I tanked in last year’s dope pool, so I welcome the chance to redeem myself. ::grabs tourney bracket and dartboard:: ---

And just to warn all of you, I’m living a charmed life this week. An ND alum living in Indianapolis, with cash in hand to buy tickets to the evening session (I won’t even have to take a day off work!), going to grad school at IUPUI (sure, they’ll get blasted by Kentucky, but what the heck), with family consisting of more ND alums and a Marquette grad coming to town. God I love March! ---

Count me in. Count me in the bottom half of the results, but count me in. ---

Watching a good game and a half this year qualifies me to make some picks. Woohoo! I am in. I do not get heartburn. ---

I wish the ESPN contest allowed you to be in more than one group. More than one group of people I know is using it to help tabulate the pool results. I’m going to stick with what I’m in, but rest assured that on the slim chance that I do well enough to be of note I will be on the boards bragging about it. ---

Sigh… Just hasn’t been the same since The General got canned… I just can’t seem to care about Big 10 B-ball, anymore. So the NCAA is pointless. [sobbing] I miss Coach Knight [/sobbing] Sincerely, former Hoosier girl ---

This has got to be the most difficult tournament to predict in at least 10 years. ---
