    Re: SU survivor pool aka suicide pool.

    Any suggestions on what we should do if there's a tie in our contest here? In other words we need a tie breaker, what about we guess total points in the MNF game between the Steelers and Bengals this week, if by chance the Packers go down we can both pm our point totals to Borski ( if he agrees) Monday morning and the closest to the total wins.

    Sound fair, of does someone have a better idea?

    That sounds good to me. I also thought we could just keep picking if the Packers lose.

    No, that doesn't seem right to me. By that token wouldn't everyone else deserve a mulligan game? Once you've picked a non winner, you're done.

    So if we're agreed that we'll use total points for the Monday night game as a tiebreaker and Borski is willing to go along then I think that's the way it should go.

    But hopefully we'll be back picking again next week after the Packers take care of business tommorow.

    Only if the Packers lose tonight. Which at the moment doesn't seem to be at issue.

    Going out on the limb next week and taking the T.B. Bucs over Carolina. Well actually that's not really much of a limb is it? Oh well the Bucs it is next week.

    Re: SU survivor pool aka suicide pool.

    steeldevil made the same mistake I did, changing to a team that loses

    Believe me, it sucks

    and I guess we have a winner!

    Looks as if the Giants are doing their best to console you.

    If i still had the Giants in play I probably would have used them this week. As it is now, if that result holds up and the Giants go down the WIP suicide poll will go down to about 40 pages. Started off with about 300 or 400 I think. Anyway as long as I stay alive in that poll I'll continue to post my weekly picks here.

    Next week I'm either going Saints or Bengals?

    Re: SU survivor pool aka suicide pool.

    So, now what? Anyone wanna play again (no prize) or some other kinda Pick'em game? we can make a new tread for it if necessary maybe something like pick 4 games a week (kinda like how fox does on their pregame show) But it could be:

    Pick Random Game 1
    Pick Random Game 2
    Pick an underdog (based off point spread)
    and Pick MNF winner

    No elimination, just tally up the point total at the end of the season

    WIP down to 44 pages going into this weeks play, looks like it will trim about another 5 off this week, a lot of people went down with the Bungholes and Titans. I'm going Browns at home over Panthers for next week's choice.

Anyway here's what makes it hard and where strategy comes into play. You can only use any given team once in a season for your winning pick. ( you can go against the same team as often as you like though) So in other words if say the Colts are playing the Browns on a particuliar week, you can take your tap in putt and feel good about your chances that week. Problem is as the season progresses if you've used up all the good teams and all you're left with is bottom feeders, chances are you'll have no chance to win. For example if you think the Bears will probably suck this year, but this week you see them pitted against the Lions at home, this might be a good week to take the Bears.

    anyway I think you all get the jist.

    so make your pick before Sunday kickoff every week and good luck.

    p.s, don't anyone try to be a smart ass and pick the winner of tonights game tommorow morning.
    OK ready to do this again guys?
