      On ESPN's Tournament Challenge after day 1, only 317 brackets are 16-0 out of 5.9 million. Think there were a lot that went 15-1? Only 16,958. CJF you're doing really well.
      It'll all average out today.

        I picked a bracket for a lady while I was on my mission and got like 30 of 32 right or something ridiculous. By the time the sweet 16 came around almost none of my picks were left.

        Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

          • Texas and Oakland underway. Anyone have Oakland? This was a weird one because Texas was both a trendy pick to be upset and to potentially upset Duke.

            • I've decided I don't want to participate in this. How do I get my $10 back?

                I didn't take Oakland. It was a trendy pick but for the life of me I could not understand why. Oakland is a crappy defensive team and Texas can be a crappy offensive team at times. Texas is never a crappy defensive team and if they are having an easier time on offense it is game over for whomever they are playing.

                • Hey, can someone explain the scoring to me? How do I get 13 out of 16 correct and yet I am behind about a dozen people who only got 12 out of 16 correct? WTF?

                    bonus points for the upset they picked are killers. it would have been so much worse if scottie hadn't taken off the multiplier.

                        upset bonus for every upset you pick correctly you get as a bonus the difference in the seeds added to your score.

                          That's stupid. I demand a recount.

                            Or at least a baseball-esk revenue sharing model between the new champ and the last two champs.

                            • Today has been a nice recovery day for me (8-for-8 with Ohio St).

                              Inches me into the top ten of the money group, and puts me in 1st for the free group. If I manage win the free group, regardless of the money group I'm going to be a pompous asshole about it.
