OFFICIAL!! Brackets gloating / moaning thread

[taterguy]

I'm 3-0 bitches

[LynneSin]

1. DAMN YOU TO HELL STANFORD

Hey, I got my one loss out of the way in a round where it's not that many points and I didn't have stanford going on further than the 2nd round.

Unfortunately in my 'Blue Bracket' (which isn't in the DU group) - I had Stanford in the final 4 - they were the bluest of that group

[taterguy]

2. Never underestimate venue location importance

Stanford had to cross a few time zones. Louisville had to cross half a state.

[LynneSin]

4. I just figured that Stanford had more of those "San Francisco Values"...

...isn't that what we're trying to do to the rest of the country?

[taterguy]

7. Inflate property values?

The house I live in would cost seven times as much if it was in San Francisco. I ain't a millionaire but I'd have to be if I wanted to live in San Francisco. :)

[SteppingRazor]

3. I'm 2-1 ... stupid Texas Tech...

I didn't join the DU bracket group, but my picks are on my blog.

Admittedly, I got a little silly — I have the championship as being a rematch of the NCAA football championship :silly:

I also had every No. 10 beating every No. 7 ... which, obviously, is a dead deal now.

[taterguy]

5. Bobby Knight is a well-known Repuke

And since we all know that Repuke is a synonym for loser that's why they lost

[SteppingRazor]

6. Touche.

:P

[GOPisEvil]

8. I should have known better than to trust Bob Knight.

That's my only loss.

Texas A&M win! :woohoo:

[texas1928]

9. TECH SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

I was going for BC.


YEAH WAY TO GO AGGIES!!!!!!!!

[GOPisEvil]

10. I was trying to show some conference loyalty.

Plus, they beat A&M twice this year, so I wanted them to do well. x(

[taterguy]

11. Is the Conference loyal to you?

I doubt it. Sucker.

[GOPisEvil]

12. Yeah, the Big XII stole my girlfriend once.

Once.

[texas1928]

15. I live and work in Lubbock...

I have to hear how "wonderful" Tech is all the time. Bobby Knight could take a dump on their lawn and they would build a shrine. I have no loyalty to Tech.

[taterguy]

16. Lubbock has got some good folks in it but they all dead

One of my all-time favorite Billie Joe Shaver lyrics.

You must be the exception that proves the rule :toast:

[taterguy]

13. 7-0 now bitches

Thought I'd get it out of my system while I could because I'm sure by the end of the night my bracket will crash and burn.

[ok_cpu]

14. 7-0 For Now

I'll enjoy a little gloating while I still can.

[rug]

17. Damn, I was rooting for Oral Roberts.

[WilmywoodNCparalegal]

18. I don't get Oral...

Roberts! :D

They were holding on for a little while.

[rug]

19. They choked.

[charlie and algernon]

20. 7-0 now, but about to go 7-1

damn vanderbilt!

[SteppingRazor]

21. KICK! How's everyone looking after 1 day? I'm 12-4

And I fucking hate Texas Tech, George Washington, Duke and Gonzaga

[taterguy]

22. I'm 14-2 bitches

If fucking Marquette and GD George Washington hadn't chocked I'd be perfect.

[SteppingRazor]

23. Weird that everyone seems to have picked No. 11 G.W. to beat No. 6 Vandy, no?

Looks like Charlie and algernon picked them as well (see post above this subthread)

[charlie and algernon]

25. yeah i did, dammit

we all fell in love with their defense methinks.

[taterguy]

30. I just don't like Vanderbilt's name

I guess it was tough day for schools named after turn-of-the century robber barons.

[charlie and algernon]

24. 13-3

GW, BYU, and Duke :grr:

[SteppingRazor]

27. I think VCU shocked just about everyone...

I think Pitt will beat the holy hell out of them, but still, nicely done.

I mean, it's not like I like Duke — I freakin' hate'em — I was just trying to be logical. I should've just listened to my loathing!

[tigereye]

26. well, I had picked Duke, Gonzaga and Marquette to win

so I'm down a few, but I was right on the other ones....


bye, bye zags! :cry:

but Pitt won! :party:

that VCU/Duke game was wonderfully exciting!

[Strawman]

29. Marquette

Didn't score until over 9:00 into the first half.

Go State!

[Strawman]

28. 13-3

ODU, Duke and Oral Roberts were the ones I got wrong.

I don't mind Duke losing though. If I gotta lose a Sweet 16 team, I'll take Duke.

I wouldn't mind being wrong about UNC either since their playing MSU Saturday.

[Redbear]

31. You rock, taterguy!

You are like in the top 4% nationally. Some other DUers are as well.

Im no. 34 of the 34 in the group!

[taterguy]

32. 3-0 in today's early games

Life is good. The only thing better would be if I actually had money riding on this.
