Ncaa

Is anybody concerned about the wagering questionnaire that asks about participating in pools?
Does it not matter if there's no money involved?
Just wondering....

Is this a serious question? Are you actually asking if anybody gets worried about betting zero dollars?

I think hes asking if Ncaa cares, if they are more looking into you if you partcipate in pools, even without money. I mean, iff Ncaa ddnt care, why ask?

editted to correct typing.

I get that. My question remains. Do you honestly think anybody (NCAA included) worries about betting zero dollars?!?!

Is anybody else having trouble logging in to the game site? I've been trying for 2 days and it always times out after I put in my password.

I had trouble logging in initially as well - at first it wouldn't accept my old login, then it looked like it did accept it, but it never showed the "Enter Bracket" button. I finally re-registered, and everything came up.

Either the site's too busy, or it's trying to eliminate some of the good competition...

No problems on my end.

Not for me. It gives me a "timed out" message, not a security message. Plus, this is the same account that I use for their football fantasy games.

YU.P. Half a cookie won't do either - you need a whole cookie saved on your computer.

You bet zero dollars but you may win big prizes and you still care about your bracket for bragging rights. Also, that may give you a rooting interest for or against teams you will see during the season.
I know tournament officials aren't allowed to fill out brackets money or not.

On a side note...

I've noticed that ESPN's pool now allows you to enter 10 entries. In the past, they've only allowed 5 entries.
