Group: Gangster BB
Passw: Corleone

(If you played last year, you should be able to just re-join the group)

You can create up to 10 brackets, but only one can be added to the GBB Group. Entries will lock when Round of 64 begins.

One hour following the announcement of the tournament match-ups on Sunday, March 12th (March 13th for Womens), you will have the opportunity to select who you think will win each of the 63 tournament games. Entrants may change their selections as often as they like prior to the scheduled tipoff-time of the Tournament (currently scheduled for the morning of Thursday, March 16th; March 17th for Womens) after which all selections must be finalized.


2016 Results:

(Men) JL, DP, JG, BM, MC
(Women) JG

As long as it doesn't include the play-in games, I'm in. Thanks, Geoff

Everyone interested should be filling out their brackets; the deadline is coming up quickly....

Looks like Villanova took an early Spring Break, along with Mr Blonde and MaryCas!

Still tied for 2nd, even with my champ and another final four team gone. Gotta root for UCLA and a bunch of upsets now.

And my womens' bracket got saved but was not entered into the group for some reason (i.e.; user error). Oh well on that.

I unlocked the women's group -- I autopicked this year to save time and they came out terrible, so c'mon in and beat me lol

Thanks, Geoff

didn't make any picks, but stopped watching tourney once ref is STANDING RIGHT THERE and allows the Gonzaga player to put hand through the rim to block shot...and called nothing.

It was a long shot to repeat, but they are my team. After all, I spent $100,000 there (the least they could do is send me a shirt from last year) .

Mary,

You went to Nova? Has ANY team from Philly won a championship between the 2 Nova NCAA wins?

Phillies won it all in '08. Then it goes back to Dr. J and Moses in '83, which I realize pre-dates the first 'Nova title.

Thanks,Goombah.

Forgot about the Phillies.

Philly and their sports fans have such a reputation for being brash and hardcore.....so it's funny that Nova ,of all teams, is the one area team that's a winner.

I thought I was done after Kansas lost yesterday, but apparently I'll win if SC beats Gonzaga.

This all comes down to that SC-Gonzaga game. As someone already eliminated, I'll conceal my rooting interest and hope for a good game worthy of deciding this contest.

uconn women lose?

WHAT??

Me and my oldest nephew went to Memphis to catch the UNC/UK game. That was crazy!

Gonzaga for the win

Were you in section with mostly NC fans or UK?

Gets, I didn't go to 'Nova, only a big chunk of my money did. My daughter graduated from there in 2001. Technically 'Nova is not a Philly school. It's 3 towns west of Philly, but considered the Metro area and its located on the "Mainline", Rt 30 which runs right into Philly. Nova women cross country has won a few National titles.- 1989-94, 1998, 2009, 2010.

THAT was a great game (at least the 2nd half was - didn't see the 1st half). Consider myself lucky that I got to watch the 2nd half and OT of what turned out to be a historic game. Too bad Miss St couldn't finish off SC for the title after that.

And... I won the Women's Challenge!

UNC but the place was easily 70-30 UK fans. Possibly even 80-20

Go Heels!

Results

MEN's

JG, JL, MM, MA, NM, MB, MC

WOMEN's

MB, JG* (*used worthless auto-pick option lol)

Cool that you were there to see the eventual champs.
I saw a headline after the game that I thought was unrelated.

It said refs get death threats from UK.....I'm thinking, ok some over the top soccer fans are acting up again(from the United Kingdom)

wrong....it was from so called Kentucky fans...not just a handful of random losers either

Glad you made it out of there in one piece,Dixie.

Also..congrats to J. Geoff and Blonde for winning the pool, but in the words of Roy Williams "I don't give a sh*t about North Carolina, right now"




caught this live on tv after Kansas took yet another L in the championship game.

Oh trust me Gets, once Maye made that last shot they cleared the arena out before that 0.3 could run off the clock.....lol. It was the absolutely the most whining and griping I have ever heard in one basketball game. Then them going after the ref afterwards was even worse.

Funny you posted that video as that was his last game as head coach at Kansas....lol

As for the pick 'em I wished I would have entered because I hit 1140 on the men's and 840 in the women's so I would have won the men's. Oh well!
