Get your survival pick in before tomorrow night’s game, and you might as well do your weekly picks then too so you don’t forget. If anyone wants to invite off-board friends, go ahead, we could use more people and it’s not like they’d be taking away limited slots.
My picks are in for Survivor and Confidence.
We have 2 other non-fantasy NFL competitions going. The betting competition and the yardage pool. You can join either of those later than season 1, but if you’re interested, get your picks in now for a full participation this season.
Don’t forget that Thursday night games run throughout the year now. Survival pick isn’t due until 10am Sunday though.
Sorry, Beef, but I’ve got Baltimore in Survival. Looking for them to come out angry after getting abused last week.
I thought about Baltimore, but I figured what better week to take Oakland?
And how am I leading the confidence pool? I stink at confidence.
And while it effects everybody equally, I hope Yahoo gets it together with the spread picks. The removal of the Jets/Patriots game seems amateur.
Stuffy, our week’s winner, had the Jets at 14 confidence points. And I have to wonder, since everyone picked Atlanta at an average of like 12.6 confidence points, did he click the wrong team?
Edit: He picked Atlanta in the straight up league, so I have to figure that was a fortuitous error. Ha.
I hope thag’s what it was. I was telling everybody at work about the nutcase in my pickem league that bet it all on the Jets.
I’m nervous about picking Dallas in the survival league. 2/3rds of the remaining survival players picked them. Jeff Tuel is starting for the Bills, which makes me want to pick the Chiefs. I’m still kind of baffled that the line is only -4 Chiefs and only 2% of the survival players remaining picked the 8-0 Chiefs against the 3-5 Jeff Tuels.
I’m really tempted to pick the Chiefs and let 2/3rds of everyone lose when Minnesota pulls out a surprise.
This year has been odd with a few weeks where there’s an obvious pick and not others. This week I think 75% of the remaining survivors went with Tennessee lacking other good options. Massacre. Everyone got a strike.
We have a four way tie in the survival league. Lno’s Noodles, SenorBeef, Garygnu, and MadTheSwine all got a strike with Tennessee against Jacksonville, then Detroit against Tampa Bay.
We are resetting the survival league and it runs through the playoffs. Get your picks in.
Beef, it’s not showing that the league’s been reset for Survival. Is there a trick or do we have to enter in a new league number?
I’m not sure what the issue is on your end. I’ve made a pick this week and 3 other people have also. I’m not sure if there’s anything I can do.
I couldn’t make a pick either. Now I realize I was playing in group 6927 all this time instead of 6926.
And that was the problem. Pick made. Thanks for the tip.
Huh - so was I. That league ended the same week with a 5-way tie between: BigDadWolf,
Cheddarbrain, Week 3 loser, Isotopes, and Fear the Turtle.
I am signed up for 6926 now.
Aha, no wonder the main league was short this year. There was a glitch when I was recreating the league and seemed to make two leagues, I didn’t realize. I guess you guys took an e-mail invitation to 6927 and the thread had 6926. Blah.
I’m not in 6927, so I don’t know who the commish would be, if anyone, but I can’t reset that league.
No problem - anyone who is watching the thread can sign up for the reset 6926 league like I did.
Presumably we would have ended up with a nine-way tie if we were all in the same league.
Considering that Yahoo was giving a spread all week before the Thanksgiving games, I think it’s rather crap of them to switch them all to off at the last minute. If the Pittsburgh game had stayed at Steelers +2.5, I would be 3 for 3 right now.
