The men's NCAA Division 1 Tourney starts tomorrow for Basketball.
There are countless sites (but not on A2K) where folks can try to predict the winners of the first round's 32 games and then narrow their selections down to who will win the last game on April 5th.
Yahoo, CBS, Fox, ESPN and probably others have contests where, really, thousands upon thousands of people will play.
Are any of y'all playing? (Noon on Thursday is the deadline I have seen).
If so, let me know how you fared after the first day. Thanks. -rjb-
I am maxed out on play cards and partials and a max bet on the final 4, so , if i lose, one kids gotta go to community college
I'm rather proud of myself for predicting Flordia to go down.
Damn... you should be proud! I'm going to bed now so I can't see how the night ends. I picked losers in Florida, VCU and Mich St so far. -rjb--
Not well at all:
Florida and MSU (who I had picked to get to the round of 8, beating St. Joes and Gonzaga along the way) hurt.
SIU and Air Force Losing hurts a bit (my obligatory upsets), as does Texas Tech winning.
Uconn will make to the final eight. After that????
Well, Manhattan College is on the way to the NCAA title. Now, with the Knicks the obvious winners of the forthcoming NBA title game, New York City will have finally recovered their long lost title of "Basketball Capitol of the World".
Gonzaga won last nite and maybe Eastern WA will win tonight.
What ever happened to Southern Illinois?
Go Terps! Although I'm not sure they can pull off a win tomorrow.
Hi, y'all...
Leary: I picked Syracuse over Md but I kind of regret it. The Terps are looking good.
Miller: S. Ill lost to Alabama.
Flyboy: Manhatten could handle Wake, but St Joe?
Acquiunk: I've got UCONN until they might hit Duke. Duke should be vulnerable but it seems to me that Duke has the easiest path.
Neoguin: You're hurting...but don't feel badly. Last year, out of some 400,000 players, I was ranked at #10000 for a few hours, but then I had a bracket implode on me and I ended up at something like 350,000th.
I suspect that there are are some people, with a lot of time on their hands, who submit multiple entries covering just about every permutation.
I did just one.
Please keep in touch. Sports is not a popular topic on A2K. -rjb-

Duke is the problem for Uconn,... always has been.
Gonzaga made my bracket feel bad.

If only the Terps had a few more seconds tonight.....
I think Nevada made everyone's bracket explode..
I'm excited to see Wake and St. Joes
Orangemen and Huskies, its a Big East final in Phoenix
those were a couple of exciting games last night... go UConn!
