You can have as many entries as you wish.

I'm just hoping FFB didn't blow his entire mattress stash on Project First Build...



Opening Line set at -350.

I've been unfortunately busy at work these last 2 days, so I haven't filled mine out yet, but it's okay. I plan to be significantly less focused Thursday and Friday

Yup, they get locked Thursday at 12:15pm... when the games begin. I'll be at work score-checking & attempting to stream 1 or 2 of the games if Verizon ever gets their **** together

People who make brackets but do not pay get a ban until the end of the tournament or they pay Mike. No joke.

I like that! To be fair, we'll can impliment that next year at the time of announcement.

Recently in my leagues, I've impliment a late penalty. Nothing crazy, but a few extra points tacked on if it extends X weeks passed the deadline. An additional Y points tacked on if it beyond that, etc, etc. None of which gets kept, so everyone likes the idea... except the stragglers of course

I like your idea a bit better. Perhaps we can take it a step further though? Can the members of the pool get decorating rights to the truant or banned member's profile? Think: avatar, user title, signature, post count, profile, etc.

Roughly 18 hours left before the games begin and brackets are locked in! Don't wait until last minute!

Coincidentally, I was under the weather this day last year & was able to stay home and flip through all the channels score-checking all the different games in progress. It was awesome.
Sadly, I've used up too much PTO this winter and can't justify using another Personal Day. I don't think the boss knows what he's in for tomorrow...

Nothing?



Today and tomorrow is my weekend, so I might actually pay attention to a few games - see how some of my first round upsets make out. I just locked in my bracket, and joined an ESPN bracket with a few friends.

Quick poll - do those of you who play multiple brackets keep the same bracket in different groups, or change it up? If change, is it minor or drastic?

I didn't do more than 1 bracket this year. But I used to change them mildly--The big points come from the championship game, not the earlier stuff.




Oh, I should mention I copied my bracket to the Billion Dollar challenge... I just thought I'd go through depression if it happened and I hadn't clicked a few buttons.
Chances are 1 in 9.2 Quadrillion though
