    BG 8th Annual March Madness Thing (and Tournament Discussion Thread)

    Hey, it's college basketball season. Man, I like March Madness, they should really play college basketball more than 3 weekends a year.

    The home page is: http://games.espn.go.com/tournament-...?groupID=46732
    Group Name: Orderofthebluegartr
    Password: whereskentucky

    (Blame Tyche for the password, that's what he set up last year).

    If you were in the league last year, I believe you can just click the "Rejoin" button, although you may need to enter the password.

    If you have any problems or questions, let me know, either by posting here or a PM through this website. Tyche might have to be involved since he's the owner of the group.

    Couple of notes: it's going to lock once the first game starts, so get in before then. One entry per person. It would be helpful to put your BG user name in your team name so we know who you are...or post it on the league message board or post it here or something, so I can get your name right in the list of pretentious jerks below.

    If enough people are interested in raising the stakes, I'd be willing to be the manager of that situation. These things are always more fun with a little more involvement. If that kind of thing interests you, send me a PM and if we get enough interest, I'll start a conversation via PM. Got to get it done quick, though, as everything would have to be done prior to tipoff Thursday AM.

    Obligatory GO HEELS post. Wife is pissed they're in the same region as Sparty but she doesn't mind UVA because Joe Harris is dreamy.

    Also Louisville lost to UNC and Cincy, they should be a lower seed.

    Postseason Izzo, team's healthy, everyone's picking them, etc. Seems like a relatively weak region outside of MSU.

    Name on there is ChadBoulden (sorry, don't want to create a new one or change it for every group)

    UNC couldn't be more Jekyll and Hyde this season. Wins over top ranked opponents, losses to horrible horrible teams. I'd put the same odds of making the Final Four as I would going out in the first round. They totally screwed up my BetBud stats this season (I only bet on ACC games on there, usually do pretty well but Thanks UNC!)

    Will root for Witchita in every game except Louisville's should they play. Or until Plow becomes insufferable.

    Your UL stat of the day.
    4 seeds have crashed the final four four times in the last 8 years. Louisville has done it twice. And they're a four seed again.

    Chronically under seeded.
