In all reality, thats usually the formula to do pretty well, You start over analyzing games and make picks but there is always some cinderella teams that are nearly impossible to call, especially if they go deep into the tournament it can royally fuck your bracket

Probably what most people think when you tell em about the Dew Tour or X-Games or Twall and fulltilts. Obviously we like to watch and fill out brackets.

why hate?

we do so shut the fuck up.

i've had a few loses...but none that effect anything the early rounds aren't worth to much...but wake forest absolutely sucked...i had them in the elite 8...only my big loss so far

and GO DAYTON!...WVU isn't that strong of a team.

I'm way shocked marquette actually one...i had them to lose...Marquette is with out their best player, and they aren't that solid of a team to begin with.

I'm surprised Wisconsin won...the big ten usually sucks it up during tourney time.

Tomorrow should be a good one, i got Western Kentucky over Gonzaga in that round i hope they can do it again.

Pitt scared me, they are my national champions

Kansas scared me as well


As long as you have your final four teams still in...you are still in good shape.

i'm doing decent. 

really nice call on Syracuse....i have them losing to Memphis in the finals but they can play.  they have nobody to guard Blake Griffin when they run into Oklahoma but I'm hoping they can just outrun them.  They'll run over UNC if they make it that far.

and being from Pittsburgh i'll tell you yesterday was no fluke.  they are the biggest choke artists in basketball come mid-march.  they will not make the final four.

western kentucky should have beat gonzaga i had them beating the zags...if only they could have played an ounce of defense when they were tied with 7 seconds left...or atleast fouled him and had him miss the shot and let him try for the pressure free throws...don't just let him drive like that

pitt and kansas better not let me down tomorrow.
