March Madness 2012 Contest

[DU]

The Bracket has Been Made.

Here's a free contest - using the same names from the Indy 500 I have the following draw.

43 members - these were randomly assigned (using random.org) to the top 43 teams.

The remaining seeds 11-16 were then randomly assigned to 43 members.

Some NPers get TWO teams! Some get one.

100 NP for Winner

What position does she play?
Is she a tightend or a wide reciever?

[johname]

What position does she play?

I was thinking like


I think shes Small forward on the baskettball team, tightend during football season

 

[briguy]

**********************************

1. There is only one certainty to filling out a March Madness bracket, and it is this: You will lose to someone who has never watched an NCAA basketball game in his or her life. You will also lose to a 7-year-old, a golden retriever and a lobster.

Hmmmm..

Looks like I could have the #2 seed that goes out in the first but still has less SUCKAGE than Duke.

The irony if Ohio upsets Michigan and Duke loses will make me laugh all weekend..

The only thing I got right this week is that

DUke Sucks!

The only thing you got right was quoting that guy who said we would get beaten by a 7 year old and a labrador.
