Title: College Bracket Challenge
Post by DJ on Mar 13th, 2006, 1:05pm
Hey everyone!

I've set up a group on ESPN.com for everyone from the site who'd like to join in making a bracket for the men's NCAA tournament.  It should be fun and give someone some bragging rights!

Even if you don't know much about college basketball, fill out a bracket... it can't hurt.

Here's the address: http://games.espn.go.com/tcmen/group?groupID=100610&password=null  

If you have any problems joining the group, please let me know!

GET YOUR BRACKETS SUBMITTED BEFORE FRIDAY!!!

No problem Tim... I created 3 different brackets myself!  ;)

Everyone can create up to 5 different brackets...

DJ--can you keep this permantly on top. That way I don't have to look for it?
Yup, I'm lazy.  :)
I need to do my research before I make my picks.

Awesome!!!

Last year, I played with one bracket for students who lived on campus at Jefferson.  For the longest time, I was in 1st place until the final 4!!  Then I dropped to like 7th in the end out of like 65 or so!  It was way fun.  At the time, my boyfriend was a guy who'd majored in health and phys ed, and he kept saying, "How do YOU know anything about basketball?"  LMAO

So much fun!!  Thanks Deej!!

 I don't know what to say cuz now that I have already signed up the link automatically takes me to my brackets, but what i was doing wrong the first time was i wasn't clicking the button to set up a new account. it was right above the username password thing. Ddid you ever get my e-mail about the womba thing?

..........................cheers.......tim

Thanks Tim, I fingered it out.

Using Opera browser the "Creat new account" thing does not show....I got in using another browser.

What happens now?....do we get to pick teams or something later on?.....I sure hope this is basketball for dumbies cause I have never even watched a basketball game.....LMAO ;;D

Medic I am with you on the Cats. I remember what UAB did to us 2 years ago so I am not looking ahead to UCONN. Speaking of UCONN, if we get to play them, that could get ugly. But anyway............Go Cats!

 Jonny, I just call my Mom-in -Law who lives in henderson nevada and ask her what the oldtimers at the sportsbook in SamsTown are saying! Thats why i put 2 brackets on there i'm hedging my bet........those guy's start drinkin at about 6:00 am and I'm not sure thay can stay up late enough to actually watch a game ;;D...... and some of the teams they like sound an awful lot like racehorse names.

fair warning to all you gonzo fans...everytime i pick em they don't come thru and i like them this year so get ready to throw beer cans at me.....(preferably full)......tim

I feel guilty getting in on this....I've been in lurker mode for some time now.....but there's something about March Madness that I absolutely love. Thanks for doing this DJ......since I don't have a "real" job I never get to do this. Not too many actors interested in the brackets.

Hi everyone.  Man oh Man, I am feeling the luck of the Irish today.  If you notice on the ESPN bracket board, I am in 3rd.  Maybe it's a hold over from my basketball cheerleader days.  Although I didn't know S*&t about the game then either.

Post by Sandy_C on Mar 20th, 2006, 7:30pm
Darn!  I've been out of town and missed the whole thing!  Too late to sign up.

But, in my humble opinion, it's gonna be Duke (whether you like them or not and I don't particularly like).

Post by pfunk on Mar 24th, 2006, 10:42am
I'm guessing that even though I'm in a tie for 4th, I'm pretty much mathematically eliminated from this challenge.  Did Duke's lack of real scorers screw the bracket up for anyone else?  :o :o Other than the fact that I did think they would win it, I really don't like Duke.  I'm an SEC fan and look forward to LSU and Florida doing well from this point forward. ;) 8)  Much luv and PFDs to all.

If LSU wins it all, will they have to share the National Championship with USC?

Then I know nothing -5. As long as Villanova wins, and everybody else loses, I'm supposed to be happy.
