    Post your boldest prediction in this thread and below your Avatar (as I have done). Click here to do it: http://www.sportstwo.com/account/personal-details

    Whoever makes the most outlandish prediction that actually comes true before Nov 24th, I'll kick out a $50 gift certificate to my e-commerce store (CookbookPeople.com). Simple as that. Why? Because I think it might be fun (and what the hell, maybe it'll get a little traffic to our site).

    I doubt a lot of you want recipe binders, but our bread box and our wood spoons are pretty damned popular, so you can always give either away as a gift for Christmas.

    We'll put it up to a vote on November 24th (Black Friday) the top 8 picks I choose. Voting ends the following Sunday night. Predictions look bolder if you get them in earlier, so you might want to put it up soon.

    I didn't run this by Denny or mods or anything, so hope you're all cool with it.

    I'm deleting this unless you send me a wooden spoon.

    Hah! Let me know if you really want a set via PM and I'll hook you up.

    I think it was you who shipped to me this sweet, sweet signed Wes Matthews jersey that's in front of my desk right now (and has been for a while). I won it in some past contest on here.

    Blazers finally trade for Melo and then he as a season ending injury during the preseason.

    Maybe it's time for Timmy to take you behind the barn.

    Your stuff looks great Mook. I remember you posting the bread box, but hadn't seen the other stuff. I'm going to keep your website in mind when Christmas time comes around. Those bfast in bed trays look great. Are they pretty sturdy and durable? Like if I bought one for a family member with kids too young to cook breakfast in bed for their mom would it hold up and be around in 10 years when they are able to do so?

    Also if you buy a set of the wooden utensils can each one be engraved with something different?

    You need to put this under your avatar. Read the contest rules, silly dog.

    BTW - I am almost certain my below the avatar prediction will come true. You can send my wooden spoon care of Dog, Poker Sly (I only eat my soup with diamond spoon).

    I can assure you this will not happen before Nov 24 - when the voting starts. If it does - I think you are entitled to an entire wooden kitchen.

    @riverman I figured it out. Type your prediction in the custom title bar. The save button is at the bottom of the page. At least mine was.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    $50 to advertise your site here with an excuse to regularly bump it for the next three months.

    Let me guess, this is the reason you joined the community. Just a damned marketing strategy and the worst part is, you were being upfront about it with your original moniker. We were all so blind.
