I updated the OP with your name in there, Don.

I'm getting ready & will be at the meet today. If you wish to give me your 20 then, that's perfect and I'll note you as paid. If not, PayPal always works.

Selection Sunday is tonight at 6pm! So you can start making your pics as early as 6pm tonight if you so wish. You can work on your bracket as much or as little as you want between tonight, and noon Tuesday Thursday.

PS-

Diggin' the name :rofl: Not bad for a first timer! There's hope for you yet, Mario! :lol:

Sweetbmxrider through some skin in the pot as well! We're at 12 people right now, and likely looking at 14 people or so before Tuesday. When everyone is paid up, I'll post up the 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place payouts--Keep an eye out for a special announcement from the NJFBOA big-wigs, as well. :shifty: A lot of first timers taking the plunge & filling out a bracket this year. That's awesome!


A few people paid today at the meet. I've updated the 1st post to reflect the current status. The rest of you guys, start getting your money in. $20 via PayPal.

Remember, get your brackets filled out before Tuesday Thursday.

What do I do now?

Jersey Mike 03-17-2013 04:54 PM

Nothing, the Audi & I are making out with the money.

PolarBear 03-17-2013 05:12 PM

What the hell do I do? I am beginning to think this was all elaborate scheme to gain my confidence, have me invest in something I dont believe in, then when I think everything is cool, he sneaks away in the night laughing all the way to his next set of victims

sweetbmxrider 03-17-2013 05:27 PM

I think I did it. When do I pick?

Jersey Mike 03-17-2013 05:34 PM

It looks like the last of the teams are trickling in now. I believe once all 4 regions are completely released, you'll be able to make your selections & save your picks. Right now, it looks like you cant make selections just quite yet. Maybe in the next few hours!

Update: We're in business!


  1. Sign in via the group link.
  2. Click on your bracket.
  3. You should see some team names listed. Click on who you think will win that match up.
  4. Continue to do so until you've reached the championship game.
  5. Enter a final score for the championship game. That's our Tie-Breaker, if we should need one.
  6. Bit your fingernails.
  7. Rip your hair out.
  8. Shout at the television/computer screen/cell phone.
  9. Cheer when things go right.
  10. Root against WBT & Mike.
  11. Profit?

Bump: I see it's ready now! :D

Anyone have a problem with the girlfriend participating again this year? She tags along for the meets usually, but doesn't have an NJFBOA account, therefore, I'm leaving it up to you guys. Any objections to a girlfriend participating again this year? (No feelings will be hurt. Please be honest.)

Mario,
feel free to do some Googling & find out what you feel comfortable answering. All the teams' records & scores are published on the 'net. 60 each team is pretty common.

WSex 03-17-2013 06:08 PM

Jersey Mike 03-17-2013 06:12 PM

Holy shit that was quick! What are you going to do at work tomorrow then!? :rofl:




You can change it as many times as you like, until the deadline.*
*"Deadline to submit your bracket is 12:15pm EDT on Thursday, March 21."

Apparently, MyFirstZ is struggling to figure out how to join the group--But he's trying. :lol: Is a "Horses Ass Award" in order? Perhaps an autographed picture of Coolmanvette75 for whoever gets last place this year? I'll let you guys make that call :lol:

sweetbmxrider 03-18-2013 09:09 AM

Some men, just love the cross out.

Jersey Mike 03-18-2013 10:36 AM

I started making some picks, and (of course) second guessing EVERRYYYYYYTHING. Which led me into a nonsensical internet spiral.

This is from 2 years ago, but it's pretty interesting to see. In some regions, it's business as usual, but in others, it was absurd how many lower-seeds beat higher seeds. There is no formula to the madness (no pun intended).

Other years are listed here, if anyone wants to glance at 'em: http://www.cbssports.com/collegebask...ory/yearbyyear


Here's the 2011 one that I just marked up:
