2013 March Madness Tournament

TheKing welcomes you all to the chance to once again get schooled at March Madness. If you would like to join my league, send me a private message and I will give you the information for my yahoo tournament.

Got the email! I will be signing up!

I'm in

Liberty the whole way!!!

They are so gonna get creamed! 15 - 20 record and they're in the tournament??? Of the teams that are in it so far, I like Creighton's chances the best.

I dont know enough about the teams and brackets to join a league but I'll be watching the tournament once it starts. exciting stuff!

And you're the kind of person that could join a pool and win the whole thing.

Morons like me who study up on the teams and the matchups never win these things. I think you should join our pool and just make your picks.

Liberty the whole way!!!

Way back in 1994 I attended the first round games at the Capital Center. Liberty played with UNC for most of the game only falling apart at the end. Man I hated the Tar Heels in those days. Was so awesome when they got knocked out by Boston College the next game. They used to show that one on ESPN Classic when they did Boston weekends. But I always respected Liberty basketball for the game they gave UNC that day.

Every sports fan should get to go to one round of the tournament. For all it's big money corruption and what not, it is still something to behold live. I've to this day never heard a crowd react like they did when Bobby Knight took the floor. And the scene outside the Cap Center was just as insane.

Watch out for Florida Gulf Coast. They beat Miami earlier in the year. And Belmont always seems to be dangerous in busting those brackets.

Probably the only sports event that I truly get excited and can still muster some enthusiasm for.

I never understood how those fantasy leagues work years ago I did a baseball one for 2 seasons and a football for 1 season the football one i did nothing to and i ended up with the 2nd best record in the league. Ill keep my mouth shut bout March madness though....

its because those of us who follow the sport cannot stop making changes or letting ourselves believe in upsets.

Hell, I'll give it a go. Will send you a PM shortly. Haven't filled out a bracket since I came to Aus... I used to do one every year.

cool!! It is fun!

Made my first picks but they might ( and probably will change). Tough field this year; there really aren't a bunch of dominant teams.

i am still thinking mine over.

Watch out for SLU...

there a ton of choices this time around. I dont see a dominant team out there so picking will be interesting this year.

I thought this was interesting:

Saw that on deadspin. Best Buy should corporate partner up with the schools and have the teams all watch at their local Best Buy. One of my favorite little things about the selection show is the set-up each place has for showing the reactions. I love the player lounge ones the best. Or the school dining hall. No idea what the Georgetown was this year with them sitting around conference tables like they were at a meeting or something.

St. Louis is gonna be a tough out this year. They looked real impressive against VCU.

I'm also excited for the NIT too. Actually those brackets almost seem more interesting from a match-up stand point.

Wow, Kentucky got bounced in the first round of the NIT by Robert Morris.

I like the way the first paragraph ends:

there was an article??

C'mon Gonzaga! Geez every time I pick them to go a ways in the tournament they struggle.

Too close! Zags won.
Now I'm watching the Oregon/OK St game because I picked OR as one of my upsets in our pool. Go Ducks!

And the Ducks won!
