2018 NFL Survivor League.
 
I will set up a public one of these as soon as they allow it to happen. We seemed to have a lot of problems with people getting into the private Survivor League.

Please keep Survivor player's name you pick family friendly as well as considerate of other players.

Good luck this week. We have 73 people playing as of 9:50 AM EST. 9/06/2018.

I must say some people have really sick senses of humor judging from the handles they chose for this specific pool but that is life and the First Amendment.

Hmm...unless I went through the list too quickly and missed them, I didn't really see any handles that were that sick. :)

I am not going to dignify some others of them with pointing them out but one is of Rodney Halbower, the main suspect in the murder of 5 young women in the San Mateo area as well as a nursing student near the University of Nevada, Reno on 2-24 in 1976. This was the 19 year old daughter of my then Earl Wooster High School teacher Mrs. Barbara Mitchell. Halbower killed her on my birthday of 2-24. They convicted Cathy Woods falsely around 1979 or 1980 for Michelle's murder because she was a paranoid schizophrenic and made a false confession to the murder so she could get a better room in a mental hospital in Louisiana. Halbower was found out as a murderer of Michelle Mitchell after a DNA test on a cigarette butt found at the crime scene. This was in 2014. Halbower is one sick S.O.B. The San Mateo murders are also called the Gypsy Hill slayings.

Post traumatic stress comes in different forms but this kind of use of handles in a Football League is just extremely mean spirited and nasty.

They are some rather cruel people out there and some show up on Talk of the Villages, unfortunately.

I do see this as a form of cheating. Using a name to upset others as much as possible is extremely low even for some of the people on Talk of the Villages.

Now with 82 players and we already have some winners this week with their Philadelphia picks.

Aaron Rogers pulled it out with 21 points in the last quarter. Exciting game.

I picked Green Bay and they made me watch it until the end. And they were an 8 point favorite when I picked them. Oh well, got by week 1. On to week 2.

Had a lot of emotion while watching this. I used to root for Da Bears when I lived in Chicagoland. Spent three months or so taking care of a uncle who lost a leg, arm and part of his skull to a German panzer tree burst which also wiped out 6 men from his 8 man squad at the landing in Anzio. Had to take care of him before he went into the nursing home up the street in late 1994.

And we lived in a suburb of Milwaukee the first ten years of my life up through late 1969.

I did think I was going to be out the first week of the Survivor game when I saw that score of 0 to 20 in favor of Da Bears.

Packers face Vikings next week and I lived in Minneapolis for 5.5 while getting a law degree and working at the U of MN Law Library.

Also another tough one for whom to back as far as emotions are concerned.

Jets are doing well tonight. My 2nd or 3rd cousin-- my father's father's brother's grand kid-- used to be the General Manager of the NY Jets. John Idzik, Jr.

He is with the Jags now.

Taltarzac725 09-11-2018 07:38 AM

Lost about 40 of our survivors in the first week. Would have been more if not for the great work of Aaron Rodgers to pull 21 points out of his team mates the last quarter against Da Bears. Great end to the game, 23-24.

Moderator. Harassment by People in the Survivor League.
 
The continued cyber bullying by a quite nasty group of people on the message board of the TOTV NFL Survivor League is very disturbing. First the use of names creating to deliberately upset me and then the continued stalking and harassment online. Very sad. This harassment also looks organized via e-mails or however this group communicates with each other.

I am just letting the Moderator know about this problem. And I believe some of these people are TOTV posters or were before they were kicked off.

Taltarzac725 09-18-2018 07:46 AM

Down to 36 from 99 at the very start of the TOTV Survivor League a few weeks ago. Some tough breaks with upsets this past week. How about the Bucs and the Jags! Quite the unexpected outcomes.

Good luck this week, survivors!

NFL Survivor - NFL.com

Taltarzac725 09-19-2018 10:09 AM

For some reason it is only 98 who signed up. Not sure what happened there. 36 survivors as of Week 2 out of 98 who started.

I have often been kicked out by the second week. Usually because I backed New Orleans or Pittsburgh and they did not come through for me and others who chose them to win.

This cyber bullying continues. And it looks like it definitely breaks the FL Statutes against cyber bullying.

Taltarzac725 09-21-2018 07:46 AM

The Jets were good last night until they weren't.

Taltarzac725 09-21-2018 09:07 PM

Down to 97 from 99 Survivors listed. With 36 still eligible to play as of 9/21/2018 Friday 10:06 PM.

Good luck this week.
