tennis balls' March Madness Contest

**tennis_balls** · 12th March 2007, 01:37 PM

I'm not sure there are enough college hoops fans here, but if 9 more people sign up to my "league" at Bodog's March Madness contest, then they will put up $20 prize to the winner.

no deposit necessary, (though you do need an account there to play) and you have to fill out your bracket by noon Tuesday EST.

just look for the Bracket Buster Contest

my league's name is tennis_balls

league ID #16535

I hope nobody will see this as spam. I'm just doing it for fun and CM Hoops bragging rights. (and to lure johnsteed back to the stable)

I gain nothing other than the $20 when I kick major buttocks and win the league.

There are bigger prizes if you are an amazing games picker.

It is! Mike wins the prize, a keg of ale!

I'm in for funsies and hope there'll be 10 of us or more in the end.

Huge caveat: my knowledge of c-hoops would fit in a thimble so I'll just back the biggest fav in every game

Heia Swede, Ale is great- but: do you remember the famous Tuborg porter?
I d prefer that.
maybe we meet in Kiel some day and have some of those ...

ok......their bracket is working now.......when you make it to the end you have to put a number in the tiebreaker box......i put in "130" (that's the total score for both teams in final game i assume?)

i don't know that much on college hoops. i did the contest at ESPN which was much easier as they have a snippet describing each team as you pick.
