Official FishingMinnesota NCAA Tournament Pick Em Contest

[Scott M]

Since the opening tip of the Big Dance is less than three weeks away, I thought I'd drum up some interest in getting everybody organized into one contest. Last year we had two different contests with two different scoring systems and two winners. This year we want one clear winner!

Scoring is default Yahoo scoring which you can read about when you sign up. The play-in game isn't scored.

This year men's college basketball is wide open, sign up and see if you can pick the right winners.

You need an account at Yahoo. Do a yahoo search for yahoo tourney pick em 08 and sign in. The league number is 14510, the password is basketball. Picks have to be in by March 20.

No entry fee....!

But I'll take you on the side head to head for $10...

So I suppose I'm going to have to show everyone how you go about doing this then huh.

You don't watch a single game all year. You make your picks right at the deadline going by nothing other than your gut feeling. You hoist the trophy at the end of the year.

Hmmm, a Gator would eat a badger, plus my favorite color is orange. And I've always liked visiting Florida. Let's go with Florida.

Tons of fun! I'm in for sure! The teams with better mascots or names are good ones to pick as well! (My 2 cents anyways)

[smartguy]

[maros91]

My bracket is complete. U C L A let's go U C L A!!!!!!!

[tisosy11]

you aren't going to win unless you have Notre Dame v Clemson in the finals!

[maros91]

I like Clemson's press but thats about it. I think they rank 310th in FT shooting pct. Tough to win a close game when you have to knock down FT down the stretch.

[Scott M]

22 people signed up. 2 more days before the opening tip...

[tisosy11]

Love the free throws!

[Scott M]

Picks have to be finalized before tomorrow's ~10 a.m. tip off. 28 people signed up.

[10,000 Casts]

jeez, I just looked at my Bracket.... Last Place, I am getting spanked, Don't call it a come back!

[Scott M]

Points are worth more with each round. Pick tghe Elite 8, FInal 4, or Nat'l Champion and you can win it all back.

[tisosy11]

I'll need that!
