WTF is that about? Weird. It's not a forum game at all.
Anything with a limit on the number of players gets moved here. Zaxxon's OONFL is a good example. Its the same type of thing and is limited to the people signed up at the start.

And I'm pretty sure I was eliminated this week, unless San Diego losing to Oakland was a Nyquil induced hallucination.

That was a rough week across the board. Glad we have a 2-strikes policy this time around :)

Still alive! Two strikes is awesome. I get to pick the Lions and still be in it. Woot! Though this the first tough week. My "good" picks are all out of the way and I have a series mediocre teams against mediorcre teams and crappy teams against crappy teams to pick from this week. I was hoping for a decent mediocre team against a crappy team match up. Aw well.

Time to scale back on the drinking? I wouldn't trust the Bears to win any game, so they won't be getting picked for a while.

Who knows. Maybe it is time to increase the drinking as I didn't go out at all last week.

Bucs should win this week, but there are other... less fortunate teams I would gladly pick em against... they gave me my only strike when palmer decided to give them the game at the end... stupid Cincinnati...

TB at Atlanta is a should win? Depends which Atlanta team shows up. I don't really see the Bucs offense scoring with them nor the Bucs defense keeping them down enough. I would expect Turner and Snelling to have big games against the Bucs 30th ranked run defense - and stacking the box won't help them against the Falcons.

Well I agree in theory Atlanta should win, but the bucs actually play better on the road than home this season... I expect some kind of day where the bucs just irk the falcons in all the right ways.

In my non-OO Survivor pool, winning records left:

Bucs
Bears
Jets
Fins
Texans
Seahawks
Giants
Eagles
Steelers

4-4 Raiders are also available.

It should be safe taking the Giants in their next NFC Least game, or just wait until they play Dallas. How in the heck does anyone pick the Bills vs Bears game? It's going to be a tough week, unless I actually use the Giants.

You can use steelers now... Honestly... start looking at each teams schedule and figure out a week thats best for that team... Jets will have a few decent easily winnable games left after the lions its cleveland then cinci 2 weeks afterward.

The Bills will eventually win a game... but I like my chances of it not happening a lot :)

Steelers should trounce a team or two this season... As far as Bills vs Bears... I probably would leave it alone, the Bills are due. Who do the texans play next week?

Best you can do is plan out as much as possible and hope some people falter or a some upsets happen :)
