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 โ€œalmost neuroticโ€ (His words not mine). On the Friday before game-day he wears his team, Seattleโ€™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 youโ€™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 itโ€™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 winโ€”you may even get a Surface Pro 4 to go with your new NFL Surface Cover.

  1. Buffalo Bills are my team! 14 years as a season ticket holder and still waiting for my first playoff game!!

  2. My favourite feature is definitely the long battery life! Nothing worse than having a device that dies after an hour or two of usage. 9 hours will keep you going all day long!

  3. The High contrast PixelSense display that reduces glare and eyestrain is definitely the winning feature for me!

  4. Man, I am such a huge Saints fan. Ever since Katrina (I have family down there) I have been a super fan, I fully converted by wife and we are black and gold on weekend, all weeked. We convert others when we host Monday night dinner with all our friends. I love the multi touch usage in the surface pro, and I am looking to get it soon.

  5. The feature I like the best is “Long battery life (up to 9 hours) so you can do your work wherever you are (even on the football field!)”

  6. Definitely the best feature for me is the long battery life. That seems to be the biggest problem for me – losing battery power and going through batteries quickly!

  7. Hard to choose just one feature. I’d say Convenient tablet/laptop versatility is likely to be number 1. I hate having multiple devices, so one that can perform multiple tasks is great in my books.

  8. My favourite feature is the high contrast PixelSense display that reduces glare and eyestrain, because that’s a problem I have when using computers.

  9. The tablet/laptop versatility is my favorite part. Use it as tablet most of the time but break out the keyboard when you need to do some serious work!
