**CLOSED** Losers League Contest - Session Two

[NDN]

The second session of the Losers League Contest is almost upon us!

The rules remain unchanged, but the selection process becomes a bit more simple!

Just to refresh everyone's memory, this is how the contest works:


Selections are due by Wednesday at 11:59pm ET - NO EXCEPTIONS!

Please make a note of the special Wednesday deadline to accommodate for Thursday games!

The second session starts with week 11 games of Thursday, November 17th, Sunday, November 19th, and Monday, November 20th.

To be eligible to participate in the second session of this year's Losers League, your entry must be received by Wednesday, November 16th at 11:59pm ET!

The concept is simple; select an NFL team to lose each week (point spreads are not a factor).

You can select a team only once during each session until the playoffs. During the playoffs, the 'any team any time' rule applies, meaning you can pick any team you'd like regardless of whether or not you used them during the regular season.

If your selection wins ... YOU LOSE !!!!!

If your selection ties ... YOU LOSE !!!!!

If you repeat your selection ... YOU LOSE !!!!

If your selection is not in by 11:59pm ET on Wednesday... YOU LOSE !!!!

If you lose once, you fall into the consolation bracket.

If you lose twice, you are a true loser!

After it is all said and done there is one winner of the Championship Bracket ($50) and one winner of the Consolation Bracket ($25).


With all of that said, if you would like to participate in this year's Losers League contest, please click here to send me a private message with your selections!

Throughout the season, please continue to send me a private message each week with your selections and remember to get them to be before the deadline! Because we are taking a relaxed approach with this contest, there won't be too many reminders, so it's up to you to get your selections in on time each week! If you could kindly use a subject line in the format of "Week Eleven Selection" each week I would greatly appreciate it!

If you are still in the first session, please make sure to clearly state which session each of your selections is for!

This will be the official Losers League thread for the second session, so please check here for a list of everyone's selections each week (posted after the deadline) and to do some bragging!

Good luck and have fun!

Yes, selections are still due by the normal deadline (Wednesday by 11:59 PM ET).

If it goes to a SB finish, the contests will split the prizes they are eligible for (the players remaining in the Championship Bracket would split $50 and the players in the Consolation Bracket would split $25).

[eejit101]

hmm.

My pick is in.

Anyone else feeling that the saints cant lose?

[woohoosue]

ok so if it gets down to the SB and one or more of us guess wrong then we would drop down into the split in the consolation bracket(being on an equal level with one miss hit in total 2nd session)?

[tjntaco]

I'm with you on this one, Eejit. If by come on, you mean die.

And Woohoo, nothing personal but you stay the heck out of my bracket.

[eejit101]

I figured everyone else will be picking detroit? So come on lions!

[CATLICKER]

Its finally over this week. 2012 is not the year of the Tebow! Pittsburgh romps!

[NDN]

Selections have been updated!

[eejit101]

So... lets have some thoughts on the picks.

4 Games -

Pit @ Den
Det @ New
Atl @ Nyg
Cin @ Hou

Of those 4 games... how the hell did you all go for detroit? The team with the best chance of winning their game? The saints are hot, but Detroit are throwing TDs for fun. If they can stop the Saints a couple of times they are in with a big chance.

Id rather have picked the Bengals or the Giants over them. Pit has to have the best chance of winning this week surely? Broncos are 8-8. Pit are 13-3. Broncos score about 4pts a game. Pit only give about 4 yards a game. Pit scores about 24 pts a game. Denver gives 18 pts a game.

WTF!?!?!?!?!

Then again, now ive said this Pit will lose by 100 points and the Saints will break every record going. Ahh well

[Ringo]

The Steelers playing the Broncos is like having a bye week.

If the Steelers score 13 points game over

If the allow 14 points or more they will have to return home and land in Cleveland

[eejit101]

Word on that big bird.

I dont know why Detroit was picked. I do love NDNs pick though.

Boom.

Boom.

Big bird? Wtf. Love it.

I went with NYG because I technically can't win anyways and thought I would go with someone who I didn't think anyone else would pick. Should it prove to be a brilliant move, I'll put the $25 up for a freeroll or a new sports contest.

[eejit101]

"Should it prove to be a brilliant move".

Translation - eejit101 said this is the best pick, and I went with him. However he is a wimp and went with Denver.... as he is scared of picking his home boys.
