CrossFit Games PICK 'EM

Hey Vic City,

The Reebok CrossFit Games start in just over one week's time! Athlete's have started to arrive in Madison, WI to get settled before the competition starts on Thursday, August 3rd. Although, we can't compete for the title of Fittest on Earth or the $285,000 cash prize, we can compete for something even better... ONE MILLION DOLLARS!

All you have to do is correctly guess the winner of the men's and women's competition... and 2nd to 10th place as well. And for good measure, you have to predict the top 5 in the team competition too, and everything has to be in the EXACT order, if you want to take home the cool million dollars. It's a long shot, about

1 in 888178419700100000000000000000000000000000, by my calculation, but a chance nonetheless. It costs nothing to register, just a couple minutes of your time.

to sign-up. There are consolation prizes, so there is also scoring for 'close' picks. All the details can be found on the above link under "how to play" and "rules"

You have until August 1st, the choice is yours.

Good Luck!
