I gotta think long and hard about my EAGLES!!!!! before I make my picks.

I'm the exact opposite, I love the NBA but could care less about college, though watching the NCAA would be very cool. I would imagine that UNC will get to go to Greensboro as a No. 1 seed. I can't afford NBA games and I agree the talent is remarkable- but I most enjoy watching upsets- especially the teams who play the power teams and beat them. I go to University of Richmond and Virginia Commonwealth games. They're not the ACC but good basketball. I went to Greensboro in 2005- met 2 Seton Hall fans who drove all night from Orange NJ to watch then get trounced by Wichita State- first game of the sessions- we bought them beers to drown their sorrows.....and meeting a couple of hundred Wichita State fans who drove 16 hours for their games.......and during the Duke Southern U game- watched Southern University's band whip the joint into a frenzy with their playing and high stepping, while Duke's band did the "we're not worthy" moves..... I love March Madness!

I'm all about the NCAA hoops and don't care about the NBA. UNC lost to BC- I guess they're not invincible! I'm going to the NCAA First/Second Round games in Greensboro NC- possibily the best sporting event I've ever been to!!

Indianapolis Baltimore Philadelphia Arizona

Nice to see Charlottesville VA on the list- the John Paul Jones Arena has great sound and seats about 12k and it's only about 50 minutes from me. I have to give it some thought......

Nice job Conn and Van B! Good race! Regarding a playoff pool- I didn't see anything on CBS. I'll look on ESPN or Fox Sports. We could also have someone (CONN) be the pool-meister- everyone email picks to him and he keeps tracks of all the picks. Not that many games to keep track of. Keep the link to this pool- it will be available for next season. Next up is the NCAA Mens Basketball tournament!

I picked upsets in the event other didn't.

This will be exciting for the both of you!! My cousin plays in a league like this- about 90 people and big money (5.00/week)- I'll see how his league is doing.

I'll set it up once it's available.

Down your way they are!! (Geez I'm talking like Yoda...) Not up here though. I have some calm honeybees- they're laid back. Now back to football!! FWIW- I think sportsline will let me make a playoff pool after all of this is over.

If I didn't forget to pick the Thurday games- I'd be right up there! I don't listen to my own advice. Oh well- college baskeball is getting into full swing (which I love) and honeybee season starts in a 3 months.....

My wife and I are shopping for a TV- my 1988 RCA 27 inch tube doesn't die- no matter what is done to it. Not sure what to get- it can't be more than 42 inches. Is that an LCD or Plasma?

Didn't see this one.... If you miss the Thursday games- you get losses for them, but you can still make picks for the Sunday games, provided you do it at least 1 hr before kickoff. If you miss the entire week- don't get any picks in- you'll end up one less than the lowest total for the week. Noj didn't make picks for the 7th week (marked by a "+") and the lowest score was 8 so he was credited for 7 wins.

Yeah, it's kind of new. Lots of Thursday games now. You can always go back and change them if it's at least 1 hr before games begin. I make mine right away then revisit if needed....sometime I can't but at least the picks are in.

Classic Capitol Nat King Cole HRS and Anita O'Day (tie)

Send me a PM- we can discuss....

I made the pick for you since you sent the email before the game started. As administrator, I can do this. Conn- are you and everyone else ok with this? I assume everyone's honest.

I haven't listened to her Mosaic much- I have to start doing that soon.

If I picked my Eagles to win- it would have been 2 games!! I was stunned by the Eagles' win- I thought AZ would roll all over them. What's cool is that everyone has won a week at least once- nice parity!

That's a terrible coach......I assistant coach my 8 year old daughter's softball team last year and I like having all the kids play different positions during the year and see what they're comfortable with and what they like. Parents appreciated that- because I was being fair to their kids by giving everyone a chance. Natural selection will determine what kids played the "key" positions- like 1st base. I also believe that the parents of girls softball are nicer and more behaved than with boys baseball. Scary to think how one coach can scar a kid for life and drive him or her away from a game they love.

Baseball was my sport- pitcher and shortstop from Little League through Jr. College. Then played softball for awhile. Played 30+ adult baseball- pitcher and shortstop in Richmond, VA- that was a lot of fun- last year was 1999. I stopped because it wasn't fun anymore. My son is 27 so I'll be making a baseball comeback when he's eligible to play in the adult baseball league in 2010- it's now a 28+ league. I enjoy team sports- everyone has a role and you must do your job for the team to be successful on the field. I like the team concept.

Michael Bolton- THE Worst.

As the Administrator, I can fix it that he loses....he may do an O-fer one week..... Kidding of course!!

Conn can be caught- we have to pick REAL well these next 4 weeks or so. And hope he screws up a few times.
