Neil Best lands spot in Sports Hall of Shame

sports.jpg
Best thought he'd be a smart aleck and pick the opposite of what I picked in Round 1 of the second annual Glauber Nation Playoff Picks Contest. He did so by picking the Chargers, Cardinals, Ravens and Iggles.

Then he made his predictions for 2009, and his first one was a Peyton Manning-Eli Manning Super Bowl in Tampa. That would mean the Colts would have had to beat the Chargers on Saturday night.

BBiB!'s officially sanctioned spread sheet had Best at 4-0. Best demanded that he be 4-0, despite his obvious attempt to cheat.

Now it is all over the Internet.

Here's more on the controversy.
I expect we'll be seeing Best's resignation within 48 hours.

I expect we'll seeing the news of this on Deadspin in short order. Mantz has already written it.

Meanwhile, the drama will continue with Round 2 of the picks contest. Please don't make your picks yet until the official ballot comes out later in the week. I see that some folks have posted their picks, but I don't want BBiB!'s head to explode trying to find everyone's picks in different posts. So we'll wait until later in the week to post the ballot. Thanks for your patience, and we'll keep you up to speed on Best's status.

I don't know, Neil. If you cheat at this, maybe everything is a lie. Your name for instance.... What's your real name? Neil Also-ran?
Neil Coulda-won? Neil Close Second? Neil Hedger? Inquiring minds want to unravel this mystery....
