Welcome back from the holiday break boys…I hope everybody had a safe and happy New Year’s celebration. I thank God every day for soccer because it gives me something to take my mind off of how infuriating LSU football can be. And then we had a break for the FA competition so hopefully everyone is rested and ready to keep going. Also, the Northwest Derby is this week so I’d be remissed if I didn’t point out that Manchester United Football Club smells like rotten eggs…that is all.

The rules are as follows:
- Select a team from the matches listed for that week.
- Home wins and away draws provide immunity to the next round. Home losses, away losses and home draws result in elimination.
- Each team may only be used once during the competition with the exception of the mulligan round. Teams used in the mulligan round are still available to be used later in the contest.
-Failure to pick a winner by the deadline each week will result in either the loss of a mulligan or elimination from the contest.

Still alive:

The "whoever plays Villa" strategy.

Ballsy.

I almost chose Villa this week. At home, they have to beat *somebody* eventually. This could be the week.

'E's not talking about you, 'e's talking about 'arry.

I agree with him, too. QPR has been a shite show, BUT a London derby, at home, with QPR coming off a good showing against Chelsea, and managed by 'arry? And Tottenham knocked me out of three straight survivors (I think...)?

frick that match.

This is my first time doing the contest so I'm unsure of the rules, since my name is not in bold and I have not used a mulligan, if I choose incorrectly this round am I still alive?
