he's not had any luck lately. Steele has missed a season and a half, guys left early and some other injuries.

Yeah.

I'm not a fan of the guy so I'll just keep my trap shut. :D

it's tough for me. Gottfried went to school with my brother and best friend from B-ham.:o

I hope they keep him. He's originally from less than 10 min from where I grew up at.

You should probably reconsider this thinking.

They are in dire need of Adrian Dantley right now.

Ya....I live on the same planet as Gottfried.




:rolleyes:

LOL, just checked the standings and I'm in first place. All I can say is- not for long, my west is a mess!

How 'bout Orlando Woolridge? He was Louisiana HS player who enjoyed success in both South Bend and NBA.

P.S. I had 15 of 16 first day and it has been downhill since. Two OT losses by one point and where I picked lower seed to prevail, zip, notta, nuthin'... Good luck to leaders from midpack "hanger" here.

A little improvement 2nd round with 6 out of 8 today...can only go 6 out of 8 tomorrow though and will be rooting for Siena !

this one's surprising for me... out of all the brackets I have, the one on here is my absolute worst!

best one's got 38 points, but in another pool...oops... should've copied it.

DT HOOPLA! Herk, Zippy, Swede Set Pace
 

First 48 games in the books and Herk leads but has a problem going forward... Zippy, Swede and several other pacesetters are far better set up heading to the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 games next weekend... Some strong brackets by the DT cagers...

one of my better brackets besides the fact that I picked ND to win it all (I thought they would be WSU, but was pretty sure that UNC would take em out but I thought what the hell). Had I picked ND to lose 3rd round to UNC I would have had UCLA winning it all and would probably be right in the runnings.

My best pick was villanova in the Sweet 16, worked out because I had my upset of Siena over Vanderbilt and then Nova over Siena in the 2nd round.

Also, Stephen Curry on Davidson can ball but he looks like a 12 yr old.

My best sheet had Wazzu, Davidson, Villanova, WV, and Mich St... along with the usuals that are still in (it's actually 1 pick better than the one I have in 11th place... 1 pick from 1st... in the local CBS pool for an all-inclusive trip to mexico).

i have 6 of my final 8 alive and all of my final 4...... for Now!:rolleyes:

I have 10 of 16 through the Sweet 16 and 7 of 8 to the region finals ...C'Mon Carolina Heels!

the brackets could get tighter after tonight or completely fall apart.
good luck eveyone!

It's been a great bracket season this year... in my pool (which 75 entered) only less than 15 have no shot for "in the money" payouts so far. You're absolutely right... tonight and tomorrow will make the picture clearer.

stanford just took me out! only chance i have left is michigan st make the final 4.

I'm toast

Looking good here!

Miraja, Willie, Hoff, Tigger vie for title

I hope you had permission to display that Thebby photo.

Looks like her face could use a trim.

^^^ Renting the Invisible Man's brain.

^^^ wishing he could "be the man!"

^^^ Excuse me....make that renting George Bush,Jr.'s brain.






We wouldn't want to insult the Invisible Man.

Will think of "snappy" comeback in a parsec or two.

She should lose the orange lipstick.

I take that as a compliment.....liberals scare my wallet :eek:

^^^ Monopoly money scares his wallet.

Living in liberal N.Y. you're sure right!

^^ Breaks omerta routinely.

Chalk eating weasels, hilarious! Anyone with all #1s in final four should be DQ'd

I was just going to brag about my last place finish but someone did worse that me!:o :o

Good thing I do better at the horses....

Four No. 1s and Davidson Accolades
 

Chucky the Chalk-Eating Weasel is my hero! I have FOUR No. 1s. First time in NCAA Men's Tournament history... the number 2s (except for Texas) were the overrated teams.

While I didn't have Davidson, they should be model that other mid-major schools use. Play very competitive non-conference schedule. It helps your RPI and, more importantly, it lets your team know what it it like to play top-flight competition. Davidson players NEVER had "deer in the headlights" or "golly-gee-gosh" look during entire run. Bravo, Davidson, very well done!

Oh, herk, isn't objective to pick best bracket? My underdog choices failed me and two OT games broke against me. However, my No. 1s are came through.

Shwing... http://www.uselessmoviequotes.com/files/shwing.wav

Got 3 out of 4 and may prove a winner :D in the DT contest, the only place "chalk" may be worth it.

The excitement isn't killing me.

i have 3-4 but best i can finish is 4th, i think.:o
