      I think I have UCLA and Texas in the Final Four. It's fun in the beginning, but that bracket won't win anything.

        I'm counting on that. Otherwise I'd just give up now.
        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          Texas is a possibility if Coach Barnes gets out of his own way but FUCLA might be a real stretch.

          • I hate to complain, especially when someone else has gone to the effort to provide some fun for me, but the bonus points SUCK.

              Just FYI to everyone, bonus points are not a new thing here, we've had them the last two years. Previously, when a 9 seed beat an 8, the bracket owner would get 3 bonus points, but this year they get 1 point for that. The big upsets this year get more bonus points (the bonus is just the difference in seed #s), but the small upsets get fewer.

                Do they really matter for you?

                    Well I got more right than some who have more points. That makes me think it matters. However, maybe I am missing something.

                    I am not that mad, I just wanted an excuse to say SUCKS.

                      • I finally picked an upset with VCU that CJF didn't pick as well.

                          yeah, the thing with this setup is that it creates a huge gap between those who call the upsets. It will be interesting to see if that gap can be overcome.

                            Let's hope so!

                            • Today I went 13-3.

                              Total for 2 days, 25-7.

                              2 sweet 16s out, all elite 8 and beyond still intact.

                                Preach it, brother. What a dumb, dumb idea.

                                I have made three more correct picks than that wanker, UtahDan, and he still leads me in points. Are you kidding me?
