Survival Football League

I just created a survival league on Yahoo. You pick one team each week and if they win, you get to keep making picks. If they lose, you're done. You can use each team once all season.

Sure! because 3 fantasy leagues, a pro pick em, and an EZ league aren't enough. :P

Thanks.

How do the playoffs work if you can only pick a team once?

I have no idea. I hope there is an expert among us.

I'll look into it. I've never played it before with the playoffs as an option. If need be, I'll change the setting. You would think the playoff-bound teams would all get used up.

Alright, according to Yahoo, the team options resets when the playoffs start. So we get to pick for 17 weeks of the NFL season, then the 12 teams making the playoffs are all available to be picked in the playoffs. The playoffs follow a similar one-use-per-team selection rule, so save your Super Bowl prediction for the Super Bowl I guess.

Had the Dolphins won, I'd have been ecstatic even though it would have wrecked my fantasy football leagues. Dan Marino was my sports hero as a kid. It's been a long time since I've been able to get excited about the Dolphins. I doubt this will be the year. :sigh:

Just me and the marmot now. I wish I hadn't set eliminations as one and done. Maybe once we're all out, we can restart it. I guess we'll find out.

Is it just me, or do you and I tend to go 1-2 in all of these non-traditional fantasy leagues.

So G-Man and I both picked Arizona, and they lost.

I guess that's it huh. Good season folks.

Aw hell, if the season's over already, who wants to start a new one here on the Syndicate this week? Scrap the previous one, and we'll do a 13 week variation.

All in favor say aye.

While I'm glad to get the pick 'em points for the Oakland game, I was partially rooting against them when I saw Buffalo was leading early. I'm running out of good match-ups to pick from.
