vs Bolivia

Contest rules: Pick one answer for each question and post your answers in this thread (Ex: 1.A, 2.C 3.C etc). If you get the answer correct you will earn the number of points assigned to that answer. Some answers are riskier than others, so they are worth more points if they turn out to be correct. It's your choice, pick the safe answer and get some points, or pick the risky answer for a chance at more points! Obviously you must post your answers before the game begins on Monday at 7PM (Eastern) or your answers will not count.

Prize: The points you earn weekly will be added up and whoever has the most points at the end of the season will win 1 year of supporter complements of jfarb! We may have additional prizes. (USA managers only)
