I was smart enough to pick a Monday game, thereby minimizing the likelihood of being the first one eliminated. You had some company in our group with the Chicago pick, though, TKO.

Joe is gone. As are Monkey, Micro, TK and phbuc72 (is that you, TKO? don't even see you in there).

Seven advance with the Eagles. Three advance with the Steelers. Treff, Sam and I have Mystery Picks.

I don't think this is your typical "eliminator" game because it let me pick a team for week 2. I think you get less points when you don't win? Or get more points the longer you last? According to ESPN's main page the punishment is that "you're out of the running for the grand prize once you lose a game"

Ah... mebbe... I didn't look very closely.

And the mystery pick is in: Lions for the rest of us.

So long as it lets me, I'm gonna keep picking even if I keep getting them wrong. (I'm 1-1.)

Well, so much for being at the top; it was fun while it lasted. ;)

I guess other than only being able to take each team once, this isn't exactly a traditional "eliminator". Me and my 2 points are ready.

Lost another one. Thought for sure the Falcons would beat up on Chef's Vikings? I must have the kiss of death. SP beware - I'm taking the Steelers for week 5.

Reminder bump.

Wil, eddied & tabscojet are undefeated. (Which is strange since their score is 99.7%. Gotta love the wacky math at ESPN.)
