Crimson Red Sports

I am thinking about doing a bracket pick challenge thingamajigger..anybody interested?

Well I know most of yall are boycotting it, but here its a yahoo sports league titled crimsonredsports and the password is bigal

I'm not sure the guy who loses his keys in knoxville is the guy to run the tourney contest?

haha..well yahoo is running it..we are safe.

#

Thanks for setting this up chief.  +5 e-creds

#+

Thanks. Group ID is 98455 if yall need it.

What is the group ID #

7

I'm in.

Edited: that link was no good.

+10 E-Cred to the winner

In. I don't see many upsets this year, but I have been wrong before  ;D

I tried your link and it told me I wasn't a member of the group. I tried to sign up for the group and it said it was not a private group. I can't win either way.

 ???

Glad to see ya'll can pickem. I hope you all the best of luck. RTR!

You have to use the group ID number, not the name.

Anybody having difficulties?

Yesterday it wouldnt save my bracket twice.  I need to try again.

I wasn't able to get in.  It gave me the same error message about not belonging to the group.

That's because the link I posted is no good.

Here is the official invitation link from yahoo sports:  http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/t1/register/joinprivategroup_assign_team?GID=98455&P=bigal (http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/t1/register/joinprivategroup_assign_team?GID=98455&P=bigal)

Thanks chief.  It looks like you need a yahoo account.  I might create one later.

Well Lordy I am in now. RTR!

11. Ricky 9

I got 9 and that is more than I thought. lol, RTR!

Wow, I didn't think I had gotten that many. With Mason winning, that helped me.

Crap! I thought I had picked Mason in the Yahoo bracket. I know I did on my home copy. That's what I get for not double checking.

After the first 32 games

Very close.

Hey I am a strong person I can see, I am holding up the Toteum Pole. RTR!

Even closer after the UK game.  Bamad had WV I guess.  We're all within 2 points now, which is just 1 second round game. 

Yeaaaaaaa,,I had Kentucky. I got one right but Fla. is loosing. RTR!

Still very close

Not bad when #1 and #11 are separated by only 7 pts.

Pretty good pickins. Well I am next to the bottom with a bunch of folks, of course I needed some help holdin the bottom of this totem pole up. LOL. RTR!

Well, Duke killed me, but I was tied for first briefly.  Should have taken a screenshot.  Here are the standings after 52 games

1. Taz                       34 of 52    49 pts
2. Navychief               34 of 52    48

2. Che Boludo             35 of 52    48

Very close at the top.

I was having an out of body experience there for a while. Now reality has set in. Thanks for letting me have the opportunity to compete. I am just going to be hungrier next year. >:( :(

I am a member of two group brackets and came up with the same final four in each:

UNC
SDSU
Purdue
UF

With CrimsonRedSports I had SDSU and UF in the finals with UF winning, so I still have a shot at the winner, but SDSU certainly hurt my chances of gaining more points.

But, I had SDSU winning in my other bracket, so I guess my chances here are still much better than with the other.

Well I just have the sux this year.  >:(

:what:

 ??? I am tied for 3rd? I am  :rofl: :rofl: it is so much fun while I can be here. Yippity Dippity Dog. RTR!

No Ricky, you're tied for second.  :o  :D :dance:

Interesting, 49 points is also leading the group (small - 8 people) that I'm in.  Duke was my champion pick, so I'm screwed.  I really liked the result of the first two games last night; I had both Florida and UConn advancing to the E8. 

Duke, Louisville, and Purdue have done me in.

Louisville didnt hurt me, duke was champion and I had purdue in the elite 8.

I still have a chance to have 5 of the elite 8 and 3 of the final 4.  But as close as ours is, whoever picked the champion will probably win.

You and I are hangin' in there lol

After 56 games.

1. ssmith                36 of 56    60 pts    100 possible pts

3. Che Boludo          37 of 56    56          120
3. Navy Chief           36 of 56    56           72
6. Bamad                37 of 56    55          71
6. spike80DF           36 of 56     55          119
8. rammerjammer     35 of 56     50          106
9. Marshal Dillon       33 of 56    49          49

10. cbbama             33 of 56    47           55

Very close.  I think someone who picks the winner will win (I had Duke).

I guess I am the only one that picked kentucky?

Ohio St. threw a monkey wrench in my bracket last night  >:(

Well Duke lost it all for me. I had them to win out. RTR!

Is there any chance we can redo our brackets? :pray:

Did the standings disappear or is it just me?

Looks like cbbama is the only one who scored any points yesterday.

I looked horrible in my picks. RTR!

YAY!!!! I WON THIS BRACKET AND DWAYNES PAY BRACKET!!!!  I WOULD LIKE TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR PARTICIPATING!

Final Results:


1) Navy Chief
2) #winning
3) Taz
4) Crimson Red Sports
5) Che Bulodo

Tried to post full list, but it comes our funny.

Shoot I finished so low I would had to jump up to kiss a snakes belly in the contest. lol, RTR!

Congrats.  I guess UConn won it for you?

Kentucky won it for me.   #+

good call.

I gave navychief +10 for the victory.  I was going to give e-cred for 2nd and 3rd but I don't recognize the names.

I gave TAZ +3 for 3rd place.

What kind of bracket pickers are you people? The final four hasn't been played? (Mine are also dead. )

I wondered about that.  Should I hold off on the e-creds?

I was 3rd

Yep, I gave you +3.  But who was second?

I don't reckon I was 3rd, I think I am still holding up the totem pole from the bottom. It sure is heavy. lol, RTR!

General

OK, +5 for second.

 :think: hey SC what dfo you get for holding up the totem pole?  :D, ain't this fun. RTR!

Nada.  But I do give you +1 just because I like you.  ;)

LOL,,thank you coach. This is why this site will be a big time site sometime, I really feel better than Facebook. You can get all your knowledge here and have good friendships at the same time. RTR!

I need a scapegoat for why I picked so bad this year. I think I will blame TideSprotz. If they wouldn't have gone all communist/facist/socialist/linguist/sexist on me, then I wouldn't have lost my mojo and would have had Butler, VCU, KY, and UCONN in the Final Four. I TRULY believe this.  ???
