Yeeessssss! Still time to join people! It's fuuuun!

Yeah, even if you don't think you know what your doing, just pick "chalk" (the lower seed number for each game). Then change a game or three for some upset picks to make things interesting. You'll be as likely to win second as anybody.

BUT BEWARE THE NEOCON AGENDA!

In fact, you are probably more likely to win if you don't know what you are doing, especially this year.

Will you guys still be my friends after I administer the beatdown?

Hey we can see what each other picked now. So mine looks pretty stupid in retrospect, too, but dano - TX and OH????? mike - DUKE??????

I never claimed I knew anything about basketball!

At least football is less than 6 months away. *sigh*

Oooh! You'll have to play fantasy football: I've played in a league with danostuporstar for two years now. Did I win? Oh, yeah, I did!

We are definitely having a MetaChat FF league this year. For reals.

You make it sound like you won both years, rainbaby.

But, yeah, go OSU Bucknuts!!!
(I have TX in this bracket? In others I picked UCLA.)

Sorry.

I WON this year. I came in THIRD last year, still winning over you, right?

I won the Spofi NCAA pickem last year too. I won't this year though.

Anyone with BC going a long way sighs a big sigh right about now! My dog had them all the way to the championship. (We do a house pool, too).

GAH. I had Nevada going to the 8.

My Hoosiers win a nailbiter! Woohoo! : )

I've only missed 3 games so far. That Pacific/BC game almost killed my bracket, though. Glad BC woke up!

Yeah, rainbaby, I finished 6th in 2004 SpoFi FF. So I will grant you pwnage on that front. (Of course I did win the regular season last year, including beating yr ass down.)

Anyway, I've just got one thing to say...

Syracuse and Iowa!!?

HA HA! Atlanta hates you!
