NFL Swampcrash 2023 - The Mother Humping Pro Bowl

Jerloma · Post by **Jerloma** » Mon Feb 12, 2024 12:51 pm

I like to give Ryan shit sometimes, but coming up with new, unique questions for this every week has to be an absolute, Herculean task. I get to do it once this week though as he prepares the epic 20 question Super Bowl. There are no head to head matchups of course and the lowest score will be the Pro Bowl winner. Apologies if any of these questions have been asked before!

SCORING

-Correct answers get a score equal to the number of people who said it
-Wrong answers get the value of the highest-scoring correct answer +5
-If you're the only player with a one-pointer, you are credited with a score of -1
-Low score wins

INSTRUCTIONS

-Send answers to jerloma (gmail) or private message here
-Unless you're giving something away by asking, bring up any questions or clarifications in the weekly thread so everyone can see the answer. I will NOT be emailing any important updates to questions that may affect answers, so it's on you to keep up before submitting, blah, blah, blah

There are teams in LIV golf? How the hell does that work? Good questions, but man some of these are difficult.

Thought this was the flag football version.

I can confidently answer three of those questions, I believe. Educated guesses for another 3-4.

I had some jokes lined up, but two more potentially correct answers popped into my head, one I'm 90% certain is correct. I think if I sit with these, I may be able to come up with some legit guesses.

I'm going to boycott the golf question.

Apologies to Loma for my email response today. I didn't read this thread or even the email before I responded. I thought he'd emailed his answers to all of us.

Sorry J-Lo

In. Those were some great questions. Can't wait to see the reveal for #10. And I liked how there were no geography questions, kinda like there's no tackling in the pro bowl.

Having no deadline is one way to stop us from apologizing for being late.

I put in a Pro Bowl-level of effort into my answers... which will leave them virtually indistinguishable from my regular season play.

I also don't believe I should have been voted into the game.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Tue Feb 13, 2024 1:02 pm

Yeah, I don't know any of these and its making me want to run a counter-game to make everyone feel good again.

Sent - This week’s quiz got me thinking about how Win Butler from Arcade Fire would play really well, trying very hard during those celebrity basketball games during the NBA ASG weekends way back when.

So seriously, do the kids today still feel this way or is this a gen-x indicator, like "selling out"?

Ryan · Post by **Ryan** » Wed Feb 14, 2024 7:00 am

It’s gotta be worse now. “That kid’s a tryhard” is their introduction.

(Don’t do it)

I used the word "sway" in a sentence just to bug my daughter. It worked.

I honestly wasn't going for difficult here, but yeah in hindsight all of these questions originated from whatever useless shit happened to be floating around in my brain this week, so that adds up.

Gonna shoot for lunchtime reveal tomorrow but I'm fully expecting like 4-5 of you to send them at 11:59 and then tell me to go fuck myself, which is definitely the right play here.

Mister Turd, if you need another week I’m willing to fill it by aggressively going in the opposite direction.

Guys, the spreadsheet doesn't seem to be tallying the scores and Ryan is MIA so this might be a bit slow.
