Destroyed the brackets, I had vagina going to the final two.....and still am in 1st, whoa. Zombo Just got a BIG gift, Cincinnati has clear sailing to the final four now. Watched the highlights- those guys shot the lights out from three land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Well, ugly first couple of days ... but with all of the destruction, I only lost two of my Sweet 16 (Virginia and Witchita St.) and none of my Elite 8 ... So I'm in for the long run... Zombo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjp28 Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Normally if you're good on the E8 and F4 you're in good shape, this year it might come down to the final pick unless they are the same. Elite Eight 8 points 32 points 128 points Final Four 16 points 32 points 160 points Championship 32 points 32 points 192 points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 The good news is I did not have Virginia in the Final Four... The bad news in I had Arizona beating them in Round 3. A quadrant is a terrible thing to waste. Still... as low as my point total currently places me, my point potential hasn't been bashed as badly as many of the "current leaders".

Who gives a shite about ratings? Only the networks so they can make money. I am interested in competitive balance. Having Purdue, Texas A&M, West Virginia and Gonzaga in the Final Four would be just as compelling as having those other boring teams in. If Duke, Kansas, Kentucky are in it...I WON"T watch it.. But if those other teams are in...I will. So much for your ratings theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSS It can be one of the most fun sports times of the year.....but as I have said, my interest in it has waned because of the Blue Blood hegemony in the sport.... And as appears possible...this FBI investigation may in fact uncover evidence that those programs are Cheating to a vast extent. If you don't think that Calipari, and Williams and Coach K are not handing 100K bills to recruits.... well, I think that anyone would be a pollyanna not to believe so. Sean Miller and Pitino are certainly not aberrations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
