My bracket looks U-G-L-Y. I've already lost one Final Four team/2 Elite Eight teams. After the first round, no less -- that's pretty bad.

Right when you log in, at the top, there should be a summary stats which includes your current record, points, ranking, etc. If you click "View Picks", you'll be able to see your correct / wrong picks and how many points each was worth. If you click the "Printable Bracket", you'll be able to see it in bracket form showing the teams you've already lost in later rounds. To see how you're doing compared to other ClutchCity people (if you don't want to wait until my daily post), you can add the people here to your Watch List. Their numbers are as follows: Major = 0 RM95 = 2 RM95's Girl = 569 Puedlfor = 578 mduke = 586 Gascon = 581, 594 Johnny Rocket = 593 Manny = 616 dylan = 672 Smokey = 715 Band Geek Mobster = 854 red = 856 MadMax = 847 Buck Turgidson = 877 SirCharlesFan = 1035 ROCKETBOOSTER = 1066 DVauthrin = 1143 Drewdog = 1196 TheFreak = 1259 wrath_of_khan = 1948
Day #3 Standings RM95 - 37 Smokey - 35 red - 34 Puedlfor - 34 wrath of khan - 34 DVauthrin - 33 RM95's Girl - 33 DrewDog - 33 mduke - 33 Gascon #1 - 32 Manny Ramirez - 31 TheFreak - 30 SirCharlesFan - 29 ROCKETBOOSTER - 28 MadMax - 28 Buck Turgidson - 27 Johnny Rocket - 26 Gascon #2 - 26 Major - 25 Band Geek Mobster - 23 Congrats to RM95 for taking the lead!
Here we go again ... Day #4 Standings. Lots of points still available for the taking! RM95 - 51 DVauthrin - 47 mduke - 47 Puedlfor - 46 SirCharlesFan - 45 red - 44 wrath of khan - 44 Gascon #1 - 44 Smokey - 43 TheFreak - 43 Buck Turgidson - 43 RM95's Girl - 41 DrewDog - 41 ROCKETBOOSTER - 40 Manny Ramirez - 39 MadMax - 38 Major - 35 Johnny Rocket - 34 Gascon #2 - 32 Band Geek Mobster - 31 RM95 held his lead by getting 10 of 16 Sweet-16's right , including 3 lower-seeds (double pts) in Mizzou, Texas, and Southern Ill. My strategy of picking lots of upsets that did not happen has not worked as of yet, and probably won't since I've already lost 4 Elite-Eight teams.
Ooooooooooops. Here we go. Day #5 rankings!! RM95 (#2)- 51 DrewDog (#1196) - 50 mduke (#586) - 50 Puedlfor (#578) - 49 SirCharlesFan (#1035) - 48 DVauthrin (#1143) - 47 RM95's Girl (#569) - 47 TheFreak (#1259) - 46 Buck Turgidson (#877) - 46 red (#856) - 44 wrath of khan (#1948) - 44 Gascon #1 (#581) - 44 Smokey (#715) - 43 ROCKETBOOSTER (#1066) - 43 Manny Ramirez (#616) - 42 MadMax (#847) - 41 Major (#0) - 38 Johnny Rocket (#593) - 34 Gascon #2 (#594) - 32 Band Geek Mobster (#854) - 31 DrewDog makes a huge push for the lead by picking Kent State to go the Championship Game (and lose to Western Kentucky )! To give you an idea of how good our CC.net league is, Drew, 1 pt behind our leader, went 15-17 in the first round, has gone 2-6 in the 3rd round of games (he's already lost all of tonight's games) and has a 24-45 overall record.
Day #6 results! RM95 (#2) - 60 mduke (#586) - 59 Puedlfor (#578) - 58 Buck Turgidson (#877) - 58 SirCharlesFan (#1035) - 57 RM95's Girl (#569) - 56 red (#856) - 53 Gascon #1 (#581) - 53 Smokey (#715) - 52 TheFreak (#1259) - 52 Manny Ramirez (#616) - 51 DrewDog (#1196) - 50 DVauthrin (#1143) - 50 wrath of khan (#1948) - 50 MadMax (#847) - 50 ROCKETBOOSTER (#1066) - 49 Major (#0) - 44 Gascon #2 (#594) - 41 Johnny Rocket (#593) - 40 Band Geek Mobster (#854) - 40 Lots of favorites won today, and lots of people got 3 picks right. Drewdog was a one-day wonder as he falls right back to the middle of the pack. mduke is the latest to try to catch RM95!
I am not doing too well in the swire one. My strategy of picking lots of 9, 10 & 11s didn't pan out well in the 1st round. I have 47 points, #2003. I think I am in good shape the rest of the way though. Next time I'll officially register with my name and such.
NOTE: We had a small scoring error last night, crediting UCLA with the win instead of Missouri on Thursday night. That will be corrected in the scores post after today's games.....
