Who you like? Me, I’m trying to find a reason, any reason, not to pick Duke...
Are we going to have a GH pool?

I don’t think duke will win it. Or Gonzaga. Or Virginia. Or Kentucky. Or Tennessee.
I think the Tarholes cut down the nets, although my hatred for Kansass could propel them to a championship
And please, not Michigan st, I’m sick of seeing Tom Izzo on the sidelines. I want some new blood to win it. Texas tech or Murray st.
I don’t know poop about college basketball this year other than I know who I don’t like. I’ll fill out a bracket though if you chumps are in.

I never fill out a bracket. Never have. If the hogs aren’t there ( which they never will be again under Mike Anderson) I’ll always root for the underdog. Not a good strategy for picking brackets
Since it’s just you and me Barry, how about you take the Big 12 and I take the ACC?

Sounds good! My final four picks are Kansas, Taco Tech, Kansas State, and OU
BKB
I’ll join in. If we are going geographically I guess that means I get the B1G.

Come on QA, you know you want the SEC!

loldid four teams from the SECget in?
BkB
But you have to pick four teams onlyfrom your conference. Whoever has the most at the end wins.
BkB
That rules me out then. I want Tennessee to lose every game in every sport for evermore. unless they play Missouri then I want them to play to a scoreless tie into eternity
The PAC 12 is available.
BKB
I rather take my chances of getting to the second round with the SWAC
Go Prairie View Panthers
Okay, I’ll take Dook, Carolina, Virginia and FSU. But, I’ll be pulling for Virginia Tech.

Wisco's a 5, that's dangerous ground
It was either them or Maryland. Maryland was too inconsistent this year for me to pick them.

That’s Maryland’s problem in a nut shell. Rejected by ACC fans and not accepted by Big 10 fans.

I still have a hard time thinking of Maryland, Rutgers, Nebraska, and even Penn State as part of the Big Ten. Guess I’m a traditionalist.

Well, the B1G is 6-1 so far with Ohio State still to play. Of course the only loss happened to be Wisconsin. At least I’ve still got three of my picks left.

I’ve lost K State so far. But not to worry, the Sooners have Virginia next!
BKB
I guess RT will take Liberty from the ASUN conference!

I'm taking Penn State...we're talking wrestling right?
Kansas and Villanova gone!
Not as many upsets this year it seems.
BKB
Purdue was firing on all cylinders last night against Villanova. Four minutes into the second half, Purdue guard Carsten Edwards had 25 points, and Villanova had 24.
If my Boilers continue to play like that, and no one gets hurt, they may keep playing for awhile.

I've been working all week (Mon-Sat) for a local estate sale company here. They have been doing estate sales for something like 30 years. They also "buy out" houses. Some people don't want to wait or take the time for a formal estate sale and want a house emptied immediately, so they'll make an offer to empty the house for them at an agreed upon price (which means the "stuff" is practically free as the time, labor and transportation to completely empty a house pretty much eats up any profit potential). Anyway, they had a large warehouse FULL of stuff that was left-over from sales through the years, or piled in after a house buy-out. They also have an antique store, so a lot of the stuff gets "cherry-picked" before going into storage. The problem is, they keep piling the stuff in, but never have the time to do anything with it, so it sits and the pile gets bigger. They have 2-3 of these warehouses full of stuff and they lost their lease on one of them this month. EVERYTHING has to be out of there by next Sunday (EOM). They have an estate sale to run this week, so yesterday was D-Day ... EVERYTHING had to go. Needless to say, I did a LOT of "picking" during the week and dug out some pretty cool "junque". ;)
I brought home a couple truckloads of stuff all week that I "bought" for pennies on the dollar (traded for my labor helping with the sale). Plus I still picked up $500-$600 in cash for my effort. Such a deal, huh? ;)
As I said, they'd pretty much cherry-picked the stuff before putting it in storage, but what I like and what they like, aren't necessarily always the same. I had them deduct $75 from my pay, in trade for crap that I should be able to sell for 2-3K. I'm just starting to dig through some of the stuff today. No pocket knives, but I did load up on edged tools ... antique chef's knives, axes and hatchets for example. In fact, I just finished listing a 1950-1955 Boy Scout hatchet with the original handle. It's in nice shape.

Well shoot! That hatchet only lasted a few hours before it sold. That's the way I like it ... paid $1 ... sold it for $87.50!
I'll admit, it looked like crap when I bought it. The handle had been painted and the head was covered in rust. But ... I brushed some paint remover on the handle and wiped it off with a few paper towels, then hit the head with a wire wheel. 10-15 mins. later and after wiping it down with an oily rag, I had what you see above. Easy-peasy and a nice little profit to boot!
If you fucksticks are interested I’ll See if it’s possible to do a pool now that we’re down to 16 teams?
Typical Good Hunting! There ya’ go ... tryin’ ta’ Change the subject! 😉
Technically this thread is titled March Madness and it is March and most of us here are as mad as a hatter so I'd say we're all on topic.
