Subject: [NT] Prop Contest

Ran this last season, and intended to start it sooner this season.

Anyone may play. Simply answer "yes" or "no" to each of the 10 propositions about that weekend's NT match. There is usually some sort of tie-breaker.

When the contest finishes, the manager whose won the most legs will be declared the winner. In case of a tie, the manager with the most second place finishes wins (then third and so on until the tie is broken). The winner gets to select a player of their choosing (capped or uncapped) to play in a late season NT match.
