Bracket How To - suggestions


MuskieJunkie

Recommended Posts

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?

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

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!!!!

LOL

Good Luck Guys, get into our FM pools and may the best man win.

    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
    • Sketti...  not out of a jar either!
    • Lol yeah I watched that
