Mods, Sticky this please.

As more my pre-bracket Final Four: I'm going with Kansas, Texas, Georgetown, UNC/Duke, but this will change once brackets are released. Plus I'm not all too confident in Texas right now.

Mods, wake the :cursing: up and sticky this. I'm in, and is there any way we can see the final standings from last year?

[Awesome]

I was looking for the thread from last year's but I haven't found it yet. I forgot who won, but I know I did pretty badly. ****ing UCLA.

[Awesome]

Here it is:

P.S. Sorry Barkeep, I didn't know you were always the one who set it up.

Same rules apply, if I win everyone has to tell me how great I am. A new sig line will be shown once I set my picks. It will be epic. And yes, I might just be entering five brackets into this single group.

[Awesome]

STICKY THIS LITTLE BEAR

There you go, Director Awesome.

I think I did pretty well last year, except tOSU killed me by losing in the 'ship.

Any takers on Drake all the way????

try your boy gut.

on a side note, I'll get in, but wait till next week, otherwise, I'll forget my screename and crap.

I did ok last year. I was 12th heading into the final weekend with all of the final 4 correct. I know I didn't win it, but I did ok.

Is this a challenge?

How about I put Drake as the champion and you put your team as the champion.....:innocent:?

[DawgieStyle]

I'm in. I picked way too much chalk, but damn this year is so top heavy. You look at each game and go, how in the world is that upset going to happen.

[Awesome]

My new sig is out....if you can see it.

But I will agree, I went with a lot of chalk, really not a ton of compelling upset games for me to agonize over. Although I did make one bracket an upset special, Play-In Winner FTW!

[Brave2001]

Well since its likely down hill from here....let me take this chance to say:


I'm In the LEAD!!!!

I'm taking my sig offline until a bracket I actually made picks in is my top one.

Eh, I can't figure out the tabbing in this. But at least the names and rank are all in line. If you need more, just go to the site.

[smsandmsuson]

Stanford is my key in all my brackets. I dont think anyone here has Stanford beating Texas let alone getting to the FF and the NC. If they can, I think that will punch my ticket for braggin rights

[FearDaTrees]

I have Stanford in the Final 4......not so fast my friend.

[smsandmsuson]

Mine just went :blowup:

Stanford was my last chance at anything.
