OT: Vegas March Madness Baby! 

Post#1 » by theBigLip » Thu Mar 20, 2014 4:58 am

Off tomorrow morning to spend the next 4 days over indulging with March Madness and everything Vegas has to offer! Anyone interested in any futures bets on Pistons and the 2014-15 NBA Championship? I have no idea what the current odds are, but I'll be spending lots of time in the sports books, so I'm sure I'll lay down futures bets on... the Tigers :-)

Dayton already busting a vast majority of people's brackets. Every year there's someone.

Adreian Payne just boosted his draft stock. 41 points, 80% from 3, 100% from the line, and 8 boards for good measure!

I know right? No wonder it's virtually impossible to get a perfect bracket. My goodness.

Just for the record, I would've gave each of ya'll 500k had I won it. So thanks Warren, for not letting me win and a big shoutout to Dayton, Harvard, and Oklahoma.

I got Harvard right, but not many people I know had Dayton. Tomorrow I'd expect Nebraska, Okla St, and Tennessee win as under seeded teams.

Correct on that. Tennessee is looking good. Looking forward to Michigan-MSU playing in the finals :-)

If that happens one fanbase will have to leave the state forever. Both sides have an unbearable portion of their fanbase, and they will be VERY vocal if their side wins.

Walmart Wolverines vs. Drunk and Dumb Spartans, a battle with no winners :lol:

All that said, GO GREEN!

When Michigan State plays big games, the only winners are furniture companies. :lol:

Both teams have tough matchups ahead in the Sweet 16. Tennessee is no joke and Virginia is getting seriously underrated for a 1 seed.
