Create A Caption #39: Round 1
No words are necessary.
Rules:
I'm sure everyone here is familiar with a "create a caption" competition, but in case someone here doesn't know what this type of contest is ... basically a picture is provided and you, the reader, attempt to come up with a quick sentence describing what's occurring in the photo. The line can be funny, stupid, witty, etc.
I'll be a judge but I like to have another collective voice determining the winner, that way there's a bit of a consensus among the community. What I prefer for everyone here to do is this ... if you like the caption a fellow member has come up with, "recommend" it. That will be 'your vote', in essence. If you don't know how to "recommend" a comment, go to the comment you like, click on 'actions', then click on 'rec'. You can "recommend" multiple captions/comments, if you want.
So for a quick recap.
- Write a quick sentence describing what's occurring in the photo.
- If you like a caption/comment that's been written, "recommend" it.
- After you "recommend" a caption/comment, write something (like +1, for example) to indicate you like the sentence a 3QC member has written.
- The contest will last four days, so whichever caption/comment gets the most recommendations, wins. In case of a tie, I'll determine the winner.
- There will be two rounds in the competition. In the first round (Friday/Saturday), submissions are made and votes are tallied. At the end of the second day, the submissions that garnered four or more "recs/votes" will advance. In the final round (Sunday/Monday), votes are tallied for the eligible submissions.
- Winner will be announced Monday afternoon or evening.
- The contest is subject to change.
Let the contest begin!

Sorry...
…I wouldn’t touch this picture with a 7-foot pole.
I need to proofread better:
That should have read: “I wouldn’t touch this picture with a 7-foot Pole.”

Marcin: Don’t touch it. Its still pretty sensitive.
Life's too short. Be a fan. Orlando Magic, Arizona Cardinals,Tampa Bay Rays and of course "the U"! What a winning combo.

Double Foul !
Marcin points out to the refs that Kyle first tries to tackle him, then throws the ball at his nuts.

Yeah, I may have to "disqualify" a few submissions if they get enough recs. Unfortunately.

It took me a while to get it. Nice one.
As much as I admire Hedo, Michael Jordan of Turkey is either an insult to the GOAT or to Turkish Basketball.
Nice.

should think about bumping this back up to the top of the news page
I think it got buried under all of the Magic vs Celtics stuff. Not the usual number of replies/recs for a create-a-caption, and this one is a good one ;)
