    I have an online brackett pool for my sister n law...
    I also have one that my uncle puts together that we fax in...

    they are all just 5 bucks a pop..so i have my 10 year old daughter and my 13 yr old son fill em out also..

    my son's is prolly more accurate than mine...

    my daughter has creighton going all the way...we live a few miles from the University and she was pen pals with one of their players last year thru a program at her school...

    so funny....no one's picking them...even the homers here arent so if they happen to make some noise...she's gonna win... and my 13 yr old son will never hear the end of it...

    That is awesome.

    I thought about taking tomorrow off to do the same, but I am going to a bar at 8am on Saturday morning for St Pattys day so I can save it for then.

    Yeah, its on Saturday. We don't go to the actual parade, but every bar in the city seems to open at 8 am, so I like to take advantage of that.

    FSU seems to be the popular pick to get to the final 4 out of that bracket.

    So anybody's bracket busted yet? I got 12 out of 16, damn Wichita St choked away their game, not surprised though against VCU. Syracuse made a lot of people sweat yesterday!

    No pool for me but I'm heading to Saint Louis next week with a bunch of old friends from the neighborhood for the round of 16 8-) . Yesterday's games had no real upsets or buzzer beaters :shock: . Today all the games from the Midwest are playing, not a fan of any team in the bracket :? .
    Looks like I'll take pleasure in watching teams lose ;)
    Yeah, I'm from NY :evil: ..............Wanna do something about it :twisted: .................... :lol:
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
    What You Giving

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.
    Run away my son. See it all. Oh, See the World!

    Not bad at all. I was 13 for 16. Lost on UConn, UNLV and WV. I did have VCU though which was nice...I actually have them winning this next game against Indiana too.
