Create A Caption #11

by erivera7 on May 7, 2009 3:00 PM EDT in Diversions

When the photos started rollin' in from Game 2 last night between the Orlando Magic and the Boston Celtics, there was one picture that I thought was hilarious and I felt had to be used for a caption contest. I'm sure the community will agree with me.

The photo summed up the Magic's performance last night, perfectly.

Have at it.

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 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!

Definitely the funniest caption of the bunch so far (I'm still laughing out loud), but . . .

Your being a Celtic fan, I cannot in clear conscience rec’d it. It is sorta like a West Side Story of the message boards . . . although I do yearn for your comment; you’re from the other side and all of my friends would frown upon me and stop talking to me.
