I went to the 11th week in 2008 and the 15th week in 2009, both times I lost with Denver at home playing Oakland and being double digit favorites (or pretty darn close to double digits) .
In 2007 I think, in a 1500 person pool, i had 10 entries and went the distance with one of them. 8 other entries in the pool went the distance as well and we chopped 15000.
Tough first week this year. I'm going with either Indy or Pit.
Got knocked out last yeAr week 2 with NE at home -14.5 faves over arizona. That stung.

I was in one last year where you could lose 3 times before you were out. I tied for 1st in the playoffs. The host was a bimbo, complete idiot. She kept changing the rules throughout the pool. The week there was a tie she gave people a win. I told her "the object is to pick a winner each week. A tie is not a win!"
So, morale of the story is to get into a pool where the host knows what the fuck he's doing!

Won the Rx/Justbet sponsored one here last year. Hope they, or some sponsor, do it again. Think it went about 10 weeks, but was down to Just 2 of us, TheFalls and me, after about 6 weeks or so. Won another one that was a double elimination. That one lasted until week 13, had about 160 people.
