I'm happy to defend my title, but link is to a Globe article on Colon.

It's not looking good if you picked two #16 seeds.

Random Selection isn't working out too well. I think Stanford could win it all, though. Will that make up for me having Portland St in the finals?

Posted by ConorClockwise on 2008-03-21 14:48:59 +0000
Um, tgl's Final Four is pretty ugly.

Posted by jbcardinale on 2008-03-21 15:08:24 +0000
USC killed one of my brackets, but the rest is all chalk.

Posted by dyedon8 on 2008-03-28 06:26:12 +0000
Shit = tight.

Posted by tgl on 2008-03-28 18:58:50 +0000
I got points for Xavier advancing to the round of 8. For the rest of the tournament, only Stanford can add to my total.

Posted by tgl on 2008-03-28 19:01:17 +0000
Everyone else picked Xavier to go that fair as well, natch. ...and I didn't really "pick" anyone. I just kept hitting random until a school I recognized was the winner of the tournament.

Posted by ConorClockwise on 2008-03-29 04:10:01 +0000
It is a decent game right now. Could come down to the finals...

Posted by tgl on 2008-03-29 13:44:56 +0000
Once again I find myself saying: "damn you! texas!"


Now I wish I had actually made my picks. Not that I'm really following this thing other that looking at the final scores.

I have dinner plans tonight, so, no road trip to <a href="http://www.mgoblue.com/ice-hockey/article.aspx?id=132000">Albany</a>.

...OK, that's enough links for a Saturday morning.

Ouch. The UNH Wildcats lose to The Fighting Irish (is there any other kind?) of Notre Dame in the first round.

Posted by ConorClockwise on 2008-03-31 23:52:40 +0000
Olde joke tgl.

Posted by tgl on 2008-04-01 00:05:07 +0000
The Drunken Irish?

Posted by tgl on 2008-04-01 00:05:24 +0000
Ye Olde Drunke Irishe

I've realized I'd like yahoo to let me see the worst brackets, like in "low ball"/worst hand poker, and then see how close tgl got this year... What's your percentile, tgl?

Posted by tgl on 2008-04-04 04:02:58 +0000
23 of 60 gives me a 7th percentile showing (for now).

Posted by ConorClockwise on 2008-04-07 19:27:21 +0000
Victory is mine.

Posted by jbcardinale on 2008-04-07 19:38:14 +0000
Well done.

Posted by dyedon8 on 2008-04-08 07:43:34 +0000
The champ!

Posted by dyedon8 on 2008-04-08 07:46:23 +0000
Not only is Conor the new champion, but he:

a) correctly predicted the final two, and
b) GOT THE SCORE RIGHT.

A toast!
