Hockey Survivor Pool Picks for Mar. 5: Bruins, Avalanche

Our original Hockey Survivor Pool is down to three contestants, and all three of them just barely survived a week ago. The pool rolls on though, and Iain and John are seriously running out of good pick options to write about. Iain gives it a go with his best two for our three survivors this weekend. Continue reading

Hockey Survivor Pool Picks for Feb. 26: Bruins, Red Wings, Maple Leafs

We are down to three in our original Hockey Survivor Pool, after we lost Eugenius last week. It has been an odd year for the pool, and hockey in general.

Hockey Survivor Pool Picks for Feb. 19: Sharks, Maple Leafs, Red Wings

Hell hath froze over. Iain is recommending the Maple Leafs for our Hockey Survivor Pool. Oh yes, the pool goes on even though we were dangerously close to deciding it last week.

NFL Conference Championship Picks – Bears, Steelers

Our NFL Playoffs Pool is completely undecided, even though plenty of entries can’t gain another point. Now we are on to the Conference Championships, with what should be two closely contested battles and ones I’m not that confident picking, but I will anyway. Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears should be one for the ages, and New York Jets at Pittsburgh Steelers is no slouch either. Enjoy! Continue reading

More Hockey Survivor Pool Picks for Jan. 22: Capitals, Canucks, Sabres

Here are some more opinions for our Hockey Survivor Pool players this week. Both Iain and John submitted picks, which was a misunderstanding for them but a bonus for us.
