We have a winner!

I almost asked MAM to pick a number between one and five….but figured she’d pick 4, since that’s her favorite number, and that’s how old she is….so I went to random.org.

Their favorite number is 4 today as well!

So…..Mami2jcn, you are the winner of the Wendy’s gift card! Congrats–look for an email from me. Thanks for playing, and there are a few more giveaways on the horizon…

Don’t forget to recommend a high school senior for the Wendy’s High School Heisman–the deadline is October 1! www.WendysHeisman.com

Twitter Babes Fantasy Football

Gee, I can’t wait to see what kind of google searches that title matches with….

But it’s a totally accurate, truthful title to what my new fall past time is–fantasy football, with my Twitter Babe friends (#FFLBabes) . So far, I think I’m doing ok. I admit, with the exception of my QB (Purdue Alum Drew Brees), I let autodraft do all the work. But now, three weeks into it, I remember to check on my boys before Sunday, to make sure that no one is injured and everyone is likely to play on Sunday. That’s the extent of my strategy so far. I will say though, I’m paying attention to more teams than the Colts because of this experiment. New Orleans is suddenly important. Pittsburgh (my defense) is suddenly important.

So here’s the question–who are your favorite (current) football players? Here in Indy, of course, the Colts are still all the rage, and they are doing well this season.

What’s your favorite team? Anyone else in a chick-only Fantasy Football League?

Wendy’s High School Heisman–and a free lunch!

My kids are a few years away from high school, but I was happy to hear about the latest youth-friendly initiative from Wendy’s. The Wendy’s High School Heisman is an award that recognizes outstanding student athletes. Eligible teens must be graduating with the class of 2010, have 3.0 GPA and play a high school sport.  There are prizes and recognition for all levels of this award program, and 12 lucky recipients will attend a special award weekend in New York City.

Do you know an outstanding high school athlete? Encourage him or her to apply–the first 41,100 applicants will receive a free Wendy’s gift card ranging from $5-$50 for applying. The deadline is October 1, so time is of the essence. More details can be found at www.WendysHeisman.com.

FREE LUNCH

Are you ready for a free lunch? I ‘ve got a $20 Wendy’s gift card for one lucky reader. Just leave a comment and tell me one thing you liked about high school and make sure you leave/link to a valid email! Good Luck! Comments will close sometime on Sunday.

Disclosure: I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Wendy’s and received a gift certificate to giveaway and to thank me for taking the time to participate.
