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.

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 =)

The shit talk is what makes these things fun, especially for the guys like me who get a well-deserved pwning.

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.

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?

Always good when 5 go out in week 1.

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.

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.

I can't believe I was the only person to pick TEN. C'mon people, Miami losing is a sure bet.

We've learned a valuable lesson here, everything in Houston sucks.
That Kilt is gonna look pretty on the sidelines this season.

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.

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.

NEVER PICK RIVALRY GAMES IN A SURVIVAL POOL
Think that's a rule somewhere.
