Was thinking about this yesterday. Thankfully I didnt

But was going back to the thread about the strategy, thats why I think you take a powerful team week 1, just to get the ball rolling then go from there with the weaker to medicore teams.

Just my opinion

Happened to me last year. But it's not that shocking, strange things can and do happen all the time, so why not also on week one of the NFL season?

Lost in week 2 last year in a double elimination one. Now, that still hurts.

in the local survivior pool I play in, you can buy back in if you lose during the first 3 weeks of the season (although if you buy back in you cannot later take the team that beat your team). It helps to make the pot a substantial one later in the year. With that in mind, many times in the past I have lost in week 4.

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

I guess its better to lose early on than be almost in the money near the end of the season and lose
