Though maybe that’s out of my continued negativity about everything out of fear that if I’m positive, it’ll produce a bad outcome. I may have us lose in the Round of 32 in the NCAAs in my bracket because of that…

I had us

losing to BYU the one year in my bracket. Got torn to shreds by my buddies for picking against my team in the first round.

I pick Syracuse to win in my bracket every year

Not that I actually think they’ll win the title every year – I don’t. I guess I naturally create a realistic scenario/path of least resistence in my bracket for them to win, which at the time doesn’t seem so unlikely.

The funny thing is, I had SU over KU in the final in ’03 and even predicted the 81-78 final score for the tie-breaker. But I never submit my bracket because the pool my buddy ran that year was a steep $40 per entry (seriously who pays 40 bucks for that?). I easily would have won over $1000.

I do the same thing

and started putting money on it in ’03. I only won $80, but I will always pick SU to win it all.

I went with the revenge bracket

USF over Depaul
St. John’s over UConn
Seton Hall over Providence
Cincinnati over Rutgers

Geogetown over USF
Marquette over St. John’s
Seton Hall over Notre Dame
Louisville over Cincinnati

Syracuse over Georgetown
Marquette over Villanova
Pittsburgh over Seton Hall
West Virginia over Louisville

Syracuse over Marquette
West Virginia over Pittsburgh

West Virginia over Syracuse

-I went like this because it’s a real bracket for money. I don’t pick Syracuse because everyone else will pick them(since it’s based from my dad’s work in Syracuse). I still want them to win, but you can’t win money by picking them unless you get a perfect bracket.

I like your style Mort

I’d like to get another shot at L’Ville. 3rd time is death in college hoops.
But I also want to end all the talk about Pitino knowing Boehim and knowing his moves.
