Blue PVC Pipes in North Denver...

______________

Yes, it's once again time for our FREE 2011 Beat TVGuy Oscar Pool Contest-vaganza...

The rules are these...

1. Email me your copy of the below categories by Saturday Feb 26 2011.. let's say 3pm MST shall we? Send them to denvertvguy AT gmail DOT com...
2. To win 1 of 3 fabulous prizes (I mentioned the FREE part, right?) you must finish in the top 3 AND defeat my total as well. I'll post my selections Sunday morning.

So, 2 rules. Life's pretty complicated. This isn't.

I guess if there were to be a third rule it would be To enter, I have to know you, or you have to be a friend/family member of someone I know.

So 3 rules. So enter already.
