Week #8 of the TFP Suicide Pool (Only the medalists remain)

Week seven is over and the field was cut in half. Three of the remaining six picked losing teams, so there are only three left. We started with 57 in week one, dropped to 40 for week two, seventeen going into week 3, lost three players week three, lost 5 players in week 4, and three more let loose the mortal coil in week 5, week six had all surviving and in week 7 we lost three more. If your name is on the following list, you may continue on. If your name is not on this list, you are more than welcome to post a pick, if you are willing to receive harsh and embarrassing comments made about you since this is for the remaining participants only. (Congratulatory or self-deprecating messages are welcome.)

First a repeat of the rules:

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

2. You may only pick a team one time during the pool to win a game. Once you have picked a team, that 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.

Now on to the remaining participants. Again, if you name isn’t on this list, your pick will not count.

Dengar, Jesus Malverde, magnum_xxxl


Best of luck to the three remaining.
