My Morning Bracket

[TheThird]

Has anyone noticed the frequency "Seven Nation Army" has been played by the bands this year?

[Darkstarflashes]

DAMN that was a good game. Proud of the Cards for playing so well against an NBA team. A Kansas win right now gives me the overall win for the pool, an Ohio State win gives it to Crispy.

Jay Hawks baby!!!

You are so very right! Louisville played another great game! They tied it up in the middle of the second half 49 to 49 (just like they did during the Dec. 31, 2011 game 40 to 40). Killer try at an amazing come-back! I love both teams. I was wearing my Blue Grass Braggin' Rights "It's Geaux Time" ... Battle for the Bluegrass T-Shirt that featured both teams, was wearing game-day stickers of both teams on my face, and was drinking out of my Cardinals cup I saved from when I saw their 3 home games of the 2006 NIT at Freedom Hall. However, I am still very excited for Kentucky! I went there right out of high school for the 1985-86 school year and am from western Kentucky (finally graduated from WKU in Bowling Green). Where I used to live, UK is ALWAYS on TV. So... UK All The Way!!! If we can get our 8th championship, we will only have to win 4 more to pass UCLA. Go Cats!

So, if Calipari wins his first NC tonight, does he take the money the Knicks will throw at him and run?

I sure wouldn't leave the good thing he's got going at UK.  I mean, all he does is bring in the best freshmen class every year and ride them for one year to a run at a NC until they bolt for the NBA and wait for the next class of one and dones to come in and compete for a NC.  Why would you want to leave that for the circus that is the Knicks?

Why would you want to leave that for the circus that is the Knicks?

He has an ego the size of an ocean

[aMillionDreams]

I predict he'll leave either way.  If history repeats itself he'll leave right before the NCAA busts the program and whatever UK does tonight will be vacated.

He already has 42 vacated wins from two other universities.  Pretty soon you'll hear Anthony Davis' name in the same breath as Derrick Rose and Marcus Camby.

I would be stoked if Calipari left UK, because the realist in me knows its gonna be hard for UL ever to triumph over UK with his recruiting tactics (whatever they may be).

That being said, Anthony Davis is another story. I cant wait for him to go pro so I can support him in a jersey other than his UK one. I mean, the kid is fucking amazing. He deserves everything basketball throws his way, even if his coach is unethical. I don't know why I'm a UL fan, cause I like UKs players and hate ULs players.

Other than this man
Gorgui Dieng the Lion King



god, that shot around 1:15, the most exciting emotional rollercoaster of my life.  Louisville as a city collectively went "NOOOOOO-YYYESSSSSSSSSSS"


though I find this video somewhat distasteful, i also find it inspiring cause Gorgui is THE MAN.

Congrats!

I actually won both my brackets, I guess choosing the final game perfectly is enough to save you from shitty first round picks. I was garunteed to win my other one, because literally all of them had UL going all the way ;D

[capt. scotty]

Alright, so 12 brackets were paid for (I think its funny how the 2 that didnt both would have finished in the money). So it looks like it will be

E-wind: $80 (well, 78.82 because for some reason Hawkeye and Trish's payments both were charged a 59 cent fee and I only got 9.41)
Jon T.: $30
Myself: $10

That basically goes with the breakdown I posted awhile ago, let me know if that works for you 2 and I'll send you cash

[Hawkeye]

E-wind, if I ever meet you, I owe you a stick of bubblegum or some other 59-cent thing of your choosing  :coffee:

Nicely done.  Enjoy my ten bucks. 

[Clarkwork]

Worse bracket I've ever had

[e_wind]

i dont mean to sound like an idiot or a  butt, but is there something I need to do on paypal to make this happen? I've never received money on there

[Jon T.]

I forgot about this, but haven't gotten anything yet, either.  Maybe Capn's been busy.  You should get an email to the account you have registered with PP when you receive money.

[e_wind]

Cool, just making sure there would be some kind of notification. Thanks

[capt. scotty]

Sorry about the delay, just sent you 2 the loot!

I have no idea why, but I was able to send EWind the whole amount (78.82) as a personal payment owed without any fee from paypal as expected. No matter what personal option I chose to send the money to Jon T. (payment owed, gift, living expenses, other, cash advance) it charged a $1.17 fee. I guess its the same thing as why Hawkeye and Trish had a fee before, maybe its your guys bank or something, idk, but I couldnt figure out how to send the money and get around it.
