Yeah, I had them in my Final Four, so thanks for the crotch kick, Sparty!
My West is perfect. My East is almost perfect, got one wrong but had the winner losing in the round of 32 to UNC. My South is pretty beat up, but my final four in that bracket is still intact except for California. I meant to switch that when I heard about the broken hand but couldn't get to a computer in time. My Midwest is demolished. I still have 3 of my final four in the Midwest, but my FF representative in MSU is gone. Ouch.

I lost MSU and WV in my final four. I'll have to enjoy whatever upsets I might have picked.
Life is good!

QFE
Why am I the only one who has 2 brackets entered in the CTN bracket challenge? Everybody, go put in a second bracket!

I think I just spent 3 minutes filling out the 2 brackets - it's all scientific, of course. I went with historically random picks on the 2nd bracket and changed a few - couldn't see Gonzaga winning it all.

Yes! It's easy-peasy to fill out multiple brackets. It will be fun to see whether our randomly picked brackets do better than the ones we thought about and agonized over.

Grrr.....the site is down and I can't create my bracket before tip off.

I would pick Duke, though!

Who agonizes? Just click and move on - I probably would do better if I actually agonized.

Thousands of fans who waited until the final minutes to fill out their brackets on CBSSports.com were denied their picks.
…The CBS site crashed around 11 a.m. EDT and stayed down for about two hours, according to Downdetector, a service that tracks digital outages.
Considering the tipoff for the first game was at 12:15 p.m., the timing could not have been worse for 11th-hour bracket makers and just-in-time tweakers.
…CBS Sports didn’t exactly man up but said “service was down due to overwhelming demand.”
You bastards!!!!

Had I been able to get my bracket in, it would be in total shambles now. (Except for the eventual champion.)
