Title: Playoff Suicide League
Post by: MURP on January 02, 2006, 12:15:27 AM
Playoff Suicide League-  You pick a team who you think will win.  If they do, you move on to the next week.  If they lose you are done.  You cant pick the same team twice. There is more strategy involved in the playoffs than during the regular season suicide league.   You must send me an IM via the board with your pick by 11:59pm the night before the games of that weekend.   That means this Friday by 11:59 is this weeks cut off.   I will then post all of the selections on this thread.

No, you pick one team a week, from either conference.  Only, you can't pick the same team twice.

So, what you really want to do is pick a team that will win this week, but lose next week.

I'm hedging my bets, man.

1.  If the Skins lose, I will giggle with glee despite being out of this contest.
2.  If the Skins win, I not only move on in the contest, but I have confidence that I would have no desire to pick them to win again...
3.  ...which is good because I couldn't pick them again anyway.


Those who picked NE might regret it.  They're basically betting on the champs to lose eventually.

FanSince61 and 4th&26 are the only two alive for the SB.   Since they both must pick Pitt the tiebreaker will be total points scored in the SB.   Both of you send me your pick for total points scored in the superbowl.

Because they both have already picked both Seattle and Pittsburgh, while 61 and 4&26 have not picked Pittsburgh.

That said, if Seattle wins the Super Bowl, it would theoretically be a 4-way tie for the league win.
