Welcome to my 2008 Suicide Baseball contest. This is another great chance for one of you lucky CAGs to win some fabulous prizes. Here's how it works:

Much like Admiral Ackbar's popular Suicide Football contest, all you have to do is pick one MLB team each week. In order to advance, your team must win 4 games in the given week (Weeks wil run Monday - Sunday.) If your team wins 4 games, you advance on and get to pick for the next week's games. If your team does not win 4 games, you're out.

It is your responsibility to check the MLB schedules. If you pick a team, and they only play 5 games that week...that's too bad, they still have to win 4 games.

Also, if your team happens to have some rain outs in a given week, they still have to win 4 games, that's just a part of the deal.

You may only pick each team one time, ie, if you pick the redsox in week #1, you cannot pick them again for the remainder of the season.

Players will also have one bye week. You can elect to use your bye week at any time. Using your bye week will automatically advance you to the next week. Also, should a player not get their pick in before Monday @ 8 AM, their bye will be forced upon them for that week.

Since there isn't a week between games in the MLB, you may make your next week's pick starting on wednesday. Just post your next team and I'll sort it all out on monday.

On monday mornings I will make a time stamped post to the effect of "Week #1 now set" When I make that post, you are not allowed to edit your posts for any reason until I give the OK for new picks on Wednesday. If, during that time, you edit your pick for any reason you will be eliminated immediately.

Finally, the last person standing will be the winner and receive a fabulous prize consisting of an XBOX 360 Arcade System and other random prizes.

So, if you would like in, just post your week #1 team in this thread before May 5th. Week #1 will run from May 5th to May 11th. I will take entries until May 10th, but players who join late will lose their bye week.

Please ask any questions that you have before the contest starts.

Good luck!

One quick question: it doesn't matter if someone else picks the same team as you in a given week?

Thanks and Boston Red Sox for my week #1 pick

Nope, doesn't matter, you can pick any team you like as long as YOU haven't picked them yet.
 
I'm in. I'll take the Red Sox week 1.

Also, if it gets that far what about All-Star week? Will that week just be skipped or require less wins?

If it gets to the allstar break, we'll just take that week off.
 
what a great idea. My pick for week 1 is The Oakland A's.

Question... if you make a pick for the week and it ends up not being correct, do you get kicked out or lose your bye and then get kicked out your next incorrect week?

If you miss your pick for the week, you're out.
 
Sweet! This sounds like fun.

Count me in.

I'll go with the hometown Pirates to start me off.

Please don't let me down, Bucs!... I don't want to be eliminated in the first week.
 
I haven't watched more than a couple of innings this season yet but this might get me to watch more. I do keep up with the standings and all so that might help.
 
I will take Boston Red SoX in week 1.

By the way, what happens if everyone is eliminated in the first week?
and, Will all players and teams be posted in this thread?
Love the competition! Thanks for starting this!!!
 
I am in with the D-Backs for the first week.

=====================================================================

5/9/08 - I am fine with the format change, I will take the St Louis Cardinals for the second week.
