The 2012 Olympic Prediction Contest

I thought that it would be fun if we did an Olympic Team Prediction Contest wayyyyy in advance. So, from now until 11:59 PM CST on December 30th, you have a chance to enter our prediction contest!

Here are the rules-
1. By 11:59 PM CST on December 30th, you must submit the following via email
-Your First and Last Name (Only first name & last initial will be published)
-Where you're from (USA, Missouri, St. Louis etc)
-Your 5 Choices for the US Women's Olympic Team  (Worth 5 points a piece)
-Your 3 Choices for the US Women's Olympic Team Alternate (Worth 3 points a piece)
-Out of your 5 Choices for the Team, your choice for captain (Worth 2 points)
-Your Choice for US Women's Team Head Coach (Worth 4 points)
-As a tie breaker, what you think the Day 2 AA Score for the winner of Trials will be?
(Team Predictions who are alternates will receive 1 point, and vice versa)


2. You must submit a valid email address. This is the only way I have to contact you!
3. You may only enter once. Anyone caught entering more than once will be disqualified.
4. If there's any kind of legal mumbo jumbo forbidding you from doing this where you live due to your age or otherwise, by all means, do not participate.
5. Entries will only be accepted via email on the CONTACT ME page. Any entries submitted on Twitter or in the comments will be null and void.
6. While you do not not have to be from the US to participate, if you do not have a mailing address in the US or Canada, I'll ask that if you win, you'll meet me halfway on shipping costs for prizes.

Now for the prizes!!!

To ensure transparency on my part, I'll be posting all of the entries I've received on December 31, 2011 so there's no confusion in July about who predicted what. 

Happy guessing!
