NCAA Bracket Contest??

[tilerite]

To the powers that be;
Any chance of someone putting together an NCAA b-ball contest on the forum?

If it doesn't involve exchange of dinero, or the promise of exchange of dinero, which would attract government agents envious that someone else might be running a gambling scam, go for it. :)

But first 'splain whatever might be a "bracket contest?"

[Levi the Tile Guy]

Wouldn't have the slightest clue how to configure it, but if you put one on here I'll put in some picks. Just for pride of course.

Anyone is welcome to join the one I created for the guys at work. For the last two years I have managed it BY HAND, but this year I set up a Yahoo Account. Unfortunately most of the guys who have participated do not have internet access, so it won't be a full group.

Here's the link, enter group name Nichols Tile (http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/t1?tid=255610). The password is nicholstile.

brad,

What is the group name. That link takes me to the main website and if I put in 255610 for id# it tells me it is not private, but won't let me find it in the public menu.

[Brad Denny]

I edited the above Levi. Sorry, thought it would take you there. :)

[Levi the Tile Guy]

Still no luck, it says you have to have a group id# no name.

[Brad Denny]

Thanks for helping me work it out. Group #42934.

[Levi the Tile Guy]

Getting there group id# 42394. Now incorrect password tried it with a cap N and lowercase

[Brad Denny]

Try all one word and lowercase "nicholstile". It says it is the password on the commissioner's settings page, so that has to be it. Crap, the group is #42934. We're gonna get this right.

[Levi the Tile Guy]

got it dialed in thanks

[Brad Denny]

Just to bring this to the top and clarify...

Brad
I thought it would be cool to have a contest specifically for the posters on this forum but I don't have the time or patience to create my own bracket. I was hoping one of you other fellers might be willin to give it a shot. Either way, I'll be glad to join your Yahoo contest.

Those Sonic commercieals drive me insane!!!!

[Brad Denny]

Boy, this has been some awesome basketball. I'm looking forward to some of these second round match ups. It's definitely anyone's game.

[Levi the Tile Guy]

has been some great games.:clap2:

[cx]

Thanks, Rick. I guess. :)


You gotta pick the winners of each of those sets of games correctly to win any dinero? :scratch:

And the prize is how many millions? :lol1:

[Levi the Tile Guy]

I wish it was for millions I'm 40 for 48 right now.

[tilerite]

Thanks, Rick. I guess

Always glad to help.:D

[tilerite]

Just checked the standings. Looks like Levi is kicking ass so far. I can't wait for Villanova/Duke next week. Too many Blue Devil fans down here in NC for my liking. Go Nova!!!

[tilerite]

Did anyone catch the Villanova-Pitt game? Best basketball game I have seen in my 48 years. Had Pitt as my National Chammpion in my bracket, but sooooo glad to see a Philly school going to the final four.:clap2:

[java]

AAggghhhhhhh. I was cheering for Pitt.

[tilerite]

Why??

[java]

Have been to the Univ. of Pitt a few times with some friends and chased Pitt girls back in the day.

But it does not matter anyhow because we all know Oklahoma is going all the way.

I don't know man. I've seen a few of those Pitt girls. They all have hairy faces.:rofl:

Gonna be a very balanced final four. I give UNC a very slight edge but after seeing Nova beat the hairy girl school, anything is possible.

[java]

I've been to UNC chasing girls too. Nothing wrong with the Pitt girls but I gotta put the Tar Heel chicks in my bracket.:cheers:

I loved NC and the girls.

[tilerite]

We've got some lookers down here in North Cacalacky but they aren't the brightest bulbs on the tree, if you know what I mean.
