Default YOM's FB Challenge, Week 1
It's that time of year again. I know it's early (a couple weeks to go still until the first official Kickoff), but this gives you ample time to consider your first week's picks, and indoctrinate yourself as to how this here works.

I know there's plenty of yahoo fantasy leagues, pickem's, and Moses' Upset Challenge. This is a contest that I've done every season (except last season due to me fighting the bad guys), and I enjoy doing it and intend to keep it going. And this sh*t is for sullies. Worthless sullies indeed. I have nothing better to do with my sullies, so I offer to give them all to you. I keep a running tally of each week's winners and totals, and there will be a season-ending grand prize winner, which will be determined by a cumulative of your points across the season.

Winner of each week's contest gets $2,500* sullies. From my own bank account. And another $2,500 can be earned with a perfect entry. The cumulative season winner earns a handsome $15,000 sullies. I will be placing an entry each week in order to try and keep my own sullies.


The format is simple. I post the schedule each week, and you copy/paste it in your reply and BOLD the team you pick to win that matchup. There will be various tie breakers in case of a tie. If you are braindead, just follow my example.

Each week, the amount of picks you get correct will get recorded in a spreadsheet, and there will be an overall season winner whom will receive the grand prize. Therefore, if you don't participate every week, you severely hurt your chances of being the season winner. Every week I will publicly list the overall standings, as well as the results of that week. In previous seasons there were over 40 participants, and I think it went very well. I'm hoping to duplicate that this year, and have even more participation.

*Deadline to post your selections is 5 minutes prior to the first game of the week. This weeks deadline is Thursday at 8:00pm EST.


Without further ado...here's the Week 1 matchups:

Thursday, September 9th
Minnesota @ New Orleans

Sunday, September 12th
Miami @ Buffalo
Detroit @ Chicago
Oakland @ Tennessee
Cincinnati @ New England
Carolina @ NY Giants
