Nick Chrisman was built for contests that rewarded staying alive. He finished 18th in NFL Survivor, lasted eight March picks into Day 6 for a share of 32nd and read 3 of 5 NBA totals correctly for 39th.
The portfolio formats were harsher. An NFL Playoffs entry without a futures return tied for 208th, hockey shared 212th and a 239.4 golf total landed 220th. The majors turned the late slide into a 46-place drop.
Chrisman's 1201 points placed 156th, 46 positions below his earlier mark. His judgment was visible; the expensive part was how completely his weakest entries erased it.
