I-Mockery Bracket Bunch

[GADZOOKS]

In honor of the new forum. I think I-Mockery should have a bracket group. I'm already running one somewhere else and it could be fun. I don't know if we could have any prizes since anyone can have a title now. Maybe I can make the winner a cool signature that they can show off to their dad.

All you need is a yahoo account. Everyone has one of those don't they?

the group ID# is 153220
the password is bape :bestthread

Hurry up, because these things get locked on Thursday.

[WhiteRat]

Entering my bracket right now.

[Esuohlim]

I submitted mine, you're all toast

[Pentegarn]

I am in and my bracket is up :)

Can't wait till thursday so we can ridicule each others picks :D

[Esuohlim]

BRACKET TIPS FOR YOUNG BENCHWARMERS: A low number means a high rank :eek

I've come across a lot of people who think otherwise, is all :(

[GADZOOKS]

My secret is I vote for which team logo/mascot can win in a fight.

[Pentegarn]

My secret is I vote for which team logo/mascot can win in a fight.

Remember the episode of Perfect Strangers where Balki did that with football picks and got every one right every week? :lol

[GADZOOKS]

I actually don't. I am ashamed that I don't, too. :(

I'm Dane Cook to Bronso Pinchot's Louis CK

[Colonel Flagg]

Thanks, Gadzooks. May the best mocker win!

[GADZOOKS]

I'm winning :lol

[WhiteRat]

I love how Pub has Winthrop in the Final Four and Mount St. Mary's knocking off UNC.

[GADZOOKS]

DONT COUNT OUT THE MOUNT

ugh, Michigan St. is playing like chumps. I KNEW I SHOULDNT OF PICKED A TEAM THAT WOULD ENROLL ESUOHLIM

[WhiteRat]

I am a genius. I picked Temple!

(Disregard post if MSU wins)

[Esuohlim]

I picked Temple too so I don't know who to root for. It's like I set it up so that either way I'll be disappointed. :(

MSU's starting to pick up steam sorry everyone!

And I've got Xavier in the final four so they better not jerk around anymore >:

[Esuohlim]

I love how Pub has Winthrop in the Final Four and Mount St. Mary's knocking off UNC.

It beats me why Pub is even remotely interested in United States college basketball in the first place.

[GADZOOKS]

My other Bracket group has one dude having Baylor in the Final Four.

[GADZOOKS]

Hahaha, publover is beating Esuohlim and White Rat as we speak

[Pentegarn]

Pub is beating everyone as we speak :P

Won't last with that Mount St. Marys pick, but still, how's that taste everyone not Pub?

To me, it tastes like a shit sandwich

[Esuohlim]

Oh whatever Pub you've got three out of four 16 seeds moving on to the next round why are you winning so far >:

ANGRY ABOTU SPORTS

[WhiteRat]

My bracket was shooting sparks earlier today but I doused them with the sweat from my saturated brow. The upsets that I had never happened, but not one of them was advancing past the second round anyway, so I think i'm okay right now.

[Pub Lover]

Calm down guys, my picks get drastically more absurd, so I'm only gonna lead for this tiny fraction of the game.

Unless everything we know about the game is wrong! :eek

Whiterat, I wanted to have Winthrop win the whole thing, but I just couldn't do it. :x

[executioneer]

i tried to look at this and it wont let me, what gives

[Pentegarn]

Belmont is holding on, my longshot upset might come through :)

[WhiteRat]

Are we using this thread to BS about the tourney now?

I'm not being a smartass, i'm just confused.

[Colonel Flagg]

Yes, I'm a homer and an idiot. Temple going to the sweet 16. What was I thinking. At least they didn't go any further, so I only lost 2 points.

[Colonel Flagg]

GO Kansas State!!!!!

[WhiteRat]

If Belmont won I would've just ripped up my bracket. I have Duke going to the National Championship. I seriously regret picking them.

[Pub Lover]

haha, my entire east is dead. Damn you Winthrop. :lol

[Colonel Flagg]

Geez, you had me scared there at the end. Belmont bows by a half a bucket. Wow, Duke may not make it to the final 2, eh?:chatter

[Pentegarn]

Are we using this thread to BS about the tourney now?

I'm not being a smartass, i'm just confused.

This is more of how it effects our brackets. Serious takes about the tourney would be better for the March Madness thread

[executioneer]

There was a problem


This is not a private group. (Error #147) ;_;

[Colonel Flagg]

A&M pulls it out; surprisingly close considering BYU didn't even score until 6:00 into the game.

10/12 so far.

[WhiteRat]

8/12 right now. Finally, Pub entered the cellar where he will stay for the duration of the Tourney.

[Pentegarn]

A&M pulls it out; surprisingly close considering BYU didn't even score until 6:00 into the game.

10/12 so far.

Nice job so far, you keep this pace up and you will spank our collective behinds.

Question is did I mean figuratively or literally :chatter

[WhiteRat]

Nice job so far, you keep this pace up and you will spank our collective behinds.

Question is did I mean figuratively or literally :chatter

Speak for yourself, perv boy:blowme

[Colonel Flagg]

So when will George Mason show up to start playing some basketball? Sheesh, there's one upset I picked that looks pretty bleak.

[Colonel Flagg]

How about "virtually"? :confused:

[WhiteRat]

So when will George Mason show up to start playing some basketball? Sheesh, there's one upset I picked that looks pretty bleak.

Yeah, I have them too. I find it interesting that so far only 1 lower seeded team has won and that was Texas A&M(9) over BYU(8). Cal State-Fullerton is playing Wisconsin tough right now though.

[Colonel Flagg]

Don't forget Kansas State! The Wildcats pounced all over the Trojans! :rock

[WhiteRat]

Yeah, I had them too but have them losing in the next round.

[GADZOOKS]

I'm doing okay here, but I'm perfect in my other bracker :cool

Willie, I took the privacy thing off, you can look at it now :(

[Esuohlim]

Damnit Arizona :(

[Pub Lover]

And I was sure they would win the whole tournament.

[Pentegarn]

So far it is pretty close. I must say running in 2 bracket competitions makes the already best sports time of the year even better :)

[Esuohlim]

Well it looks like I'm way off on all my 7-10 picks so far >:

[GADZOOKS]

I should of just carried over my bracket from my other group. My pride is on the line here!

I miss the Gators in this tournament :(

[Colonel Flagg]

1-4 so far today. I suck.

[Esuohlim]

If Drake pulls through I'll be batting 1000 today :eeksurprise

Sorry guys this isn't a baseball thread I hope I wasn't way out of line there http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons_classic/frown.gif

EDIT: Well fuck http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons_classic/mad.gif

[Colonel Flagg]

Good for you Milhouse - .750 beats .250 any day. Exciting game, though. I still suck.

[WhiteRat]

Drake killed me. I had them beating UConn and advancing to the Sweet 16. So far i'm 12 for 20, but a possible 181 points keeps me in it if my big dogs don't decided to lay down.

[WhiteRat]

BTW, I'm somehow in last place again. God damnit Pub, when are your shitty picks going to blow up your bracket?

[Pub Lover]

I'm as surprised as you. :lol

[Pentegarn]

I'm as surprised as you. :lol

Pub is like that woman in the office pool who never even heard of college basketball, yet enters the office pool nonetheless, picks based off places she visited or what mascots are the most cuddly, and somehow wins :lol

[GADZOOKS]

it doesn't count the next round failures

Don't worry, pub has secured last place

[Colonel Flagg]

DAMN YOU HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WhiteRat]

God damn't i'm now 15 for 24. If Clemson loses tonight I'm ripping up my bracket and going straight into "don't give a shit mode".

[Pentegarn]

Way to blow UConn! :fart

[Colonel Flagg]

This is why I hate the Big East. >:

[GADZOOKS]

Where was my mind when I picked South Alabama, jesus christ.

Fuck you Drake, UConn, and Gongzaga you ruined my Friday.

Edit: Sorry I sound so drunk in this post. I had alot of beer-battered shrimp for dinner. More like beer-smashed shrimp because, heh heh, im smasheeeeeeeeed"

[Pentegarn]

Looks like Vandy is about to cement my place in next to last :(

[Colonel Flagg]

Don't look now but the bottom is about to drop out. Siena over Vandy? Can you say "KABOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!"? :confused:

[Pentegarn]

Thanks for absolutely nothing Vandy.

Bracket prognostication is like romance, you swear you picked "the one" then you get your heart stepped on, swear never to get involved again, only to come right back a year later when the grief has diminished :P

[GADZOOKS]

I like how Thursday had almost no upsets while today has been nothing but upsets and personal grief. I don't remember their being a more lopsided first two days.

[Pentegarn]

If I weren't running my pool at work I would be done with this whole mess...

Who am I kidding, no I wouldn't I am that big of a degenerate for sports :lol

[Colonel Flagg]

F*** Villanova. The only team from Philly that I thought would lose in the first round, and it looks like they'll upset Clemson.

Edit: There's still a chance, Clemson is making a comeback! C'mon Tigers!

Edit: Bastards!

[WhiteRat]

There goes Clemson making it to the Elite 8. Fuck this tournament.

[Colonel Flagg]

Every single game in Tampa was an upset. WTF!

[Pentegarn]

Every single game in Tampa was an upset. WTF!

That's March Madness :lol

[Colonel Flagg]

Pub, I'm wit you. Duke, the destroyed.

[El Blanco]

I picked Duke for the Final Four. Coach K did a shit job prepping his team. This is lousy execution, nothing more.

[GADZOOKS]

I can't feel too bad for getting Duke wrong.

[WhiteRat]

I had Duke losing to UNC in the championship game. This destroys my bracket. It was fun for 2 days. :tear

[Colonel Flagg]

You could still win our group - we all pretty much suck. Except Milhouse and GZ. (Damn both of you!)

Maybe the rest of us play for third place?

[GADZOOKS]

I don't think you can say we "suck" for not being able to predict the massacare that was the Tempe division. That's like predicting 9/11.

[WhiteRat]

Uh, Bush knew about 9/11 you gullible SHEEP.

Yeah, I still can get a possible 172 points but the way my bracket has been going I expect to firmly entreched at the bottom with Pub and his possible 63 points.

[Colonel Flagg]

I agree with you, except about being the lowest point total - I still think I'll lose the worstest. But that doesn't matter - we'll still keep checking in to see how we're doing until the last weekend. That's the "madness". And it's still fun.

[Pentegarn]

You know it was a bad night for almost everyone when I had a terrible score and am still somehow in second place.

Don't worry though, it won't last. :lol

[Esuohlim]

I can't believe how close these games have been. Most of them are up in the air until literally the last second. :(

[GADZOOKS]

I can't watch the games today. Tennesee and Texas almost blew it apparently.

[Colonel Flagg]

Yeah, if Tennessee had blown it, I would be in better shape. That was one of my upsets. Fuck.

[Pentegarn]

This bracket is a mess, I am in dead last as of the end of this round at my work pool.

[WhiteRat]

I'm currently 16th out of a total pool of 20 at work. As long as I don't finish dead last I can maintain at least a shred of dignity.

[GADZOOKS]

Im tied in 5th place with 6 other people in mine. (we only have 15 total) :(

[Pentegarn]

While I am still in 2nd for now, that will certainly change considering I have no teams in one of the two brackets left to be played this round.

[WhiteRat]

http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/JerkDouglas/Untitled-4.jpg

Yikes, looks like I have a very good chance to finish last. Sorry Pub, your bracket is so good that it doesn't count anymore.

[Pub Lover]

I was thinking the same thing, I was hoping for major upsets in the recent games that might dip someone below my possible, but no luck.

[Pub Lover]

I can't find a way to see it, but it would be nice if I could see the people that picked worse than I did.

I'm in the 8th percentile, which is neatly named the Woman's Range.

[Esuohlim]

I sure am glad I didn't go with my first choice of naming it "LOSING BRACKET" :lol

[Colonel Flagg]

I suck. :(

Bring on the NBA Playoffs.

[Esuohlim]

Well I spoke too soon :(

Good luck to the rest of you see ya again next year :lol

[Pub Lover]

All the top seeds got to the semi-finals? That is awful. All the jerks that put no thought into their brackets won. >:

[Esuohlim]

Yeah well the Kansas-Davidson game still has 12 minutes left and Davidson isn't sucking enough so we'll see

[GADZOOKS]

What was one of the more exciting upset filled tournaments ends up with the most boring Final Four result.

See you guys during baseball season

[WhiteRat]

Yeah, what the hell, all four number 1 seeds make it in. Talk about boring snoring. Fuck the tourney, fuck it to hell! (just kidding i'll be back next year.)

[Colonel Flagg]

As will I. I am a glutton for punishment. :lol

[Pentegarn]

Well at least the final four should be a hell of a show to behold. Even though I have all of 1 team in it :P

[WhiteRat]

3 guys at work that picked the Final Four correctly were talking a lot of shit to the rest of us today. Even though it never happened prior to this year, I still think picking all number 1s is the cheap and lazy way to go about picking your bracket. I don't care who it is, I'm still not going to ever pick all number 1s.

[Colonel Flagg]

You can facial all those guys next year when they do the same thing and NO number ones make it to the Final Four.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

[WhiteRat]

Colonel, I like your style.

[Pentegarn]

Just tell them what I told the guy at my work that picked all the number 1s

"Way to go big gambler, you picked the 4 best teams to get to the final four! Way to take a chance tough guy!" :P

[Pentegarn]

Grats to the aptly titled Winning Bracket for being a... winning bracket.

I am impressed you got that many right in the midst of this years chaos

[Esuohlim]

SO WHAT DO I WIN >:

[ElPila666]

ME! :love

[Esuohlim]

>:

[GADZOOKS]

beer cozy

[Pentegarn]

I think you get to lord it over on us for at least 2 or 3 days :P

[WhiteRat]

Maybe I can make the winner a cool signature that they can show off to their dad.

Let's see what ya got.

[GADZOOKS]

emotiocon party squad members can't change their sig

he'll have to settle for MSPAINT that he could show to his dad.

[Esuohlim]

Oh man my dad's in for a treat :eek
