NCAA Tourney Pick 'Em?

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing a March Madness pick 'em? Yahoo runs one, and I know some of us already do Fantasy Hockey over there (If Frank doesn't mind we could even use the PensBurgh name!). If anyone is interested I could even set it up, you'd just have to join. Let me know in the comments. This wouldn't be for money or anything, just bragging rights and something fun to do.

TB, I was thinking about doing something like this myself.

I’d love to be in a Penburgh group March Madness on Yahoo, I think it would be a lot of fun!

I’m game. I just signed up to two brackets today. A third one couldn’t hurt.

By the way – way to go in taking down first place heading into the playoffs in the hockey league. You and I can sit back and watch the first round go by. Then you can worship the ground I walk on when my team reigns supreme! mwoohahahaha

I can’t wait for next year’s FH pool Frank…

I’m in Mirtle’s B league this year, my team finished 11th out of 20 for the regular season. That’s right, a 20 team league, it’s pretty insane. Goalies are at a premium and Nabokov’s injury pretty much doomed me. But my team did come on strong, I’m hopeful to do well in the consolation playoffs.

This was the first year of the Pensburgh FH pool. Although the playoffs will dictate a winner, I still finished second out of 12, six points behind TrueBlue. In another league with a few other bloggers, I finished third out of 16. Even that was much like the Eastern Conference standings are right now. I finished third with 255 pts, but fourth through seventh was 254,251, 249 and 248. Talk about close.

Oh, I have no doubt that you will reign supreme, for about one more round. Then I will crush you when we meet in the Championship Round!

I’m in. Get the word out if you start it up. I’m always looking to have my hopes and dreams dashed to bits.

Let's go Pens!

For those interested in playing, I"m going to put together a Yahoo Group today and have the info before game time.
