Create A Caption #3

Let's double the fun, shall we? You have the option of creating a caption for either picture, or both of them if you're ambitious. The choice is yours.

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 24 hours, so whichever caption/comment gets the most recommendations, wins. In case of a tie, I'll determine the winner. 

 

Let the contest begin!

Dwight: Hey Grant, that doesn’t look like your hand holding that ball there? What happened?

Grant: Oh, I lost it in a freak rehab room incident but since I’m not playing for your team any more, I’ll just walk it off whereas i would have taken 9 months off and had three surgeries. I am pretty broke these days, though.

Grant: “Dwight, I’m telling ya, now that you have the big contract, you should just pretend to be hurt. You get paid lots of money to sit on the sidelines in a suit and "rehab”. It’s great."

I'm kidding, of course.

Although I wouldn’t put it past T-mac to do such a thing…..

Looks like we have a runaway winner here.

And deservingly so, because this caption was LMAO funny.

You know you’ve won when your comment gets “highlighted” .. 6 recs!

Second time a comment has been tinted green in the past few days. Pretty neat. Looks like the “recs” trend is starting to pick up, which is good because it’s a pretty dope way of rewarding a cool/funny/interesting/etc. comment.

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Nevertheless, I definitely remember Pat Burke. Thumbs up on the name.
