Hello Folks,

ESPN has given us a 2nd chance--a new contest starting from the sweet 16. I have already set up a group for us--the group name is outbrackets 2 , and the password is outsports . Please note the lowercase letters.

Look forward to seeing you all, especially those who had Florida winning it all! wink

Note to jerseyguy59--WOW! That was fast!! eek!

It's no use... it's always the ones who dont know basketball who win... prime example... lady from germany who is working here for just 1 1/2 years now... missed gonzage then hit the next 23 in a row correct... I should have just handed her my 5 bucks and saved the headache.

This is just the break I was looking for. Good new for me, bad news for everyone else. As we all know, I AM the basketball expert around here.

Da Kid.

Hey PhillyFan:

1) No more Gonzaga,

2) No five bucks, and,

3) No lady from Germany.

Stop whining, put on your big boy pants, and sign up already!

GOYANKS - We'll see if speed helps me when the games begin. After the way I did in the first two rounds, I doubt it.

PhillyFan - I know what you mean. I used to work with a woman who'd make her picks in the weekly football pools based on the cities she wanted to visit. She used to win more times than night. Used to drive me nuts.

Let me add that this woman has watched ZERO games... and while the rest of us curse her name... hmmm and i thought the immigration was supposed to be tougher...

Our group has eight members so far. You have until Thursday Noon to fill out your brackets. Let's go guys, there's only 15 games to pick this time. And I've put a ban on German women who are new to this country from joining us, just for PhillyFan!

I just signed up this morning. I even picked Syracuse to upset Oklahoma in the East regional and Kansas to win the West regional. I have Texas and Kentucky advancing out of their regionals and meeting in the finals with Kentucky winning the whole enchilada!!

Hey guys,

We're now up to 15 players. Only one more day until the tourney continues. Get in your entries!

I'm Sweet 16!


and never been...never mind.

I'm in. Mostly because my thrilling ride at (okay, near) the top of leaderboard of the original contest is nearly almost over due to the elimination of Florida. Is the state of Florida responsible for everything bad that happens in my life?

So I did enter the second chance contest, but the only changes I really made were in the now Gatorless section.
