Gary M Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 Bills over Jets. 780866[/snapback] My number one rule for elimination pools, Stay away from divisional games. I am so tempted to take the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so tempted to take the Bills. 780869[/snapback] That sounds similar to the rule of saving up your 'good' teams so you don't burn through them and can use them at the end of the year. Not smart. Elimination pools have one purpose- survive. Pick the best game you can every week. Personal rules about division games sounds strange. You'd risk taking a road team who you didn't feel great about rather than taking a sure thing like Indy at home over Tennessee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again money is involved. 781217[/snapback] Putting your money in the hands of Daunte Culpepper is a daunt(e)ing task. This is one brutal week for suicide. I think I like Indy if most of their guys are playing, but my eyes are on the injury list. I wouldn't touch Washington at any rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the sperm that the national media pumps out of Miami every preseason, it is impossible to get a handle on how good or bad they are until the halfway point.
