I know Enki's with me on this one...Halfway through day 1, no surprises yet... Memphis can thank Sallie for surviving. I think Washington may go down, but I didn't pull the trigger on my bracket. I also strongly recommend the CBS Sports iPhone app.Let the madness begin!

    Oh yeah... I got an all Big East Final Four... it can totally happen! UConn v Louisville, Villanova v Syracuse => UConn v Syracuse (rematch of the most epic game I've ever seen) => UConn baby!

    Fu[/b]ckin' A right!

    The only time I've seen UCONN all year, though, was that 6OT monster vs. Syracuse. In fact, that's the only college basketball I've watched this year.

    First time I filled out my brackets, I had UConn taking both. But since then, I changed it to North Carolina in both cases.

    My wonder is whether Louisville can go all the way.

    f*cking Cal. I pick them out of pride and they flail.

    I've seen UConn 3 times this year...the OT madness and the two losses to Pitt.

    Thabeet is the best center in the country and should be a good NBA player.

    Based on the three games I've seen I don't see them going too far in the tourney.

    damn I had Miss St. making it to the sweet 16. that was one of my sleeper picks.
    I also had Butler over LSU.

    I'm 5-2 so far.

    My final 4 are WF, Memphis, Pitt and UNC

    Gotta ride for my alma mater:



    So far my bracket is 8/8. I need Villanova and Clemson to pull some shit out to keep it going.

    Just got back from the games here in Portland. WKU was trying to give me a heart attack there at the end.

    Butler and Clemson let me down. Otherwise...14-2 bitches!

    UCLA and W. Kentucky were both trying to make me for a fool at the end, but they ultimately gripped.

    Oh and to the guy who picked Cal out of pride...FOOL! The Pac-10 really sucked this year (and I'm a huge Pac 10 fan). That kid on Cal with the pony tail is going to be sweet, though.

    I will be repping Temple at some random local sports bar this afternoon.

    Great logo and mascot, but I think Temple will lose.

    Illinois and California let me down. I'm also 14-2 right now.

    You may be right, but I will either enjoy drinking away the pain of their loss or drinking to celebrate their upset victory.

    UConn v Louisville

    I got L-ville. UCunt can eat a dick.

    Went 14-2 the first day. And of course it was the 2 teams closest to me that threw me off. Texas, my alma mater, I picked to lose. And Clemson, the team my nephew plays for, I picked to win. With no close connections to any team today, I should go 16-0.

    Great games this morning -- Oklahoma State pulled out a tough win against Tennesee.

    Big 12 is 6-0 so far, and looking like it's ready to give the Big East a run for its money. SEC is 1-2 and looking like it got too many invitations.

    My bracket is holding up strong. Dayton and W. Kentucky making me look like a genius! Let's see if Wisconsin can make three for three tonight...

    Yes!

    My bracket is holding strong too. People in the office think I'm magic. I just got lucky on a few picks, but I'm still happy to take all their money.
