2014 Yahoo Pickem and Survival groups

[HPF Bob]

Folks:

I've decided I'm too busy to do a suicide contest this year and since there's already one forming at Yahoo, go ahead and participate in that one. Sorry for the late notice but I've been, well, y'know, busy.

I was tempted to apply the Week 1 jinx to the R-wordskins but decided to take Detroit in what looks like a classic bait job. The Lions are a September team while the Giants always start slow. It's in Detroit and Eli Manning has not had good protection facing on of the fiercest pass rushes in the league. I'm not buying the Lions as a playoff team but I am buying them as Week 1 Pretenders.
