Yeah I already lost one Final Four team in New Mexico, losing Indiana(who I have going all the way)would have been a dagger.

Rooting for UNC makes me feel...icky. But I have them beating Kansas in my bracket so it would be huge if they won.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

When he met his swimsuit model wife, FGCU's coach Andy Enfield was a successful Wall Street executive. He banked a cool $7M so he could step away and pursue coaching.

Entered the same bracket in my office pool, and I'm in first there too. Still a lot of tournament left, of course. I'd love to proclaim this as a sign of my superior intellect, insight and basketball knowledge, but winning a bracket contest is mostly luck because of the single-elimination format. There are guys who simulate the tournament 10,000 times and whatnot, and the tournament "favorite" each year usually wins in those simulations about 1-in-4 times. Which means the favorite typically has about a 75% chance of not winning. It would be fun to actually win a bracket contest one of these years. :)

My bracket, which is 100% guesswork because I don't follow college basketball, is currently tied for 3rd in the group. Funnily enough though, my possible points are by far the lowest in the top ten.

I am in my rightful position of last place, but if Michigan beats Kansas, watch out gentelemen.

Tonight, I'll be cheering for Indiana. Just to support JRo.

(Well, just to support JRo and my own personal bracket).

My brackets are burning where I left my NCAA soul last night in the phone booth! It was brutal being at the Verizon Center last night. So many IU fans were butthurt!

My brackets are done. I suck at bracket picking every year.
