I don't even know what does perfect bracket mean, but apparently I lack the right citizenship to be eligible anyway, but some of you might give it a shot.

perfect bracket means that you got every single game right which has about a 1 in 1,000,000,000,000 chance of happening

Just the winner of each match, no score related bets (margin, over x points etc., exact score)? Something like this http://media.nbcchicago.com/images/WinningBracket.jpg ?

Then it is worth the time to fill it in (semi-)randomly.

even a rumor about signing a player causes him to cancel his agent immediately and cancel trip. whatever Gettleman is doing is horrible for our reputation around the league. nobody wants to come here if they have a choice. horrible GM

i won't call him a horrible GM he did great last season, i understand cutting Steve... we wouldn't be under the cap right now if we didn't cut him, if we can get Cyrus Kouandjio in the 1st round (LT), sign Cotchery and Britt and draft another WR and OL/secondary i'd call it a successful offseason considering our cap problems....gonna be in cap hell again next season trying to get enough money to resign Cam gonna have to make somemore cuts

I would jump off a **** bridge if we drafted Kouandjio in the first.... He is a 3rd rounder who has been totally unimpressive.

Yeah I saw that. When I was that age if I would have smacked the camera or tried to smack my dad whatever he was doing I wouldn't be here right now. I hate videos like that when parents antagonize their children.

This is about as off topic as it gets, but I've had to use the bathroom for an hour now and I can't get my toilet unclogged to save my life. So freaking frustrating.

Lol. Wearing rubber suits, sucking on a lollipop to get enough saliva to spit. Going a day or two without eating.

Thank God they have restrictions on that stuff these days.
