Football: Beat the LoCo Experts - Week One Contest!

(Aug. 26, 2010) - VivaLoudoun.com editor Dan Sousa and Loudoun Times-Mirror sports editor Carl Lukat are cooking up something new this football season -- and no it is not Sousa's Sliders or Lukat's Lambchops -- it is a Beat the LoCo Experts style football pick'em where Sousa, Lukat and other area sports writers give their picks each week and the fans compete against them.

The fan with the highest number of correct picks each week will receive a VivaLoudoun t-shirt (when they roll off the printing press which is hopefully in the next week or so! We promise!) and the fan with the highest number of correct picks for the entire season will win $100 ... courtesy of the VivaLoudoun fox! Honest!

Look for our experts picks tomorrow morning (If you think you qualify as a LoCo expert and want to be featured on our picks panel, just email us at dan.sousa@vivaloudoun.com). Jason Rufner, who writes for Gameday Magazine and the Loudoun Times-Mirror, and Michael "Moe" Murphy of Clarke County Sports have already joined the panel.

In the meantime, all you have to do to enter is to send us your picks for this week's games, please include your name and hometown. (If you want a nickname to be used on the picks leader charts, just let us know ... we are easy) ... email the winners to dan.sousa@vivaloudoun.com. Questions? Answers? Trivia We Can Answer?
