We are down to just 22 left in our original survivor pool and 19 in the second half survivor pool. How long can these guys – particularly the original pool players – last? It seems like eons since I got kicked out of that pool. Oh yeah, I guess it has been a while…
Last week was not without a few casualties. It is like we’re slowly, excrutiatingly peeling the band-aid off to finally get down to a winner instead of just ripping it off in one swift swoop. A variety of picks, and a few guys drop on an unlikely upset. That is our current M.O.
The main culprit last week, the Denver Broncos, losing to the Washington Redskins and the Ladell Betts show. Just when you thought the Redskins were never going to pull their act together, they knock out Kyle Orton and drop the once darling Broncos for their third straight loss.
JLPejic and good buddy killdemwitit had Denver, along with allie618 on default pick Atlanta (I hate to do it, but it is in the rules) are out in the original pool. brokehydrant and fadeleyp are out in the second half pool. We bid adieu! It was nice knowing you!
On to Week 11, I’m picking the Steelers, Patriots and Cardinals. Has anyone used all three of them yet? Not too many have used the Cards at all, and don’t look now but they are a darn good team. Mind you, I did recommend them back in Week 8 against when they blew it against the Panthers, so you know how this goes… picks are for entertainment purposes only… use at your own risk, etc., etc.
If you are still alive, no matter what team you ultimately decide to pick, make sure to get it in before the 1:00 deadline on Sunday. It is U.S. Thanksgiving next week so if you’re looking ahead, picks for those games will be due before kickoff of the first game on Thursday. Survive Week 11 first though and we’ll see you back here next week.
