Anybody been watching it?

I have, there's a crowd constantly around the main T.V.'s at my college. I just entered my sister's boyfriend's bracket game last night off a whim. Have you picked any team to win?

My dad and 17-year-old brother are always really into it when it gets here. My brother has 10 different brackets for how he thinks the tournament's going to work out. It's pretty ridiculous.

 

The only other thing I have to say is that as unlikely as it is, I hope SFA beats Syracuse tomorrow. GO JACKS!

I have Louisville winning it all.

Other teams in the top 4 are Memphis, Syracuse, and Villanova.

My brackets going well!

 

I'm 9 for 10 at the moment (botched the Brigham Young game), Villanova's about to win, and if Gonzaga holds on, that's 11 for 12. :cool:

Both my dad and my brother have Louisville winning it, too. My brother has Memphis, Syracuse, and Duke in the Final Four, while Dad has Pitt, UConn, and UNC.

I'm 8 of 10 right now.

 

Attached my bracket to this post.

^ great bracket! I'm too ashamed to show mine quite yet, as I have Michigan State going farther than any other bracket I've seen.

 

The rest of the night would be fine if Illinois wasn't slipping up so bad. They're down 12 now. Fortunately almost everyone's picked Illinois to win, so it will hurt everyone (except Western Kentucky fans) equally.

i can't understand all the fuss that NCAA generates there in the usa. i've seen that the final four will be played in the ford field in detroit. 70,000 people in a basketball crowd.. are you kidding me???

19 for 24 right now.

 

I got that Dayton upset right. WOO!

Good call, I messed up on that game, but I'm still 21 for 24 right now, which ain't bad.

we luvs our sports's! :kid:

 

 

 

 

Speaking of which, the Utah game ain't going so hot, and the leader in our pool predicted the upset. However, I can make up for it if USC can somehow beats Boston College (they're down by 2)

I got the USC one right, but really got screwed over by Utah. I had them winning two.

Oh man, these games right now. Insane.

And with that I move into first amongst my friends :D

I picked Siena, Wisconsin, and Cleveland State.

Ack, two OT games (one double) and I miss them because I don't have a t.v. and I was struggling with the live feed on my computer. :(

Wow, really? Smart call. I don't think very many people were expecting Wake Forest to lose.

 

Who do you have winning the Texas/Duke game?

Texas.....which isn't looking to good at the moment.

His bracket...

 

 

I'm 8 of 10 right now.

says Texas actually. I've got Duke. :edit: NM

as much as i'd like to be interested in NCAA, i really only know the probable NBA players next year. :(

You like basketball and Radiohead. Man you've got to get into proper stuff. But then again Canadians are shit at football (or sacccerrr! as North Americans call it) and even shitter racing drivers. Jacques Villeneuve?! What a joke that guy was in the end!

Do you find it a problem that we call it soccer? :inquisitive:

Yeah in fact loads of us British people have problems with you lot calling it soccer. You call American football, football, when you play with your hands 90% of the time! Tell me where the bloody hell is the logic in that?! Maybe explains why the US are so shit at it. You don't know how relieved people were when Beckham signed for AC Milan, a proper football team, rather than continue playing his trade for primary school standard MLS. No one cares about American sports in any part of the world apart from America. Over here the Super Bowl got amongst the lowest viewing figures for a late night slot.

American Football descended from early versions of soccer and rugy-football when the game first came to the states from Europe. Here it evolved into a different game with its own unique twists. I don't think it ever had a different name than football, meaning, like it or not they share a similar family tree. We didn't just invent our own game and say "Hey! let's annoy them british folk by giving this sport the same name!"

Well frankly my dear, we don't give a damn. No one over here cares about cricket (which incidentally is named after an insect) either.

 

In the immortal words of Brian Eno: "Fuck off, wanker!"

^ I agree with you.

 

I'm pretty sure that this guy is a teenager with alot of acne, is insecure about his body weight, and wasn't hugged by his mother enough as a child...and the only way to cope with this is by making pissed off posts with and angry face.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Back to basketball.....

 

 

 

so 14 of 16 on the sweet 16. Would have loved it if Texas would have won. And Utah losing in the first round messed things up for me slightly.
