I was surfing around ESPN and I found that contest we did last year. Seeing how no one has set anything up yet, I thought I'd show some initiative and create the group.

Like last year, the group is called "3 Blind Mice" The password is "whackenator"

http://games.espn.go.com/tcmen/frontpage

Hopefully this will get the same great response as last year.

Good Luck!!

I'm in as well.

I'm also in charge of our office pool (usually 12-15 entries total). Now this brings up the question - does everyone use the same picks no matter what pool they're in, or do they pick differently for each pool entry?

I'm in. I look forward to filling my annual role as the world's worst prognosticator. It's my way of making others feel better about themselves.

Do you buy more than one lottery ticket with the same numbers??

Edit:

I think I misunderstood your question, looking it over it makes more sense now.

Here's a better answer:

It all depends on how sure you are with your picks. If you're certain they are right, then why not use them in every pool you enter.

I think you've hit on something there. Actually, there are MANY people who would swear I have the same chance either way (lottery vs NCAA picks).

We've got 22 so far. I'd like to see the final number of participants over 100, so lets sign up and see how badly we can predict the NCAA Tournament
