I wonder what happened to NYYFAN. I thought he usually set this up.

Oh well, thanks for setting it up in his stead.

I'm in. I wonder what the record is for changing your picks in the final 24 hours before it locks. I think I may try to break it.

Just checked the brackets...with Kansas losing....18 of the 32 entries already have lost their national title pick :eek: . One person had New Mexico as well.

The other 13 of us (myself included ;) ) are still alive with either Kentucky (5), Syracuse (4), Duke (2), West Virginia (2).

First place. :gulp:

In last place but if Syracuse/OHSt. make it to the final four and WV/Kentucky lose along the way........epic comeback.

Everyone's bracket is pretty much shot

The only final four team I have left is the one I picked to win the championship - Kentucky. My hopes are riding on that. :lol:

So much for that.

Syracuse is disappointing and Im tired of BS 3's that are luckily falling in.

I'm in. I'm also predicting I'll be in last place.Seems I was much more prescient about how I'd place in the bracket than I was at predicting game winners.

Next to last. Woo hoo!

Out of the blue, I decided to look at our standings. :scared: :lol:

Wow. Fingers crossed that Duke wins. I hate Duke but if they win I may be winning some $ in another pool I'm in. I'm sure I am jinxing myself now. :o

Duke will win and I, also, will win some cash in another pool. Good luck. Go Blue Devils (the second most hated team in America).

Good luck to you too! :)

Turns out I am in second place behind one of my bosses in the work pool. Oh well--I should still make out with a decent amount of $. If Duke wins. Uh yeah Go Blue Devils! :barf:

Didn't you win last year?
Hope ya win again!!

I cannot believe I am tied for second place at the moment - if Duke wins, I will be in third... but holy busted brackets :D

I think I won two or three years ago?

It was a crazy tournament. I could not even follow most of it because we were on the cruise. They had soccer on most of the TVs on the ship. :(

Congrats, Danielle! Two time winner. Next year, I'm asking you to fill out all my brackets. :lol:

TinoFan84

04-06-10, 09:26 AM

Well I finished 11th this year ... just out of the Top 10 and probably my best showing ever. Not to shabby. Congrats Danielle on winning the bracket.

Ha ha! Thanks you guys! :D It was fun. :gulp:

I came in 2nd in my office pool behind my Big Boss the VP. He does not need the money, that's for sure...but he got a nice chunk of change.

My winnings will pay for getting my hair done today, which is nice. :)
