Hello ladies. Look at your man, now back to me, now back at your man, now back to me. Sadly, he isn't me.

Hey, at least you aren't in 32nd

Lost 4 Sweet Sixteen teams in week one. That’s bad. And only called one 7/10 game correctly (Missou). And only two each on 4/13 and 5/12.

Thanks for the encouragement, IS...but give me a week and I'll be right there with you, sir

btw, Kenpom, which is doing really well in the brackets, has us winning 74-67 (74% chance) – that’s way more comfortable than the SDSU game.

I've been keeping this to myself

But I fear there’s an inverse correlation between comfort going into a game and satisfaction coming out of it. Hope I’m wrong.

I have a question...

Does the “PPR” column show the maximum possible points for that bracket at that point in time?
