If you have $100 to blow on a suicide pool, 6949, then:

1.) I don't feel sorry for you for being an Eagles fan.

2.) I don't feel sorry for what you're going to catch from Matt Leinert.

Brian
1) I'm sorry that you weren't driven enough to attend and work your way through a good school.
2) I'm sorry you're not in on the sidepot because I really want to take your cash.
gooo buccaneers.
sooooo… anyone pick the saints this week?

EDIT: just took a look at the board - answer would be "nope". seth goes with oakland over detroit - gutsy. saving the big guns for later in the fight? two blanks - doesn't that mean they're out? and two votes for MIN over ATL… not my first choice, but what do i know.

I picked MIN because I'm saving the good teams (ie EAGLES) for later.
I'm glad to see I'm going to be in real good shape in the side bet after Atlanta beats Minnesota, Detroit beats Oakland, and Cleveland beats Pittsburgh.

wanna do an additional side bet? if cleveland beats the steelers, i'll pay your $100. and vice versa.
My experience is that most of these survivor pools are over after the first few weeks. Everyone goes for a "sure thing" and then there's an upset and most of the league is out. Don't worry about "saving" the good teams till later because it won't last that long. Go for the easy ones early on and three or four weeks into the season you'll have a better idea of who the cupcakes are.

I have the seahawks this week, and god do I hate them. My parents are season ticket holders, so it would almost be worth getting kicked out of the pool for those bastards to get pasted at home and I can call my dad and gloat.

Couldn't even relish them getting jobbed in the superbowl, because it was the phuckin steelers that won.

Yeh I'm bitter, we stopped going to Raider games because of this, and of course up until a few years a go the seapigeons were in the AFC West.

And the immaculate DECEPTION thwarted a dynasty in the making, but I digress…Go Seahawks ;)

True dat.

I am a bit fearful that I made the same week 1 pick (SEA) as a dozen others. In my experience, that greatly increases the odds that Tampa will win.
i'm torn… i'm starting hasselbeck and hackett in the fantasy league, so i want the 'hawks to kick ass. on the other hand, a tampa victory would greatly thin the survivor pool.

gambling can sooooo screws up one's outlook on sports.
How pissed is Seth gonna be when he is eliminated after the 1st game?

If you're not a paypal person, you can email me and we'll work something out.

If you fail to delete your entry by Thursday, you are on the hook for the $5.
Check your email. I'm still awaiting a reply from you.
