7th Annual ES Survival Football League! Week 10 Update - and the winner is...

[Bliz]

If you played last year, you should have gotten an invite.  If not, you can join here:

For anyone who hasn't played before, it's simple. You pick 1 winner straight up each week. Pick correctly and you move on. Pick incorrectly and you're eliminated. Once you pick a team to win, you can't pick them again the rest of the season. Last one standing wins.

 

We've had a lot of participants the last six years. And every year a big number go out when they forget to make a pick. Don't be that guy. Sign up for reminders.

 

Good luck everyone!  Pick wisely, and you can join our Hall of Champions:

 

S1 - @HBnotBlades

S2 - @dfitzo53

S3 - @Mr. Sinister and @burgundyrush co-champs

S4 - @abdcskins

S4.1 - @btfoom

S5 - @Corcaigh @btfoom @mcsluggo @China 4-way tie. 

S6 - I Isn't Dumb.  Who never posted in the thread to claim their glory and tell us who they were.

S7 - @dfitzo53

 

[Mr. Sinister]

Pretty sure I forgit to pick the last 2 seasons, therefore I have not truly lost to anyone but myself the last three years.

 

There shall be a reckoning.

[dfitzo53]

Sweet, I'll be joining!

[Popeman38]

Hey!  Get your own thread, buddy

 

 

[Bliz]

2 weeks left to join!

 

We're up to 20 players.  3 daredevils with no placeholder pick, planning to remember to make their picks later

 

[Corcaigh]

S5 was not a tie. I won the tie breaker. Don't let McSluggo intimidate you into claiming otherwise. The dude wears spandex and rides a bicycle.

A wise man named Putnam once said do not fire until you see the whites of their eyes (especially if he saw this Week 1 slate of games... holy **** what a toss up). 

 

Got several reminders in my phone this time, so I avoid being depressingly  speared through the heart by the silvers of their bayonets...

I am in for the short time i usually survive in these things.

 

I'd like to invite everyone to play the Bang Radio Hour's annual pigskin pick-ems game. This year we have a pretty awesome prize by an artist who does outstanding etched glass.. he made me a beer mug with a Redskins logo on it, and it is SWEET.. and huge.. thing holds 2 full beers. If you win, you will get with him and decide what you want.

Last year @Bliz came close to winning,, or did you actually win?

Nah, didn't win.  I think I came in 3rd maybe. Damn yisman

 

Prouder accomplishment was making you and Tom laugh on podcast at some team names over the years.  Iirc Circle Joique and Lawrence of a Labia both got you pretty good

lol,, YES they did!

Can't wait to see your name this year.

I am "Hella Enchilada" from my favorite bit last year.. Marshawn Lynch talking to that Mexican reporter. Holy crap that was funny. (But i can't seem to figure out how to swap the position of my team name and username.)

 

Yeah, yisman is some sort of insider, i think. That dude has been listening to us from show 1, and he has won more than a few times.  He doesn't email very often, but when he does, he definitely says things that lead me to believe he has some connection.

[PleaseBlitz]

I joined. 

[Bliz]

Bump.

 

Just a couple days left to sign up and make your picks. So do it already!

 

 

[MikeSellers45]

I'm in, let's try this again

[dfitzo53]

Remembered to make my pick, at least for week 1!

[Destino]

I joined.  I'm in for at least one week. 

[Popeman38]

Well, looks like half the league is going out with New Orleans, including me. WTF

[PleaseBlitz]

I picked Baltimore or, more accurately, against Buffalo.

That game scared me to death. We'll see what happens with my Green Bay pick later on.

Picking against Buffalo might be a good strategy.

 

I have GB later too. But I survived longer than some. ?

 

SPeaking of NO, I had Brees, Kamara and Evans (TB) in my fantasy league. Good for 86+ points.

I thought about it, but knew better. NO/Tampa has always been a wacky one.

[Mr. Sinister]

Glad to see my Minny strategy paid off. Wasn't all that confident, as Cousins is a notoriously slow starter, but I figured hot shot dude, been hearing all spring and summer how he's the ****.

 

 Hadn't done a whole lot yet, and was going up against a great D on the road. Saw it as a good recipe for a cheap Wk1 (historically the hardest week of them all) steal on my part.

[just654]

Yep, I am done, damn Saints
