Man I almost forgot what it was like to have Michigan win a tourney game! I like it! Back after all these years and come in and beat Clemson. Not many people had that game. Remember the name Manny Harris!
I actually picked that one (as well as #10 MD beating #7 Cal & #12 WKU beating Illinois). People all over WV were rooting for Michigan to lose, though.
GO LOUISVILLE!!!!!!!!!
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

I heard that!
Pitino is a bit old to be "throwing the L," but I love this picture. Regular & Tournament Champions in the toughest conference ever.

so you.... no doubt ....must be sitting pretty as of now in the office pool.....
nice call on Michigan, Maryland and W. Kentucky.................
im hoping my 2 upset picks come through today.....
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
I went 15-1 yesterday, sitting pretty sweet right now! Hopefully UL doesn't become the first #1 seed to lose to a #16 this evening.
Who are your upsets today? The only one I have today is #14 Cornell beating Missouri. And I think Siena will beat Ohio State, although that's not really an upset on paper but in name only.

The Lord Obama went 11-5 yesterday.....
My 2 upsets for today???
#11 Temple over #6 Arizona State
#9 Tennessee over #8 Oklahoma State (mild upset)
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
That's a tough one....those yellas at Oklahoma State can play some ball, and are probably much better than a #8 seed. However, I'm calling Cornell over Mizzou (far less likely than your scenario), because anything can happen!

im 14-2 and looking pretty good as of now.....and hopefully im still looking good come the weekend...
BUT...
My brackets can EXPLODE the next round or 2....
I dont have N.Carolina, Duke or Connecticut in my final 4........hehehehehe
So im either gonna be a bracket genius in a week or so......or a blithering idiot!!!!!!
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Buddy of mine showed me this pool he enters for March Madness....
They actually auction off each team. He bought Connecticut for $5500 (actual fucking money)
There is over $50,000 in the pool....It may have been $70,000(just a crazy amount of money)
If your team wins the first round game you win $750
If they win the second game it was $1,200
But if Connecticut doesnt make it to the elite eight....My buddy is going to lose money....
As the rounds go on the payout obviously increases................
That seems like one hell of a pool to get involved in....
Obviously you can get some teams for bargain basement prices and the higher ranked teams go for big money....Louisville went for $6,000...Duke and N. Carolina went for big money too.....
Gonzaga was bought for $1,100....which could be a bargain....they make the sweet 16 and your $1,200 wins you almost $2,000.....
There were teams selling for $200-$500.............
Very cool pool......and im glad im smart enough not to get involved in it....
well that.....and my money is sitting right in the bank where it belongs....hehehehehehe

its great though...isnt it...
and i was thinking the same exact thing....its got to be a bunch of college kids with huge gambling problems!!!!
hehehehehehehehe............
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Think of the guy who bought Mason 2 years ago.....
Those fuckers made the final 4????
My buddy wasnt quite sure what the payouts were for that year....But he says he may still have the results at home, and he will bring in the payout sheet tonight.
And i cant wait to see it.....
Its a fucking great pool.....And again....
Thank God I never knew it existed!!!!! hehehehehehe
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
So as intriguing as that pool seems....I have my doubts.....
And i knew the second i mentioned it ............that it would instantly catch some people eyes....
The more and more i thought about it last night.....
The more it seemed like a pyramid scheme for the guys with the big money.....right???? or maybe not???? I dont know...i guess they are putting in the big money to begin with...(so there goes that theory) heheheheheh
I really need to look in to this pool some more....hehehehehehehehe
I mean come elite 8 and final 4 time.....Most of your 1 and 2 teams are still sitting pretty....right????
But again i only looked at it for 45 minutes last night....I want to get the payout sheets from the last 2 years and see just how the money was distributed........
because again....
its just a cool fucking pool....

Was and still is a big east fan.
Not sure how far Marquette can go but they are fun to watch.
No shit really?
Yea if he was still playing they could have gone far. But he's there on the sideline cheering them on. Should be a good game today.
Then they can get their asses kicked the next round.......
hehehehehehehehehe...........

Look for the mid money-teams who always seem to find a way into the sweet 16 or elite 8....
seems to me you always see
Gonzaga
Villanova
Temple

And once i thought about the different scenerios......
I was happier than hell that i dont get involved in something like that!!!!!! hehehehehehehe
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
I sat there with him for 45 minutes as he explained it to me....................And i was just so fucking mesmerized by it.....
Who was the team last year who advanced??? Davidson?????
The guy bought that team dirt cheap(i wanna say $300)...........and he made HUGE MONEY!!!!
Last year they almost had $100,000 in the pool....
