Every year, there is a bit of craziness at the beginning of the season as the hierarchy of teams settles out, new teams emerge and the old order is swept away. But this year is especially volatile due mainly to the inconsistent, if not incompetent, officiating. And there's also the situation in New Orleans.
I have two pools I run. In Survivor, 18 of 20 are out after just three weeks. In the Pick 'em pool, the average number of correct picks has never been over 10. This past week was particularly bloody with the average being just under 7 correct picks and the winner (and 2 others that lost in the tie-breaker) had only 9.
With interest in Survivor pretty much gone, I'm going to start another, but since this is for all of us losers, it will be Loser Survivor: Who Will be the Biggest Loser - instead of picking winners, participants pick a loser each week, maybe against the spread.
How are your pools going?
