It's that time of year again when hope springs anew and the football-loving public collectively says, “This year I'll go all the way.” I'm of course referring to survivor pools, a type of contest that sounds easy – until you're doing it.
The concept is simple: Pick one team that wins an NFL game every week. No spreads or totals, just winners. Once you use that team, they're done – creating an element of strategy and long-term planning that makes these contests deceptively difficult.
Fortunately, this year we're partnering with our friends at Pool Genius to make things easier. They've built slate-leading tools to help conquer a variety of pool contests, including survivor.
