You pick the winner of one game each week - no point spreads involved. Your pick must win or you are done. You may only use a team once. Thus, if you pick the Saints and they win - you survive. However, you can never pick the Saints again.
Last survivor wins.

Use this thread for any problems for now.

I've made my pick. We currently have 4 players. |
We currently have 6 registered players and 3 of them have posted their Week 1 pick. I'm NOT going to check here then do it for you.
Please make sure you enter your pick at cbs.

BTW:
All Games will lock five minutes before the start of the week's first game. If a member does not make their selection prior to this deadline, that user will receive an incorrect pick for the week and be eliminated.
Please Note - All selections by pool members will be displayed in the view all picks area once this lock occurs.
Also, the rule that you can only use a team once is standard but I don't see it on the site.
Nevertheless, you can't use a team more than once and I will enforce it.

We currently have 7 players. |

Yeah man, I really thought the Giants were a lock and then I wouldn't have to use them later.
This is why I don't gamble. |

| Well, I'm out. I went back and forth all week between our game and the Patsies over the Cards. I kind of had this feeling we would lose. Glad I would have lost either way, having finally settled on the Skins. I see that everyone else who lost out also went on one of these two games. Only two people left. |

Half my survivor pool picked the Pats. I picked SF. It was sweet. Even though my daughter, who grew up in Connecticut, is still pissed at me. She's Skins #1 but Pats #2. |

Okay, picking the Pats isn't necessarily bad...but too soon. IMHO you wanna save the better teams until later on.
Who to pick this week?  |

The rules of my pool are you can only pick a team once, and you can only pick against a team twice. One team a week until something like week 13, then you have to pick two teams. You aren't knocked out until your second loss, which I think is a great rule.
So given that, I actually try to pick as many early games as I can against good teams so I save the bad teams to pick against later. I didn't rate Arizona as good enough to pick against now or bad enough to save for later. I did think Detroit is good enough to not want to save, but I thought they would lose in SF.
Ironically I think the people as you alluded to who picked the Pats were blowing their wad. And it backfired when they lost, double whammy. But I'm going for winning the pool, not just surviving as long as I can then having no one to pick. |
