NOW CLOSED. Click here for the latest contests.

We’re  starting off Free Stuff Friday early this week because of the early morning traffic we’ve seen in anticipation of our contests. We’ll start off with a four-pack lot of 2009-10 Rookies & Stars basketball cards from Panini America that can be yours right now …

How can you win? Follow the directions below and answer the questions below in a comment right here …  it’s that simple.

Tips: Don’t try stuffing the comments box — we’ll check IP addresses — and make sure to include your name and email address so you can be contacted if you win. (Also note that you will see your comment on your screen after posting but that does not indicate its order of posting as it has not yet been approved. WordPress’ time-stamping of comments once all are approved will determine the winner.)

Get the questions after the jump …

EARLY BIRD CONTEST — A four-pack lot of 2009-10 Rookies & Stars basketball cards from Panini America.

1. Who is that on the Rookies & Stars wrapper? (Yes, we’re making this one really, really tough…)

We’ll randomly select a winner from all of those with the correct answer just before we launch our first contest at 10 a.m. Central time. Remember to include your name and email address with your entry… or you will be disqualified.

Be sure to refresh on the contests throughout the day — we’re giving entries with wrong answers the boot and approving those comments first.

Note: Next contest at 10 a.m. Central.
