*J_K_M_A_N WINS* NFL Last Man Standing Pick 'Em 2008
« on: September 02, 2008, 08:56:16 am »
Time for the 4th Annual BYOAC NFL Last Man Standing Pick 'Em! 

New this year:  a prize!  I wanted to give something out that is fun but not big enough to make the game triple in size.  This year the winner will receive one (1) sealed copy of Outlaw Volleyball Red Hot and one (1) sealed copy of Outlaw Golf 9 More Holes of X-Mas.  These are fully playable Xbox "demos" that were sold only at Blockbuster for a short time a few years ago.

<placeholder for a pic>

Rules are simple.  Choose one game each week.  Pick the winner.  If you are wrong you are eliminated from the game.  Last man standing wins.  I will keep track of everyone's picks each week and display them by editing this post. 

When making a pick, highlight it in the post, so that they're easier to pick out.  I don't want to miss anyone's pick.

A pick must be made every week.  Failure to make a pick results in elimination.   Picks should be posted in this thread so that people have the ability to double check my work.

You cannot pick a game with the same team two weeks in a row.  If you pick the Rams over the Titans in week 2, you cannot use either the Rams game or the Titans game in week 3.

Entrant pool closes an hour preceding the game you want to pick.  That means that if you want to pick Thursday's game this week you must do so at least an hour before the game starts.  Forum timestamps will be binding.

Poked through last year's thread and found this... holy crap that strategy could have actually won the game last year if you used the Patriots (if it were allowed).  Who would have ever thought that possible?

That's how this game works, tommy.  Eventually, most people are out, and the ones that are left begin to make different choices.  We have a full 17 weeks to play and the playoffs if need be but rarely does one of these games go much beyond the halfway point.  Even if everyone picks the Colts every week, the Colts aren't going 18-0.

BTW, this week and the next week are the hardest to pick.  Some team will undoubtedly come out hot the first week and knock off somebody's safe pick.  Then the next week somebody will pick that hot team which will lay an egg in week 2. 

Too bad Tommy isn't here to pick the Giants in week 1.  Those were fun losses in week 1 & 2.  ;D

People have until an hour before the second monday night game, technically, though really you have until an hour before the game you are picking begins.

Good Lord - my alliegience to my home team paid off.

That was the sole reason for picking the Falcons - as I said last year, I'm a loyal (if not often stupid) sports fan....but god, today was fun.

I bought in to Mike Smith's sound bites this week, as well as Matt Ryan's, and you know what? They, along with Michael Turner and the rest of the boys, did not let me down.

Atlanta 34, Detroit 21.  I know they won't win every game, but if this is any indication (today), we will soon be saying "Who was that sucky quarterback(edit) and team we had a few years ago?"

It's sad when I last longer during sex than I do during this pick em.   :laugh2:

Good luck everyone else!  Thanks Chad!

Poor Charger fans, I saw the end of that game. You could have heard a pin fall on carpet when he caught that TD.
