ACC tourney

Ok, so I am out of the blog for awhile. It is the ACC weekend-and it don't matter if Duke does not do well. Everyone kinda stops everything here, this weekend-so guys-keep it up. I do have CD's burned-plan to mail tomorrow.

Kenny J -- Who's the class of the ACC this year? I know Duke hasn't had a great season. Isn't UNC the team to beat?

Paul B said...

Doesn't ACC stand for A Crappy Conference this year? When Ohio State is playing Wisconsin for the title we will prove the Big Ten is better. I don't think Illinois will even make the "Big Dance" unless they make it to the finals of the Big Ten tourney. They almost blew it against Penn State today. First the take away Chief Illiniwek and now they may be headed to the NITs. If that traitor Jon Scheyer hadn't gone to Duke and stayed in state at Illinois they would have been better.

Duke...Who? 23-1 in the ACC Tourney until last night...That's unbelievable! NC State was tough. Do you think Gerald Henderson will be throwing any more 'bows? He looked like he wanted to crawl into a hole! UCLA has to have blown a #1 seed!

Kenny J...What you got in the mail?

I'm sorry Kenny J but the only reason Duke is in the top 20 is because they are Duke.... that being said I don't think Illinois should be there either. How about we all get behibd SIU and cheer then on to a final four appearance!!!

KenJ said...

You guys are rough on Duke. Let me think, I could play at Illinois. . . .or Duke. . . .hmmmm. . . .let me think about that. How about the kid from Chicago playing at Kansas? Illinois still has lots of work to do, before getting these kids.

Who has a bright idea about how we can share our bracket picks. Just tonight, I put together the perfect sheet, and I'd like to share it with you so you will be both impressed and awed. Any suggestions?

Mild Bill said...

If you guys are up for it, I've attempted to set up a bracket for us to challenge each other. Go to the following link:

http://wiub.mayhem.sportsline.com/e
I don't know if you'll need the group name (WIU Buds) abbreviated "wiub". The password is "Dukesucks".

Give it a try and let me know if you can get in.

Kenny J...the tunes arrived this afternoon. I've been quickly perusing the files. Not too much there I've already got. I think you may turn me on to some new stuff.

You guys gonna join the sportsline bracket with me? Let's GO!

Lou Mindar said...

I'm in. The winning bracket sheet has been submitted. Even so, I would encourage the rest of you to submit yours. It will be more fun the more people I can beat.

Mild Bill said...

Don't forget to put in your prediction for total points in the final (tie-breaker)...That means you, Lou!

Lou Mindar said...

Bill -- I did the tiebreaker, although it won't matter. There will be no ties. You guys may want to include the tie breaker to see who finishes a distant second to me.

Why hasn't anyone else signed up? I need more victims!

Mild Bill said...

Like Lou said...Where you guys at? What he is incorrect about is, you will all be my victims! Come on Kenny...where's your bracket with Duke winning it all?

Paul B said...

I would love to play, but I can't ever seem to get on at that link. Any suggestions?

KenJ said...

OK boys, I am in. Let me tell you that the last time I did a pool, was 2001 when Duke won last. I had 3 of the final four correct-Duke beating Arizona in the final and the total score exact. I think they won 82-72 and I called 83-71. Watch out.

Paul B said...

Well boys, sorry I couldn't join you. I finally got through to the sportsline site, but when I went to sign up it said no such league when I tried to type in the league name and password Bill provided. I tried all sorts of upper case, lower case and it never let me join. If someone logs tonight and got in, let me know the trick.

Bode --

The web address is:

wiub.mayhem.sportsline.com/e

There is no www and the "e" at the end is not a mistake.

Once you get in, you'll have to register. It just takes a couple of minutes. Once you're registered, it will take you to the page where you have to type in your password. The password is "dukesucks" without the "".

You can do it, my man. You can log in, register, type in the password, and then submit a bracket that will be beaten mercilessly by mine.

Good luck!

Queebs -- Just so you know, I didn't miss the fact that you are now listed as Queeba. It sounds even more gay than Queens.

XOXOXO,

Lou

Paul B said...

Lou,
I get that far, but it gives me an error message saying that I wasn't invited to join the group and won't let me in. Thanks anyway

Lou Mindar said...

Bill - Didn't you invite Bodie? If not, you're a bad man. Can you still get him in? It will be fun to beat him.

Mild Bill said...

I didn't have e-mail addresses, so I invited all that post on this blog via the link.

So much for "hot" upset picks that I bit on (ODU anr ORU)... DAMN!
