ESPN Men's Tournament Challenge

[BktBallRef]

The ESPN Men's Tournament Challenge is one of many NCAA Tournament Contests available on the Internet. Many of us here have filled out our brackets, played for the past 3 years and had a lot of fun, even though I personally sucked last year.

If you're interested in playing, just click on the link below and sign up. Then, click on "join group." I have setup a group, appropriately named "3 Blind Mice" It's a private group which requires a password. The password is "referee," all in lower case letters. If you would use your Official's Forum username, it will make it easier to recognize everyone.

You'll be able to fill out your bracket beginning Sunday night, 1 hour after the Selection Show. You can change your bracket until around noon on Thursday. Then, you're locked in for good!

So sign up now! The group is limited to the first 50 people who sign up!

PS - If you've played before and can remember your member name, all you have to do is join the group.

PPS - Can one of you moderators pin this to the top of the forum?

Well, I joined.

And I'm going to cherish the fact that right now, I'm ranked #1.

Thanks, Tony.

HEY! So am I!

What kind of racket are you running here, BktBallRef??

[Barry C. Morris]

I'm in. You guys are going to kill me but hey, I'm a ref, I'm used to public taunting.

Say what?

I'm in, but for some reason it did not accept the screen name I wanted, but allowed to join the group with my last name. BTW, my last name is Muffin, and my first name is Stud.

So that's why it wouldn't let me sign up with my real name - you stole it!! Anyway, I'm in - as Millay Entry 1 - pretty clever for a Mariners fan,huh???

[/B][/QUOTE]Not very often do you see the words "pretty clever" in the same sentence as "Mariner's fan".

Or in the same paragraph....

Or on the same page....

Or in the same book....

Or in....

Hey now...if we hadn't given up 8 homeruns already this training camp, I'd say them was fighting words, JR... as for right now, well, the Countdown to Collapse, 2004 Version, has officially started!!!

I'm in, but by the time I figured it out, I was already entered as Wells Entry 1 rather than snaqwells. <>
I'm not even a Yankees fan, so I don't have any excuse for my brain lapse.

You can go back into settings and change your entry name.

Gee, that wasn't so hard. Thanks. I haven't done a bracket in a few years, so we'll see how quickly the dust shakes off.

[Daryl H. Long]

The Preacher is in also. I can get involved because official rules said it was "strictly for entertainment purposes". (For verification see Rule 13, line 1 of Official Rules to contest).

Snaqwells: seeing how quickly the dust shakes off you is immaterial. You better hope I don't have to "shake off the dust of my feet" (Matthew 10:14) because you all do not listen to me. The consequenses are listed in Matthew 10:15.

Hint: The worse judgement may be everyone in group receiving weekly sermons from me... IF I do not win.

Heed this warning on Sunday when you begin to fill out your brackets.......

You must choose, but choose wisely!

The defending champ is in. The reign of the SuperFunky HowlerMonkey will continue, while the rest of you should email "Ask The Referee" for some tips.
