MuskieJunkie Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Here's my deal, I don't know squat about B-Ball and especially college hoops. But I like watching the tourney games and getting in on brackets. Usually I read an article or 2 go off that and fill in some random winners on my bracket, this never works. Does anyone have any suggestions on a better way to do some research? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braves57 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 what has worked for me is start out by filling out ALL the favorites. Now research online and pick a few upsets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe_stack20 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Its really just a dump shoot....."Bracketology" means nothing to me....i go mostly with ranking...and throw in a couple of upsets with lower ranked teams that have been playing well lastely...thats as far in depth as i get with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach1310 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Stick with the favorites. People love to talk about the upset they picked, but usually they get a bunch wrong because they go upset crazy. Stick to the favorites mix in a few upsets, but don't go hog wild with them. To win a pool you usually need 4 of 4 final four teams(unless something like last years George Mason happens) and the winner right. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windy City Walleye Hunter Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Sure fire way for picking all the games.Step 1 Take a dollar bill and go to the store and buy exactly 75 cents worth of hard salami.Step 2 Bring the hard salami home with you in a clear plastic bag, making sure to put the remaining quarter you get back from the cashier in your left front pocket. Note: Be sure to put the quarter into your left front pocket but be sure to do it with your right hand only, remember, your right hand only.Step 3 Once at home, open a beverage of your choice but be sure it is in a can, bottles will not work, it has been proven by many scientists.Step 4 Consume the 75 cents worth of hard salami, eating each slice with alternating hands, right then left then right until it is gone.Step 5 Very important step. You must consume one can of the beverage of your choice with every 5 slices of hard salami and more importantly you must drink the beverage with the opposite hand that you are eating the hard salami with.Step 6 After consuming all the hard salami and accompanying beverage of choice, remove the quarter from your left front pocket but this time be sure to remove it with your left hand, not your right.Step 7 Start picking your teams by flipping the freakin quarter and calling heads or tails.You will do just as good this way as all the other ways and at least you will have a good buzz on and will have eaten dinner!!!!LOLGood Luck Guys, get into our FM pools and may the best man win.Windy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
