Im in.

I don't know how the rest of you feel about the seeding this year, but I think the committee must have been tossing back a few "brown-pops" while they were completing the brackets this year...Az, Ks, Duke, and ILL in the West?!?! And Indiana, a 7 seed?!?! Forget about it, how did Indiana GET IN the Tournament? One final observation. I'll take SYR and the "home court" all the way to the Final Four...lol

Juulie - since we're in Portland, this means those poor kids never get to go to the park. Maybe you can show them pictures of a park.
Oh, no, they go to the park on rainy days, too. We just can't find any volunteers to take them so the paid staff do it. Kids raised in Oregon DON"T care about a little rain!
Guys you don’t get that much rain. Ever live in New Orleans with its 64 inches a year? Heck, even my new home town outside of DC gets more rain than you do.

It's not about inches but hours/days. Yes, you get 64" per year while we get about 35".

However, you get it in buckets at a time with lots of sunny days in the middle while the Pacific NW gets it as a nearly constant drizzle from late October through April or May.

As I like to say: It only rains once per year here. It starts in October and stops in May.

I can't see the picks of the other members of the group. If this is the way it is intended, then this is a really bad feature of the ESPN system.

Nevada, any member can change his/her picks until the first game tips off on Thursday. So they don't want people peeking at other people's brackets and then making changes to their own. Once the picks "lock" and no more changes can be made, you'll be able to see everybody's picks.

Yes it was for the woman. As for the men, don’t count them short. They are a good team at times but they can’t handle physical teams like the Maroons.

I believe ESPN has made an error. I think everyone is 10 pts short on their first round scores. Check your's and see.

I looked at it last night and saw that Maryland was not yet added.

The problem is that people are not getting the 10 pts of credit for picking Maryland. If you look at your bracket they are not showing up in green yet.
Someone at ESPN still can't believe that shot went in!
