CINDERELLA FGCU?!
>Wow! what is going on? The FGCU (almost, no it does sound obscene?!) Eagles beat #2 seed Georgetown! This is a wacky year! Knew it would be! A number 3 (New Mexico), a number 4 (Kansas St), three number 5's ( OK ST, UNLV, Wisconsin) all lose in the first round! Two Number 1's ('Zaga & KU) both have trouble putting away # 16's. A number 3 (Marquette) needs to rely on a last second layup to win! What does this mean? Is the NCAA committee hopelessly inept, or is the parity in the first 50-64 top teams closer than we think? All I know is that it screws up us stiffs (where is our homy Doug Moe?) trying to win our brackets! #2 Georgetown tanks and SEVEN players lose one of their Great Eight teams and THREE players lose a Final Four team! Ouch!!
ANOTHER FREAKY FRIDAY
>Just like last year, the first Friday humbles us all with lower scores than Thursday. Last year TWO number 2 seeds lost on Friday, so beware of TGIF next year!
DAILY KUDOS
>Friday's best score was 12 out of 16. There were Four players that were able to achieve that.
PISTOL PETER BURG, DR. HOOPS ANDY GREOS, AND 1 ADAM SWANSON, and LONGHORN TYLER SWANSON were our Best Guessers on Friday. Great Job guys!
NICKNAME DESIGNATION
>I have come up with our Rookie BRAD UNKLESS'S Nickname as it was one of the easiest I have ever had to do! The official name will be BRAD DUNKIN' UNKLESS! There are multiple options with this, which may well be used in the future. BRAD DUNK UNKLESS, BRAD DUNKLESS (which I like a lot, and it may morph into) or DUNKIN' BRAD UNKLESS! Hope you like it!
>PIERCE still thinking on yours! Will get it by the end of the weekend!
SWEET SIXTEEN
> We have 11 players for the Sweet Sixteen, so we have 5 openings. If we do not have a full sixteen, I will adjust the field so that some players may get two teams, but the pot will be reduced.
ADMISSION PAID
>I think for the first time in 17 years, everyone is paid up. Thank you to all!!!
CORRECTIONS WANTED
>Please let me know if you think your score is wrong. I try very hard to get things right, but late nights and a few cervezas have on occasion tripped me up. Please let me know if your tally is different than mine. I will advise you that three ballots have had blanks on one game already, so I have to count these as incorrect.
