Title: Survival Football Post by: WayAbvPar on August 13, 2004, 02:24:13 PM Read the rules here (http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/footballs/rules/rules-01.html). Be the last man (or woman) standing! I set up a league with the following info-
Quote Group ID#: 15835 Maximum Teams 25 Start Week 1 Group Password f13.net Any and all are welcome! Title: Survival Football Post by: Shockeye on August 13, 2004, 02:49:15 PM I'm in for that. I figure week 1 will be the toughest since I don't really look at pre-season stats too much so I'll go for the stone cold lead pipe lock.
Title: Survival Football Post by: Madman on August 14, 2004, 04:50:54 AM Hah, I am in...I wonder what week I will pick the Bears.
Title: Survival Football Post by: HaemishM on August 16, 2004, 09:19:30 AM Hell yes, the Kilt Wavers will outpick all you punk bitches.
Title: Survival Football Post by: Paelos on August 16, 2004, 10:54:39 AM I'm in, and you shall all bow before the might of the Empire!
Title: Survival Football Post by: WayAbvPar on August 16, 2004, 01:08:21 PM I always go into these things with an overinflated sense of superiority- I tend to follow the NFL religiously, and so feel like I have a better feel for these things than the casual fan. Unfortunately, I end up overthinking things and outclevering myself...a lot of times, the guy/girl who didn't watch any of the games is the one who wins these things.
Still fun to do, and to talk shit all week =) Title: Survival Football Post by: HaemishM on August 16, 2004, 01:13:46 PM The shit talk is what makes these things fun, especially for the guys like me who get a well-deserved pwning.
Title: Survival Football Post by: WayAbvPar on September 07, 2004, 02:03:49 PM Bumping this up- first week's picks are due tomorrow by midnight (PDT, I think). If you are looking for a hot tip, Arizona, San Francisco, and San Diego are looking especially good this season.
Title: Survival Football Post by: Shmtur on September 07, 2004, 08:30:54 PM I joined just for amusement - I expect to be out within 3 weeks with my guessing skills...
Title: Survival Football Post by: schild on September 07, 2004, 08:47:55 PM My entire life, I've had no working knowledge of the NFL or football in general. Was always a fan of well....jai alai. You all have fun. The Kilt Wavers will pwn u.
Title: Survival Football Post by: El Gallo on September 08, 2004, 07:03:41 AM I have such bad memories of this game. I was one of two players left in a big survival pool (though in our version, you had to pick a loser every week and could only pick each team once). Had ~$4k on the line. And not only did I still have one of the worst teams in football available, they were playing one of the best teams in the league that week. Huge underdogs.
Remember that game a few years back when Cory Dillon broke the single-game rushing record as the Bengals shocked the Broncos? Title: Survival Football Post by: Abagadro on September 12, 2004, 10:07:20 PM Always good when 5 go out in week 1.
Title: Survival Football Post by: Madman on September 13, 2004, 08:31:25 AM I survived week one...barely. I thought St. Louis was going to lose to Arizona, but they managed to pull it out.
I am amused at all the people who picked Houston though and they lost to the Chargers. That was funny. Title: Survival Football Post by: Abagadro on September 13, 2004, 12:52:06 PM I was really hoping that Arizona could pull it out. Then 1/2 of the field would have been gone in week one. Heh.
Next week looks tough. Very few gimmies on the board. Title: Survival Football Post by: Shockeye on September 13, 2004, 12:52:30 PM I can't believe I was the only person to pick TEN. C'mon people, Miami losing is a sure bet.

Fucking shit-eating Texans. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU LOSE TO THE GODDAMN CHARGERS AT HOME ON OPENING FUCKING DAY YOU USELESS GOATRAPING TWATS!? Title: Survival Football Post by: Paelos on September 13, 2004, 01:42:23 PM We've learned a valuable lesson here, everything in Houston sucks.
That Kilt is gonna look pretty on the sidelines this season. Title: Survival Football Post by: HaemishM on September 13, 2004, 01:53:54 PM That Kilt was thrown over my head by Drew Brees as he bent me over to have his way with me. He took it as a trophy.
Title: Survival Football Post by: WayAbvPar on September 15, 2004, 10:30:38 AM The fucking CHARGERS, for Christ's sake. Can anyone name an offensive player other than Brees and LT the 2nd?
Well, I can, since I have Gates on a couple of fantasy teams, but that is beside the point. Dom Capers is supposed to be a defensive guru; if you team can't shut down the fucking CHARGERS, you need to get fired ASAP. Title: Survival Football Post by: Romp on September 21, 2004, 09:07:50 PM Chicago beats Green Bay in Green Bay? What the fuck?
Title: Survival Football Post by: murdoc on September 21, 2004, 10:30:28 PM NEVER PICK RIVALRY GAMES IN A SURVIVAL POOL
Think that's a rule somewhere. Title: Survival Football Post by: Shockeye on November 08, 2004, 06:04:32 AM A winner is me.
Title: Survival Football Post by: HaemishM on November 08, 2004, 08:57:03 AM Bitch.
