main-imageThe NFL season is about a third of the way in. Are you surprised about who is topping the leader board? We all have our favourites and want them to rise to the challenge this year. Are you doing all you can to show your support? Do you have a game day routine?

My colleague Billy calls his routine “almost neurotic” (His words not mine). On the Friday before game-day he wears his team, Seattle’s, colours: he calls it blue Friday. He has his Seattle mug that can only be used on blue Friday, a different mug that can only be used on pre-game Saturday. He has his Seahawks pants, shirt, jacket that can only be worn, and MUST be worn on game-day. And Billy insists that the reason the Seahawks lost in week 2 is because he forgot to wear his Seahawks wrist-band!

And Billy is not too different from many of the thousands of NFL fans out there. Showing team pride matters!

Well now people can even dress their Microsoft Surface in one of six NFL team colours: Seattle, Denver, Pittsburgh, New England, Buffalo, and Green Bay. After all the Surface is already a big part of the NFL. Look on the sidelines during a game and you’re likely to see players and coaches using a surface to review plays, access game day strategy and more. You can do that and a whole lot more on a MS Surface. Here are some of the amazing features of the newest Surface Pro 4:

  • Convenient tablet/laptop versatilitysurface
  • High contrast PixelSense display that reduces glare and eyestrain
  • Multi-touch
  • Fast 6th Generation Intel processor
  • Enhanced security with Windows Hello so your surface knows it’s you
  • Long battery life (up to 9 hours) so you can do your work wherever you are (even on the football field!)

So if you have a Surface already, then this prize will be great for you to adorn it with an NFL cover. If you do not own one, win this contest, wear the new official NFL Jersey you win and head to your local Best Buy to spend the gift cards you win—you may even get a Surface Pro 4 to go with your new NFL Surface Cover.

  5. honestly the long battery life. I have the original surface which I love to death but need a battery upgrade (and overall upgrade) to the new surface 4. Im a surface fan for life! I still remember lining up to get the first one!

  7. My favourite feature is the compact size of the surface pro, giving it the ability to transform between a light weight tablet and laptop.

  10. The 6th Gen Intel Processor is my favourite feature. I’m a photographer so having the power of a laptop in tablet form is extremely useful

  12. The best feature is the 6th Gen Intel processor. It really helps make the surface pro a true productivity tool. I can edit photos on it and it’s as powerful as a true laptop

  20. Long battery life (up to 9 hours) so you can do your work wherever you are (even on the football field!) or in my case (the basement of a hospital hehe)

  26. Long battery life (up to 9 hours) is the best feature. Able to do lots of work with that long of a time

  27. The 6th generation intel processor looks great teaming up with long battery life. A one of a kind treasure.

  32. I would choose the Green Bay Packers jersey because I’m just a big cheese head at heart. How about a cheese head hat to go with it?

  35. I love the Long battery life because I hate it when I am doing something and i get the warning that I have 5% left power

  38. I like its mobility while travelling for work and also how fast I can run my engineering simulations on the go.

  40. I love the tablet/laptop convertibility feature. As a student, it would be easy to take notes on it with the Surface Pen in OneNote meaning I wouldn’t have to carry around my notes and also I’d be able to easily type out essays and lab reports. Coupled with 9 hours of battery life; the Surface Pro would be an awesome device to use.

  46. Best feature is definitely the multi touch. Being able to draw up a half back screen pass and having your OL coach draw up the pulling guard would be awesome…all on the same screen.

  49. My favourite feature is the high contrast PixelSense display. I work on a plane frequently so the reduced glare helps keep my eyes healthy.
