Washington Post's New Editorial Team -- TDAAWC II Andy Cobb

No, really, this is a gin-u-wine contest being run by the Washington Post. Actual prize: $2600 dollars.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/opinions/pundit-contest/rules.html

I hope the winner changes the prize into pennies and rolls around in their loot, Scrooge McDuck-style. When a once-proud American institution is crumbling around you, you might as well wallow in its remains.

UPDATE/CORRECTION: It's been pointed out that the huge mammoth grand prize is in return for less than a full year's worth of contest participation and writing. I thusly amend the cheesy animated gold "a year" text, but the message stands: if you're going to tarnish your brand with a "pundit contest," at least don't be such cheap bastards about it. Next Nike will get their work done for cheaper-than-legal wages as well by offering a "contest" for the "Next Great Air Jordan Stitcher Upper."
