I have to say, after last year I'm pleasantly surprised at the diversity of selections! Of course on Tuesday we'll know how smart that turns out to be in retrospect...
But at least there aren't people picking both sides of the same game. :)
Crap. I even checked it earlier this week so that I could make a preliminary/place holder type pick in case I forgot. I guess I forgot to do that too. Just call me the Resident Moron.

Oh fudge. I didn't even remember that the season starts tonight until about five minutes ago. I don't see why stpid Yahoo has to lock the picks a day in advance. Then again, I doubt I'd have made it past September so whatever.

SURVIVAL FOOTBALL WEEKLY DEADLINE REMINDER Hello gater_83,
If you have not yet made selections for this week's games, you must enter your picks before your group's selection deadline passes or you will be Eliminated.
If you would like more information on this week's games, check out the Yahoo! Sports coverage at http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl.
Note: If you would like to stop receiving this weekly notification, go to your Pick Set page, click on the Edit Pick Set Info link, and change your answer to the reminders question.
I hope that because I somehow managed to register twice that I can not only be eliminated in the first week (already accomplished) but win the league as well!

Thanks to those who forgot to pick, I can't finish last, even with taking the risk of Mike Martz on the road. I must really think the 49ers suck to pick Martz off the turf.
You went with Martz on the road? You're a braver soul than I am. Of course, my theory of "let's just pick against Bledsoe as much as possible" might not exactly rake in the dividends, either.
For all your CZW and Nickels Trivia information. I am now the Sex Division Trivia Champion, and on September 10 I face someone who actually works part time in the WWE! Will I be starstruck, or will I hold him down worse than the WWE holds down Val Venis? STAY TUNED!

"VIKINGS (-6) over Bucs How many people are going to be teasing this game...
Rams (-5.5) over NINERS ...with this one? And that's the problem. So allow me to do this:
NINERS (+5.5) over Rams For three reasons. First, you should never tease two of the Mikes together, not under any circumstances! Second, everyone and their brother picked the Rams in their Suicide Pool this week. And third, everyone thinks the Rams are reliable on the road for some reason, when the reality is this: Against the spread in road games over the past three years, they're 7-19. (See, that's why I get the big bucks -- for stats like that.)"

Football coaches (and their teams) sometimes have a tendency to lose perspective, given they live in their own insular, focused little world during the season.
