Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

10-6 after the first day. That sure sucked.
Biggest problem is losing USC in the Final Four...good thing I don't have that pick in the money pool.
With one Final Four gone already, and the other three slots pretty much consensus picks, good chance I get boxed out after the next round or two.

Your head must suck too, since in our money pool I'm 14-2 and you're a pathetic 9-7. You must be talking about a different pool

I'd like to say it's early and I can still kick your butt in this one, but besides losing all those games yesterday, I've already lost 5 teams in the next round.

Thank god for the money pools.

Got spare money?

why do you pick different teams if you think that one of them is going to win, and then pick the team you had losing in a different pool?

Gonzaga and USC, which was ok, because in that pool, everyone had gonzaga and only one person didn't have USC.

I did three pools with different picks.
That one I did great.
my other money pool i was 11-5
and fortunately this was the one i went 9-7 or whatever.

RAH
I'm sure today will bring new surprises. but the one i did 14-2 in the closest other person was 11-5

Holy blue f***, that's quite a lead.

As poorly as I did the first day, I'm still sitting pretty in my money pool. A few people have the same Final Four as I do, but I didn't see anyone who had it play out the same way.

Of course, if Kansas doesn't get their crap together, I might be in deep doodoo.

And there is always one Final Four team I lose in the first round... look out, Oklahoma.

I too have Kansas going all the way so I feel inclined to comment. Let's ask Stanford how Kansas is doing.

"Hey Stanford! How is Kansas doing?"




Of course there are still 30 minutes of game time left.

Plus the injured guy was the first substitute off the bench.


(Of course with my luck the entire Kansas starting 5 will spontaneously combust at half-time. )


BTW, did anyone else see any of the Alabama game? Alabama looked like they were playing in cement-shoes. They looked like they were down 30-0 at the start and were just going through the motions.

Yeah, I must have had vapor lock of the brain on that one... the MAC almost always places at least one team in the Sweet 16. I've gotten only 3 of the 8 so far. Not my most shining moment.

But only MBloomIII has the same Final Four as me in this pool, and we have it playing out differently... there is still hope. But not much.

As am I. Tons of potential points still available for me... including a mind-boggling possible 7 out of 8 Elite Eight teams. Normally I lose at LEAST 2 of my Elite Eighters and 1 of my Final Fourers in the opening weekend... but not this year

Yeah, I've never had all of my Final Four or six of my Elite Eight teams left at this point. And I'm in LAST! Hard to believe I still have a chance at victory in this one... sadly, it's not to be in my money pool.
