    I filled one out, but I'll probably just be donating. Now I need to check out who's going ahead to the next level.

    This is the first year I have actually put money in with our friends.  It is only $70 bucks so nothing too crazy.  I am sure I wont make it all that far. 

    Who are you pulling for winning everything?

    My final pick is Kansas; I'm so excited!  Last year I won our bracket, and I actually did way better than the sports guys on the news.  I should enterred into the national bracket on CBS Sports because I would've won something there, too!  I'm not expecting to win this year, but the shit talking sure is fun!

    I do a bracket every year, and last year, I came so close to actually winning some money. I ended up being 4th, and prizes started at 3rd. Just missed! Good luck all!

    I do a bracket every year and won $600 on a $20 buy in last year.

    Not looking good so far this year. I picked Clemson and ODU, oh well there's a LOT of tourney left to play.

    I have Duke all the way (like I do every year) my blood runs Duke blue!

    I think I've lost track how many brackets I have filled out:)  We do one at work where we draw the teams and then whomever has the last team standing gets a free lunch.  So one of the teams I drew was Old Dominion, oh well I still have 8 other teams left!!

    Old D broke my heart today. I had them going a lot farther than they did. Oh well....I still have some hope with the other brackets.

    i'm not working in an office so i'm not in it to win money but have filled out my bracket! so far so good, though that's usually how it pans out in the beginning. lol, butler gave me a scare though!

    @Mrs. Spring: i picked kansas too! mainly because i just couldn't bear to pick my alma mater's rival, ohio state, to win it all. it's just wrong. LOL

    ooo i have two - Ohio st. vs kansas in the final two - ohio coming out with the win.

    and this one really hurts me - for work i picked duke and kansas - kansas to win.

    i'm a UNC fan - so it took everything i had to write duke in that spot.

    Go HEEEEEEEELS!

    im 2 for 2 now with the WV win and Butler too woo hooo

    @tea: i always hate doing brackets for the single fact that i feel like i jinx my team if i put them down for a win or jinx them if i dont...its a lose lose situation.

    I picked Syracuse to go all the way with Pittsburgh, Duke and Kansas as the other top 3. I picked West Virginia and Old Dominion so I'm 50/50 for the first two games haha. Hmm just looked and saw Morehead State won, that's not good, now I'm only 33%.

    @Mrs. Spring: kentucky had me scared for a moment. definitely didn't appreciate that! i almost wish i could have stopped after the first two wins on my bracket. i would have been proud of that. i could have been all, hey! i picked them all right!

    2 out of 5 but as long as UNCA stays down I'll be 50/50 again! Morehead, Butler and Temple all killed me but fortunately I didn't have their opponents going any further than the next round so I'm fortunate on that front. Let's go Syracuse!!!

    @KatNYC2011: funny thing about that. i did a blind bracket to help with my picks this year and i somehow ended up picking louisville to win it all. when i realized that, i didn't feel comfortable with the pick so i changed it before submitting my bracket. so freaking glad i did!

    @tea: Wow... that would have been a destroyed bracket!

    I picked the Temple win, I also have them beating SDSU next round... not feeling good about that right now.
