I think that the 5 mil thing is actually legit, but I think you have to get every single pick out of the entire tournament right. I don't even know if anyones ever won it.

Come on everyone! 50K is currently in the pot. Sign up now! An extra 5,000 FF points is added to the pot for every person who signs up. You have about 36 more hours to make your picks!

I have my picks locked in now. And for the second time I must state that I know nothing about College Basketball and have spent a total of 1 hour researching.

If 5 more people join in before it starts, I'll throw in an extra 100K on top of what bayouboy has already pledged. It does have to be a member of the forums and no dual accounts please!

Cmon people, you got 1 more day to join!!
That extra 100k would be a nice addition to the pot, so we need 5 more people. Even if you don't know anything about basketball, it's not like you have anything to lose.

I am totally winning that $5mil. Waylon demands it. For the record I will give bayouboy 5k if I win the 5mil since I would have never filled out the brackets and signed up if not for the FF contest.

Look at the bright side. You saved the rest of us from potentially coming in last.

Good job, Joe.
I thought I was the only one w/Carolina...till I saw Gygax's crappy picks.
Wow, Duke .... so close for Belmont.

I'm still trying to figure out why I didn't pick Mich. St. Oh well, I still plan on winning.

That's cool man. This is what's great about March Madness (unless you're a Drake student, alum or fan).
I didn't get to see the game - at work now. I'll check out the highlights later but it's not the same as going through the drama....right Duke fans? Hah.
