By technicality, I'mma have to discount the picks you made that were already played before you posted, zilla, but all your others count.

IF YOU WANT TO JOIN, OR WANT TO CONTINUE, THE NEXT ROUND'S PICKS ARE WORTH 2 POINTS. SO, TOMORROW, WHEN MAKING YOUR SECOND ROUND PICKS, SPECIFY SO.

[zblewski]

The five I have down for picks are: Me, Vice Man, Leo, Vlake, and Zilla.

Odds reported by The Score (Canada) that someone would get all their brackets right: a Quintillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000) to one (1)

[xxZillaxx]

WTF, THAT ISN'T FAIR. Everyone has UCLA... and btw They won. So if you discount me, you discount everyone.

[DollaChoppa]

[q]//also doesn't matter, they wouldn't make it past UNC in the second round[/q]

fuck that. Thornton 35, Taz 25, and Bo with 15.
CJ blocks fagsborough like 10 times.
And temple shuts down everyone else.

You went late... it's a fair techicality when someone makes a prediction on a game that already happened.

[zblewski]

Also, tabulating scores.

It looks like lack of preparedness by everyone for second round, since it's already going?

You didn't post the options. Anyway, the second of every pair.

[Leo]

Louisville wins round 2. Calling it 3 mins into game.

Sorry I didn't get round 2 in, but I was gone for the weekend. Can I at least get a point for UCONN since I have them going to the way, regardless of the rest of the tournament?
