If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!
Michigan is making me nervous. And Duke...come on. Really? Although Lehigh is pretty tough for the ranking they get, I'm thinking it was them who were fast to knock out KU the year following their narrow championship?
And I think Texas pretty well killed my bracket. I had them going to the Elite Eight, I believe.
Edit: Maybe it was Lehigh that almost beat them that year, and then they fell out the second round. Anyway, well played by Lehigh tonight! Have all the number 2 seeds been knocked out now? o.O

I, like most of you, did very poorly the last two days. However, 15 out of 16 of my Sweet Sixteen picks are still alive (and all of my Final Four), so I think my team will make a comeback.
More ToOers are playing this year than ever before:
bookworm
KBT
SWA
IN
TKD
Sunshine
AE

Why do all the games have to be on at the same time. Purdue KU game was crazy, Purdue really deserved to win it. But in watching that one I didn't get to watch Lehigh.
After spending three days near the back of our group, The AE Victory surged into first place! I am now tied with bookworm and KBT. Everyone in our group is within 4 games of each other, which is perfect! Next weekend will be a blast.

It shall be short lived, of course.

The one I have winning it all, fortunately.
Cincinnati won which made me very happy, even if it did mess up some of my predictions. Next game is going to be tough, we are playing Ohio State. (By the way Deshaun Thomas played my High School and we beat him)
Whoa! I just jumped into second place, despite one of my two finalists being knocked out (Marquette)...

Alas, we played our worst game of the season at the wrong time. My national title winner is out.

Syracuse lost. After going like 34 and 2 the whole season.
And now my final four are completely out. I hope Kentucky loses.
