Caption contest
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Caption contest
Week 48 Caption Contest results! First, the Honorable Mentions: Jason Williams: "Buddy, how many times do we have to go over this... I'm the baritone and you're the tenor!"; Renee Seidel: "Come on, seriously, where did you put my towel?"; darph nader: "Hey, you sing pretty good in the shower. You should join a singing group or something."; and Zazu: "Dude, you're supposed to be an Elf on the Shelf. Not the Fink on the Sink!"
And our final winner for 2014: Matt McBrayer, his second win over the past two years! Congratulations, Matt, and Sic 'em, Bears!
And that's a wrap for this year! I'll be taking one or two weeks off, but I will be back. (Yes, that is a threat.) Thanks to all who entered!

We are going to watch this play over,over and over again until we can make a decision.
The verdict should be in 2 days after the Super Bowl. Until then,stay tuned to ESPN,CNN and your local news for updates every 2 hours.

This is what they call karma. By all rights, it should have been the Detroit Lions playing the Packers, not the Cowboys.
