sinatra7 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Yahoo doesn't count the play in game in their point system. That allows everyone to sign up until the last possible minute. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 There's another free one at www.sportsnet.ca that offers prizes. I'll post a link if I get around to it. Link to post Share on other sites
TJ_Eckleburg 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 Pleased to see the turnout. Only problem is I have no idea who is who from the forum to the name of their pick-set. I guess I'll just have to win so I can talk all the trash. I'd planned on doing that anyway though. Link to post Share on other sites

matthiggins 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 my name should be the same for both...UNC would play the play-in winner in charlotte, not syracuse.sorry...the opening round winner. I guess the committee is strongly discouraging people from calling it a play-in game because both teams are "in" the "NCAA tournament.I think the play-in game should be between two bubble teams. I wouldve rather seen Depaul and Maryland fight for a spot tonight. Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldve rather seen Depaul and Maryland fight for a spot tonight.I agree... and have them play the team the committee agrees to having the weakest case for being a 1-seed (coughWASHINGTONcough). That would make things a little more fun. Washington to play the winner of Maryland/Notre Dame. Start March Madness off on the right foot. Link to post Share on other sites

jeff_536 3 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 UNC would play the play-in winner in charlotte, not syracuse.I meant in the Syracuse Bracket, ya know?So why DID the NCAA change the names of the brackets to the host cities instead of the old way (East, Midwest etc.)Doesn't it just lead to Abbott and Costello type routines about playing UNC in Syracuse or Syracuse in Austin?blech Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe cause it used to be mostly west teams in the west, etc, but that changed to whoever goes anywhere. You're guess is as good as mine. Link to post Share on other sites
TJ_Eckleburg 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 What kind of FCP bracket group would it be without Smash's familiar yet lovable biting sarcasm. We need to get at least one of the Smasharoo's in on this too. Even the clone obviously has a yahoo ID, because he set up a yahoo account to have his hundreds of dollars emailed to it.

That would make things a little more fun. Washington to play the winner of Maryland/Notre Dame. Start March Madness off on the right foot.I'm not convinced Duke has a better case then Washington. Duke lost to Maryland twice and they missed the tournament. They split with Wake and UNCWashington has the number 3 RPI in the number 2 rated conference (yeah it's behind the ACC). And they swept Arizona. Again, if you switch the resumes and put Arizona in Wash's shoes they get a number 1 seed with no controversy. Link to post Share on other sites
