3rd Annual Gerry Bertier 2A Playoff Pickem Contest

[Gerry Bertier]

Yeah, Country it has been a weekend of disappointments. First, I can't win my own contest. Then, I drive up to Carbondale, just to have the Skyhawks blow a 20 point 2nd half lead. Man what a heartbreaker.

Gerry is a busy man, give him time.

Gerry is a busy man, give him time.

 

Yes I am a busy man. This is the last week of classes so being the wonderful responsible college student I am, I have put off all my major assignments for this week. Anyone up for writing a 15 page paper on why the North should help the South develop economically? So if I have time I will post the final results but we all know who won. So thanks for everyone playing and I will try to post the results.

I would offer help for your paper, but I myself am a responsible college student who just started and finished a 10 page paper on the wall street journal the night before it was due. When I had a teacher meeting and he asked how much I had done and I told him the truth he suggested I pursue a major in procrastination. Between going to college practice and running middle school practice I could never manage such a respected Pickem contest as Gerry Bertier 2A Pickem Contest. I missed getting in, but will next year. Good luck on your finals. I just can't believe that everyone thought Gatlinburg Pittman would win.
