Poll party
Saturday, December 26, 2009 at 8:05PM Hope everyone had a great Christmas - mine was wonderful - great to have a few days off, some quality time with the family, good food and plenty of fun.
The blog will resume in fits an starts over the next week.
I'm heading into a stretch of some steady shifts at the Free Press and there's a limited schedule of games I'll be shooting.
Still, I wanted to tie up a couple loose ends.
A trio of polls closed over the past 48 hours.
The first one stunned me.
What is your favorite Christmas movie?
National Lampoon's Christmas 47%
Christmas Story 26%
Elf 11%
It's a Wonderful Life 5%
Other: 11%
NLC is funny, but Christmas Story is my pick - I watched snippets of it four or five times over the past week and it never gets old. Not sure what the 'other' picks were.

What is your favorite Christmas TV special?
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 44%
The Grinch Who Stole Christmas 33%
A Charlie Brown Christmas 11%
Frosty the Snowman 11%
Other: 0%
Again, my pick didn't win - I'm a Grinch guy, but this poll had the most votes of any I've posted so far.

The next poll's results didn't surprise me - most people took the safe route.
Should the media name kids who are suspended from teams for breaking playing rules?
Always 13%
Often 0%
Rarely 25%
Never 63%
Don't know 0%

Really no debate here. Ony one team -- the Milton girls soccer team -- won a championship. Pretty obivous choice.
