Top 10 Sprint Goal Memes

I recently ran a Sprint Goal meme contest on LinkedIn on international cat day. Readers were invited to submit or create their favorite Sprint Goal meme, with bonus points if it contained a cat.
The winner of the contest would receive an autographed copy of my book ‘Driving Value with Sprint Goals - Humble Plans, Exceptional Results’.
There were 105 comments and I went through them all. These are the 10 best Sprint Goal memes according to my personal, subjective liking.
The winner doesn’t contain a cat, but it was so well-made and funny, it still was the best one IMO!

My only gripe is that it doesn’t contain cats, but the dialogue is witty and makes fun of Agile, Scrum, Velocity and Sprint Goals - and even Jeff Sutherland. I’m loving the satire! :)
