For only the second time this NFL season, Survivor pool players face the ultimate challenge:
Who do we pick now that we can’t just pick whoever is playing the Browns?
If you never played, Survivor pools require each bettor to pick a team to win straight up — no spread — just Herm Edwards style win the game. Catch is, you can only pick a team once. So no hopping on the Patriots each Sunday. It gets really rough after Thanksgiving when you’re left with options like Tennessee or Los Angeles on the road.
When I was gambling I played in a $25 per entry Survivor pool that paid one lucky SOB about $25,000.
