I had grand plans to create a blogger survivor pool for the NFL season this year. What I didn't count on was the fact that every schmuck blogger in the country had a similar idea. I think every sports blog in my RSS reader had either a fantasy league, a picks challenge, or a survivor pool. We went forward with the idea anyway, and it ended up being a clear failure.
First, only 5 of the entrants made a pick for week 1. Three of those were ECB contributors.
Second, I was the only one to get knocked out in the first week.
Here are the results:
| J-Red | SEA |
| Russell | PIT |
| Brien | PHI |
| NOIS | DET |
| 100% Injury Rate | PIT |
Stay tuned next week to see how the final four make out.
Special thanks to Nation of Islam Sportsblog, 100% Injury Rate, and Ladies... (who would have made a pick, but TSW forgot their password) for humoring us by playing along. You guys (and girls) are the best.

I can't believe I forgot to make my pick. Sorry.
The sad thing is, chances are I would have picked the 49ers, about the only game I did pick correctly this weekend.
You were on fire this week Brien. Let me know if you need help making the mortgage payment.
We're ready to dominate this league. I can't belive Agent Steinz forgot to do his damn pick. I was looking forward to berating him weekly with trash talk.
