The object of Yahoo! Sports Survival Football is to be the last Active member of your individual group.
In order to accomplish this goal, a user must correctly pick the winner of one professional football game each week.
But, to make this somewhat simple task more difficult, each user can only pick each professional football team once during the season (this does not carry across multiple groups).
If a correct selection is made, the user will remain Active for the following week. If an incorrect selection is made, that user will be Eliminated.
