this has grown throughout the years to the point where we had right around 20 entrants last year.  simple deal, you pick until you lose, last man standing wins.  $50 entry fee which must be paid by kickoff of week 1, winner take all.  

here is the link to the group (password is: ousucks): http://fantasy.espn.com/nfl-eliminator-challenge/2018/en/group?groupID=30802

Is the deadline to make a pick before the last game played?

I have been in some pools where you had to make the pick before the first game.

no you have until kickoff of whatever game you want to pick.  so if you wanted to do the 2nd monday night game, you'd have until kickoff of that game (and the contest will be open to all paid entrants ) to make your pick.

well that was fun while it lasted for the 5 of us who picked the saints.  

2nd year in a row i'm out on week one.  

#23

My history of eliminator pools has two rules: never pick the Saints, and never pick Kansas City.  They have fucked me too many times.

#25

Proud that I survived until the Monday games! Was really tempted to switch from DET to LAR at the last minute but I was counting on the Jets to out-pathetic the Lions, especially on the road. Good luck to the remainers

Only 7 left I like it!  BigOrange1 still working on getting fing Venmo to work, didn’t feel like sitting on the phone with them Friday for hours again I’ll try again on Monday.  Shit is pissing me off.

ok so here is the deal: if the bears win, obviously the two guys who picked them move on to a head to head battle.  if they lose, all 7 of you who lost today will move on to next week. 

we had to do this once in the past when everyone lost in week 2.

@jackstraw pulled out a close one...

haha, that was a dang coaching mistake, i couldn't believe it.  at least we picked different teams this past week after picking the same for the previous 4...that made it more exciting 

 

#32

Well shit, I didn’t think you had the chiefs left..  So we pick the same again... It’s going to get tough starting next week
