                    Ridiculous. I started out 7-0 and then had a major downfall after the UTEP and Gtown game.

                      $1 = ~ $8500

                      $100 = ~ $850 000

                          If as many people played the women's bracket as they do the men's you would probably see a perfect bracket or two. The seedings for women tend to hold a little better than the mens.

                            No, a perfect bracket is never going to happen. But I tip my hat to anyone who went 16-0 yesterday and had the perfect combination of five double-digit seeds winning.

                              most those perfect brackets are people who picked randomly, sent in multitudes of entrees based on mathamatical probabilitys and 5 lucky few..they be dead soon nuff


                              I guess eventually someday someone will do it..if you make it to the elite 8 and are guaranteed millions you should bet your own cash against your picks

                                  Woman are just as tough. Yes the chalk lines are easy but the 5/12's, 8/9's, etc. are probably harder to predict then the mens.

                                  I think 3 or 4 years ago, I was perfect the first week. No shitting you. After the first 32 games I was tied with around 80 other people with perfect brackets. I got an email from either ESPN or Pontiac (I can't remember). I was jacked. I won the first 2 games the next week but then lost like the next 3 and was done. I still ended up in the top 20,000 what I thought was good.

                                  Why is everyone saying it's 64 games... It's 63 games

                                  32
                                  16
                                  8
                                  4
                                  2
                                  1
                                  = 63

                                          I went 15-1 in one of my espn brackets, unfortunately that 1 loss was Georgetown who I had in the championship game.

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                                              One of my best friends, made over 40 accounts on ESPN, a couple of years ago.

                                              One of his accounts was in the top 500, and he was so flippin' proud.

                                              But yeah, their are people trying to jack with that system.

                                                My bracket is in sorry shape (~66%) before Temple, a team I had in the Sweet 16, lost.

                                                    Looks like only 11 perfect brackets left now.

                                                      Pretty sure that's incorrect, 11 guys have 190, there has only been 19 games played so far...

                                                        ^^
                                                        I was just on there and I didn't see any 190's...my bad...must have missed them.

                                                          Would like to see at the end of the day how many are left.

                                                            I'd be very surprised if any are left to be honest. Especially if Wofford is able to hold on for the win.
