March Madness 2024 - Hunt Talk Group

[Big Fin]

@jabber - sorry, I didn't know you had set one up. Oh well. I guess people can hedge their bets.

 

[BackofBeyond]

Top 5 from the bottom

Here we go!

 

[Caseknife]

Guess I better join this bracket too, joined @jabber already.

Join the Gluttons For Punishment. Same boat. Jabber's first then Randy had to allow us further suffering.

It's like golf (for me) I divot the hell outta the course... yet - of the 9 or 18 holes played there are a few PERFECTLY sounding iron strikes and ball positioning that has me go back another day for more punishment.

 

[Caseknife]

Kind of looks like they are connected, says my bracket is complete in both and I know I only did it with @jabber's link

 

[Derek44]

Darnit. No yahoo or google account.

I have to look at who the “owner” is to determine which group is which. Randy’s “official” bracket (#56180 group) has 69 brackets, while jabber’s “unofficial” (#16338 group) has 188 members.

I'm an old fart though for you not to have a Google nor Yahoo.... Wow! You've placed us all to shame! Haha!

 

[Devil Diver Down]

Hate to break it to you guys: y'all are playing for 2nd place.


I'm playing for a 3-way tie for 29th place.

 

[Hammsolo]

Any prizes for last place? Don't watch basketball and don't follow the madness but I figured why not give it a shot.

That means you’ll probably win!

 

[BackofBeyond]

That means you’ll probably win!

So you're saying Longwood *snicker* to win isn't a valid option?

Longwood sounds like a front runner in many situations…

 

[Jofes]

Iowa for the win...

 

[kansasdad]

I didn't know where to put this one, either here or the "snip snip" thread....

 

[Northwoods]

I Just lost one of my final four teams the very first game. I’m off to a bit of a slow start.

 

[Southern Elk]

I lost the first game. I picked Mississippi State because I went to college there. I’m so stupid.

MI State loss rate is 5 for 25 in the playoffs and they lost last year. They were statistically due a win this year. Had I not seen that little fact on the news, I would have been in the same boat as you.

 

[Jofes]

I lost on Miss State but I'm rooting against the Mormons, I think it's going to pay off

Is statistically due a legitimate thing? That seems like another way to state the gambler’s fallacy.

 

[kansasdad]

On with the MADNESSSSS!

Cougars one and done.
