The first contest resulted in no winners as every entry had at least one team lose. So we are declaring a mulligan and starting over!

 

We are going to be doing our Staying Alive contest again this year. As before, the concept is pretty simple and succeeding should be pretty easy at first, but strategy early on will greatly impact how you do as the contest proceeds. The objective of the contest is to make like the Bee Gees and "Stay Alive".

 

Here is how it works:

• Each week you will pick one team from each of the six classifications that you believe will win that week.
  
• The only catch is the team you pick to win has to be playing a 2006 playoff team from ANY classification. You cannot use a team playing an out of state opponent.
  
• You may only pick an individual team to win one time. Meaning if for instance you pick St. X to win in Week #1, you can never use St. X again.
  
• Everyone who picks six winning teams will advance to play again the next week.
  
• If you are eliminated or do not compete in any week, you will not be eligible to continue.
  
• A quality prize goes to the winner. Check here for a reference.

Your entry each week should be in the following format:

 

1A: Team

2A: Team

3A: Team

4A: Team

5A: Team

6A: Team

 

Do not post anything that is not an entry. If you do so, the post(s) will be deleted. If you are not eligible to participate (eliminated in a prior week), DO NOT POST IN THIS THREAD.

 

The deadline for all entries is 5 pm (EDT) Friday.

BTW, any teams that were used the first week can be used again as this is basically a restart of the contest. However, should you advance past this week and any further week until the contest is ended, the regular rules will apply and you will not be able to reuse any teams.
