I posted a whole blowout in the commish slack on where we stand. Let me copy and paste.

What a crazy end to Survivor we have going on! Here's where we stand.

Studque: 2 strikes, can pick Cleveland, then out regardless of result

Apollo: 2 strikes, can pick Baltimore, KC, Cleveland, Green Bay or Tampa, best remaining chance to make it through Super Bowl

Bucky: 2 strikes, can pick Cleveland, New Orleans, and Green Bay, can get through Super Bowl with Browns help

GB13: 1 strike, can pick Cleveland or Kansas City, cannot make week 21 pick.

Is that really a hard decision for me?

Well, there's also the strategic "take strike" option, leaving you a guaranteed pick in week 20 when everyone else could go down this week...

Just sayin'.

Yea i did the G710 testing but they wouldnt have been for you at a 3hdcp; too much of a SGI iron. You've got quite a good set-up going now too. I'd highly bet we'll see the Ping G425 drivers and irons, the Cobra Rad speed (and maybe full bag), and i'd prolly bet the new callaway Epic drivers. Options options options!

If the Apex Pro irons come up as a test opportunity, then there's a very good chance I'm going to blow it early... Always wanted to give Callaway irons a real shot, but have bounced between Mizuno and Ping since high school (ever since I replaced my trusty/childhood dream Cleveland VAS  with i3 Blades). The only thing that would hold me back is if the testing and reviews absolutely need to happen in February (I could always be the mats-only test case).

Don't hold your breath. Callaway and Mizuno are very stingy with iron tests in my experience. If you search the official reviews you will find only 1 single test of cally irons in 2017 and they were G.I. irons.

Yea, I'm not actually expecting it to happen... I know Callaway does their own product tester sourcing through the Callaway Community (including the new Apex line recently), and their terms say that if you're selected, you have to return the clubs within 7 days (which would be a definite "no" for me this time of year). I'm just slightly hopeful because they had something good come through MGS in both '17 and '19.

1) Testing definitely won't happen in February.  We typically don't start them until April timeframe so we can try and include as much of the country as possible.

2) We don't have commitments from Callaway for anything at this point, but that doesn't mean something won't or will happen.  It's still a bit early for those commitments.

Yes please!   It was love at first sight if I'm being honest...

A big congrats to @GB13 for winning the survivor pool! With Baltimore loosing and I have opponents playing against each other I sadly can't make the superbowl and it will be my 3rd strike, which leaves GB with only 1 actual strike the whole season! Impressive to say the least.

Well Jaime, GB would take strikes because he's out of teams. Therefore, if you get through this week, you'll tie.

Technically yes, but given he has the 1 true strike i believe he would deserve the true win. Not getting a strike till week 15 is awfully impressive.

Maybe I should have been placing bets. But either way, I enjoyed the survivor pool, it was a fun side game.

So anyone have a spot open in a dynasty league team that needs a new owner?
