Kansas!

Can you FEEL the excitement?

[LynneSin]

2. why couldn't you use your damn screen name for the team

How do I know that's your picks at #3?

[underpants]

3. Because I am a MORON

that is the answer to both questions

I didn't understand the instructions so I entered 45502 where I thought it was the entry code

:bounce:

19. As my sister proves every year...

you don't need to to know anything about basketball to do well. She's competitive every year.

8. At first I was pissed...

because I FORGOT to pick a winner in the championship game.

Turns out...uh...It really wouldn't have made a difference!

Congrats Jimbo! At least we kept the traveling trophy in Wisconsin!

9. All bow to the awesome JIMBO!

As Jesse Jackson says, "Keep hope alive." I wasn't going to give up until the final horn. I was in the 65-70 percentile for the middle rounds, but no one ahead of me in the standings picked Kansas to take the title, so I knew I still had a slim chance. Finished on a 6-1 run.

The same bracket won me $220 in the office pool. And better yet, beat out my boss's kid for the cash. :)

On edit: Thanks to LynneSin for putting this on again this year!

11. I did badly...

but I still beat madinmaryland.....:woohoo:

12. Linkie again? I was on vacation and my team lost in the first round, so I kinda checked out early.

I did, IIRC, have Kansas in the final....

[LynneSin]

13. you were in 16th place - not bad

16. BAAAH! Not bad for having my pick to win it all lose in the first round! LOL

17. I'm ticked off

that you finished higher than me..I was trying to be objective..(well okay I had Georgetown in the final but they were a no2 seed..not unreasonable).
Well, I guess its better to be lucky than good huh? Pffft!:P

18. Doctors.... They can be SOOOO clueless! When they find that God particle, it's going to kick their

collective asses! :rofl:

14. But did he beat the "No-brainer?" The No-brainer is picking the highest seed in every game.

The Final Four would be seeded by the final AP poll standings.

I'm guessing that the No-brainer did very well-- Davidson was really the only glitch...

15. Wheeee, a post so profound it duplicated itself.....
