[Kid A]

okay str'ers, in anticipation of march madness i created a pool for the STR peeps.

While the link is active, obviously the brackets are not set as of this post so please check back after selection sunday (3/16) and i believe the first rd is on 3/20 so picks must be entered before then

No entry fees just bragging rights on the board and the trails

Link and rules can be found at: (feel free to pass on to friends/family/etc.)

You'll be asked to enter the group's password before you can join. The group password is included below.

ahh, spoken like a guy who's school gets upset by a #12 seed in rd 1 j/k as I'm from the lowly, err mighty america east conference

I'm all about some money or beers on the line but logistically not seeking to be in middle of collecting cabbage.

besides you are clearly missing the point here. it's all about the smack talk

AZ sucks mad arse this year! but i'm in again with you Kid A.
Not afraid just to damn lazy as of late but let's hit up the Oaks now that we've got more daylight one of these days. I get out of work at ~5pm.

when... honestly it's been forever basketball wise and football? forever and a day ... but i'm not a huge football fan anyways.

but seriously wildcat bball hasn't been very good or even exciting to watch the past couple of years. alot of hype over the past few recruits that just fizzled... M.Shakur, please way overrated glad that he's moved on..., J.McClellan totally inconsistent. they are suppose to have a good freshman class next year, but we'll just have to wait and see. hopefully Bayless doesn't jump ship and Budinger stays [but he's got to shoot more].... and thank god Lute is coming back... i gotta hold on and believe in something.

please don't tell me you are big Dukie fanboy

[mcgrath]

of course I'm not a duke fan. I detest Duke. They booted my beloved CMU Chippewas from the dance not too long ago - remember Chris Kaman? I guess I really have no room to talk. I'm also a fan of the better known michigan state spartans.
