Rules for Football Survivor Pool

1) Each week, players will pick one winner from that week's games. The winner is chosen without regards to any point spreads. If that team wins, then you advance to the next week. Ties will count as a loss.

2) At no time can a player pick a team that they have picked in any previous weeks.

3) Each player is allowed to miss one week and stay in the pool. After the second miss, the player is out.

4) The deadline each week for picks is 1:00 PM, Sunday. In the case of Thursday or Saturday games, if a player would like to select one of those teams, the selection must be made prior to kickoff of that game.

5) The winner is the player that makes it the furtherest into the season before missing 2 games. In the event of a tie between 2 or more players, the following tie-breaker rules will be used.

  • 1) Fewest misses
  • 2) Furthest into the season before the first miss

    If there is still a tie, then the prize pool will be split amongst the remaining teams.

    6) If a player fails to submit an entry, or picks a team that they have previously chosen, I will assign the first eligible team alphabetically by city as their pick.

    7) Entry fee is a one time fee of $5.

    Picks may be made by clicking on your name and entering your password. Players may pick ahead for as many weeks as they like and may change any pick until the deadline for that particular week. Picks may also be sent to mellenburg@fnnffl.com or phoned in at 301-816-9642.

    If a player submits an ineligible pick, I'll make every attempt to notify the player so they may make another pick. If I do not get an eligible pick by 1:00 pm Sunday of that week, I'll then assign the first eligible team alphabetically by 3 letter team abbreviation.

    Entry fees may be given to me in person or mailed to
