TFP Loser Pool Week #2
 
Week #2 of the TFP Loser Pool (or you still can’t trust Green Bay as a pick)

The first week of the Loser Pool has passed and we have gotten rid of some dead wood. 14 players couldn’t pick a loser, they are out. Three of these players were also out in the first week of the suicide pool. Out of courtesy, they shall rename nameless (I can be swayed with money and/or alcohol.) Week are in week 7 of the regular season and it is time for the your next loser.

First a review of the rules:

1. Each week you must pick one team to lose that week. (Point spreads are irrelevant!) If they lose you continue on in the pool the next week. They win, you are out.

2. You may only pick a team one time during the pool to lose a game. Once you have picked a team, that team can not be used for the remainder of the season. (This is where the strategy comes into play - choose wisely when to take your "sure thing" team.) If you “accidently” pick a team you have used previously, you will lose and then be prepared to be mocked and thoroughly embarrassed (hereinafter referred to as the “inharmony rule”).

Since this is a single elimination, be sure to have your pick in by midnight EST the night before the first game. If the mod (thanks again Spectre) locks the thread before you pick, you have not picked, and have lost.

If you did not get in on the first week of this pool, you are not eligible to play for the rest of the season. This pool is very similar to the Suicide Pool with one exception: instead of picking a guaranteed winner, you have to pick a guaranteed loser. Sounds simple, but remember you can only pick a team to lose once during the pool (which could stretch into the playoffs). “Choose, but choose wisely.”

Remaining players:
Ace_O_Spades, archer2371, Baldrick, Beatlefan58, bobw, bond007, BonesCPA, brian1975, bundy, cameroncrazy822, CandleInTheDark, Chauncey, choskins, crewsor, DDDDave, Dengar, Eweser, Fantasma, Giant Hamburger, grumpyolddude, guccilvr, heccubsiv, inharmony, ironchef82, Jesus Malverde, jobu, maximusveritas, Mondak, omega2k4, present_future, quicksteal, radioguy, Rdr4ever, Scipio, Seandq, Shizukana, Sion, sirsnekcip, steelerz, stevo22, yoyoyobro


Good luck to all remaining.

Jacksonville

Glory's Sun 10-19-2004 05:31 AM

Jacksonville also

Baldrick 10-19-2004 06:35 AM

Have to go with the JETS. Sounds like they may be missing a few key starters against the best team in the league.

bond007 10-19-2004 06:49 AM

Dallas Cowboys.

CandleInTheDark 10-19-2004 07:01 AM

Jacksonville

Ace_O_Spades 10-19-2004 07:28 AM

Jacksonville is the obvious loser pick this week

I hope :(

present_future 10-19-2004 07:40 AM

NY Jets for me.

Rdr4evr 10-19-2004 08:24 AM

Got to go with the Bills.

bundy 10-19-2004 08:36 AM

its time for the JETS

Nimbletoe 10-19-2004 08:54 AM

Pshaw, I took a calculated risk going with New England last week. When else are you going to be able to pick them!?

Shizukana 10-19-2004 09:41 AM

Tennessee

And... sure guys, keep picking JAX... the more people that get knocked out this week, the better chance I have of winning. ;D

yoyoyobro 10-19-2004 10:49 AM

Chicago is the pick

crewsor 10-19-2004 12:12 PM

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say Buffalo. Even without Jamal Lewis and a couple other key starters I think the Ravens get this win. :thumbsup:

BonesCPA 10-19-2004 01:09 PM

Cleveland is the pick.

quicksteal 10-19-2004 01:21 PM

What can Brown do for you? Keep me in the loser pool, I hope. Cleveland is my pick.

steelerz 10-19-2004 01:42 PM

Add another one for the Jets

Sion 10-19-2004 02:15 PM

Cleveland, of course

Sion 10-19-2004 02:16 PM

one question about the rules. suppose I survive until the playoffs, but all the teams that make the playoffs are ones I've already picked? Am I fucked and out of the running?

Wouldn't it just end during the playoffs, should any of us be lucky enough to get there?

Your words, not mine, but yes. As a great man once said "ties are liking kissing your sister." We go until we have a winner and if all of the remaining teams have been used up by your earlier picks, then you are SOL. So start thinking about who is going to LOSE the Super Bowl....

ironchef82 10-20-2004 12:06 PM
