Contests - prizes to be won!!!

The ROTB survey just recently conducted asked for additional thoughts to end the survey. I said we (ROTB members) should throw a lil' cash at a PayPal account to fund prizes for contests here at the ROTB. I don't know Coach .. Did I do wrong? Ahhh Whatever I love contests and contests with Prize/s. I would love for you to throw out some ideas for contests that we as fan here could enjoy. Jump!

If you have an idea for a contest throw it into a comment and we (ROTB fans) can play the game if the powers that be allow it. If we can agree then Coach (Jess) can control the PayPal account and we can have fun and win a prize or prizes. I would be willing to throw down $10 towards the prize for a draft contest but we'd need another $20 to make it really fun. Ask Jess if this is okay and if it is then we'll have a bit of fun and some prizes at the end. I have a fun contest but I am not willing to put up the entire cost for prizes. That is unless the prize/s consist of $10. I have a baby just days away literally but I'd love to have a bit of fun. So chip in ( if the Mods are okay with it) and we'll play some games.

My thought was a 2012 NFL Draft contest. The contest is simple. If you can predict, no matter the team, who selects the player and in order of the picks 1-32 with the highest accuracy you win. There would be 1 prize so get your picks straight. Let me know moderators as I'd love to throw a contest but if this is against the rules here at SBNation just let me know. I'm hoping we can have some fun here at ROTB! If ROTB is down on it I still may have a contest for the draft myself. So what's up ROTB? Contests yay or nay?

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of Revenge of the Birds' (ROTB) editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of ROTB's editors.

This is not a bad idea

Contests “run by the site” just have to have some legal language prepared. I don’t think “contests” run through FanPosts have to, though. I’m okay with the idea.

Like the Cardinals? Revenge of the Birds is where to go.
Like Arizona Sports in general? SB Nation Arizona is where you'll get it all.

I thought that if it was through ROTB it may require legal language so as to cover all bases.

If you would look into it I would contribute to a PayPal account for future contests here at ROTB. I just thought if we had contests with incentives it would drum up more activity here. If it’s to much of a pain then I’ll run a lil’ 2012 NFL Draft contest a few days prior to the opening gun. Just let me know Jess and I’ll proceed as needed.
