    If Zion Williamson can successfully return from his injury, Duke will destroy all of you!!

    Vols, B*tch.

    (To be clear, I don't mean to call you a name. It's just a message board fan saying we have when we're pumped up and after beating Kentucky for the second time this year I"m pumped the eff up :) ).

    All good! I knew what you meant. :bolian:

    That said, no way! Duke is a monster team this year.

    Only 3 of us this year? Bummer.

    This is one of my favorite sporting events. How can you not love March Madness?

    :shrug:

    Maybe we'll get more people once the bracket is out.

    We have our bracket!

    Three ACC teams are #1 seeds! That's only ever happened once before.

    Plus, we have a potential set-up for a Duke/UNC championship game!

    Game on! Choose wisely. Or wildly. Whichever works best for you.

    Well, I think I went a little funny in the head and did a silly thing...

    You'll see when the brackets are revealed. :lol:

    The stories that trophy could tell would rival the Stanley Cup.

    Do I have to join the entire Yahoo fantasy site to get on, or am I missing something? Every time I try to join, it won't let me unless I try to get a Yahoo email (even though the way it's worded doesn't make it sound required). When I did go to do that, it wants my mobile phone number. I'm not really keen on doing that.

    I'm sitting here with the winning brackets, and I wouldn't mind getting in.

    I'm not sure how it works, as it always identifies my yahoo account, even when I sign out.

    I didn't think you had to have a Yahoo account to play, but...

    I’ll fill out a bracket. But I did not follow college basketball this year so my picks will be mostly based on random choice or things I gleaned from other people talking about it.

    I doubt any of our brackets are better than random chance.

    :lol:

    Random chance often ends up being the winner!

    You do have to join Yahoo.

    I actually tried to do research this year, but I still randomized most of it.

    Considering how well I'm doing with the First Four (I'm 0-3 so far), it seems my research has meant shit. :lol:

    I just mostly picked the favorites but sprinkled in a few upsets that I randomly heard some analyst talk about at some point.

    So my bracket is probably equally good as the experts. :)

    Last call for brackets! It's a lock in four hours.

    And...I've already lost a game.

    Stupid Louisville. Luckily I didn't have them going any further.
