I really like Louisville and Michigan State, as well as Florida. Really though, any of four or five teams could make a run through the Midwest.

I will care about basketball for as long as it takes for my billion dollar bracket to be busted. I give it about 5 more hours.

It's never truly the start of the tourney until you hear Bill Raftery say "Man to Man!"

That is EXACTLY what my buddy and I were saying last night! Can I make it past the first 5-6 games!

...aaand down goes Ohio State.

Warren Buffett probably came out ahead on that game alone.

When in doubt, pick against the Big Mistake. My thinking paid off in game 1.

I found all of the bracket challenges that I could win money in, because why not. I think I had Dayton in all but 1 of them.

10 of 55 in ours.

after 2 games, we had 9 people with perfect scores, 45 with 1 of 2, and only one 0 of 2.


Using the CBS website to host for us again this year. So far it is working really well. Far superior to the old system.


Kind of amusing that a basketball tournament website works so well, while [redacted].

Oh, I didn't do that much. I just went to CBS, Yahoo, ESPN, Fox and KFAN and entered those.

3/3

I didn't really have to go out of my way to do any, so I figured, why the hell not?

OK, we need to have a conversation with Albany about their jerseys.

Re: BouncyBall 2013/2014

Well, after losing the very first game of the tournament (not so bad -- yet -- since I had that game's winner losing to Syracuse), I'm now 5 for 5 since. Which is meaningless given how our pool scoring system works unless I pick several Final Four teams correctly too.

Still, it's kind of fun. These are the best four sports days of the year in a certain sense.

They're right there, along with the Masters, and New Years Day.

84% of yahoo took tosu. So yeah. After one game, the field was down to 16%.
