Anyone following at work and have any comments so far?
I can tell you, Xavier scared the crap out of me with that first half. I only have them going to the Elite Eight. Also, Dionte Christmas not bothering to show up for Temple sure hurts my chances of seeing that upset over MSU. 2 pts all game when he averages nearly 21 - Jesus Christmas!! (1/10 FG, 0/7 3PT, 0/1 FT, 2 pts, 3 fouls)

I was excited for a bit as I had Georgia pulling off the upset. I also had Temple so I'm now 0/2 on my upset picks ... which means there will likely be upsets later today and tomorrow that I didn't call.

Yea it's great EXCEPT it's blocked at work.
It's getting ugly out here for me. Baylor and Kent St. getting blown out while Kentucky hung tough for a while but it's all slipping away. At least I got the Pitt debacle right.

I think I might as well light my bracket on fire. I've already lost 3 of my Sweet 16 teams. Thanks USC, Kentucky, Arizona. So much for big schools from big conferences.
FWIW, let's keep it going Western Kentucky - screw some other people over who had Drake doing something. I need all the help I can get.

havok, know you can't watch it at work but watch that 3-pt shot at the end of the WKU game when you get home. Great shot and excellently set up!

I was watching on ESPN gamecast at work to follow the game. We got an early dismissal at 3 today for the holiday but I stayed just to see the end of it. What a game! I'll be waiting for the highlights.

It was a great game. I had two of my co-workers in my cube watching the end. I can only hope that some of the other games can live up to that one.

san diego... i love march madness, could you imagine a football playoff? the only drawback is the toll the violence of the game would take on the players.

Love the Madness! I've been yelling about my pick of Villanova over Clemson all day to my co-workers. My end phrase was "I have no respect for Clemson." They'd give me reason Clemson would win and I'd just come back with that line.
DOWN GOES CLEMSON!!! I love it!!

Screw IU, I'm glad it's over. I knew they would lose but I picked them anyway. That WKU game was the tits, though.
