The bracket is here: wish it was beautiful

[Oznogrd]

So whats everybody think about march madness this year? It should be fun with Dickie V dickriding the ACC and Big East. Still a little surprised about the louisville #1 overall but *shrug*: whose ready to flip channels and get nothing done for about a week?

I'm 23 of 32 so far in my bracket. I can't believe at all that Wake Forest lost. The 5/12 matchups also had 3, yes 3 upsets. ridiculous. I have no time to watch games really but I usually catch the early games like the ones that start at 1:00 pm.

Arizona over Utah wasn't an upset as Utah were overseeded. Same case for Western Kentucky over Illinois as they were always not a very good team. I picked both of those upsets. I thought about taking Cleveland State given their conference tourney play, but end up sticking with Wake Forest like everybody else.

There's usually at least one to two 12 over 5 seed "upsets" each year, so definitely no surprise....

I'm also 23 out of 32, as all the 50/50 games went against me....ahh well, at least my Final Four teams are intact & 7 of my 8 Elite Eight teams (WVU being the eliminated) are still dancing....

DeJuan Blair is going to be a superstar.

I'm always amazed by the people on the ESPN bracket challenge that nail 31/32 of the first round. Of course back decades ago in school, during a math class on probabilities, we picked brackets based on coin-flips and there were a couple that hit 80% accuracy.

Speaking of which: Obama's.

DeJuan Blair is going to be a superstar.

yes, I am mighty impressed too

[Doobie]

Do you guys think DeJuan Blair will be a big time NBA Player? Like, the guy is extremely undersized for the Power Foward position, will he have to adapt and possibly have to play the 3? The impressive thing about him as that he plays a lot taller than he really is, and he isn't afraid to use his body to grab boards and pound his way to the basket. Great player in college definantly, but will he move on well to the NBA?

[benji]

Jason Maxiell. Charles Barkley. Ben Wallace. (Who's really 6-7.)

Blair is a Barkley level talent. He looks like freakin Shaq out there against some teams. (And they have similar moves.) He'll have no problem.

[The X]

I'd add Elton Brand to that list as well....doesn't this Blair guy have a real long wingspan for his size like Brand?!?

[benji]

Lulz, my hometown Spartans jacked everyones brackets for sure. (And Obama's Final Four got raped this weekend.)

Weird, when I saw the results of the recent games my first thought was that everyone's brackets got screwed. Does it mean that I barely care for the games but just only for the results?

[JaoSming]

my ESPN one still has Uconn in, but I did that one as my fantasy/what I'd like to see happen
my coin flip one has been done for a while now...

and my CBS one still has Uconn around, my other three were Loui, OK, and Pitt


blah, what a shit year for me

[Fresh8]

I should have gone with my gut and chosen Michigan State to make Final Four... but no... I had to go with Louisville...

I still have the other three teams though...
