Yeah, I wouldn't vote for the 1-0 because ostensibly you'd at least know you were in Canada (at a CFL game), so this wouldn't be that strange.

There were CFL teams in the United States at one point. Although they are not there now.

(B) is interesting in that it is impossible. You may as well have guessed "Pi-to-Elephant" as your score, since that is also impossible to achieve in an NFL game. So, it isn't real logical that that is what the question-asker is getting at either. That paradox should rule out all "impossible scores to acheive" guesses.

There was no specific detail saying it was an NFL game. Even though you said it was in honour of the NFL season.

Fair enough.

I forgot all about you Canadians having a "football" up there. Probably not coincidentally, I also frequently forget there is a WNBA, Senior PGA tour, and college baseball ("clink").

Aside from mistakes like 1-1 or the board saying "SHIP IT BATCH" or impossibly large numbers it would be 4-4.

Better then 250,001-1. So, coincidentally, is 4 of a kind in 5 cards.

TY for the setup to take $50 off your son. Now he's only 4 million 9 hundred ninety thousand nice hundred and 50 dollars up on me on side bets.
