2014 / 15 format proposal
Season broken into four quarters, each 5 or 6 weeks long.
Each quarter yields one Champion who earns a top-four seat at final table. (The four “winners” will be seeded by their season-long totals for the finals.)
Final table “wild card” seats 5 thru 8 are determined by season long +/- totals. (If someone wins more than one quarter, the number of wild card seats would be increased.)
Seats 9 and 10 are up for grabs via the usual pre-final table among the also-rans, eligible part-timers, dumpster divers, cheap women etc.
The three breaks between the quarters would allow for some tournament style events (off the scoring chart) to give us some variety while we freeze our asses off in the garage.
I haven’t looked too deeply at a calendar, but if we start in October this would wrap up by about the time we all get sick of each other. Again.
Just thinking here. Anybody got anything to say?

NCAA Bracket Standings – Final
No brackets were found.
ESPN Bracket Show with Payton Manning
Commander in Chief
President Obama has a 14-2 record on opening day giving him a solid lead in our pool. If your name starts with “T”, you’re tied for second place with a 12-4 record. Obama made good on two #12 seed long shots. Harvard (his alma mater) took it to Cinci and North Dakota State upsetting Oklahoma.
The Positive Effects of Hatred
Geno’s lifetime hatred of all things Ohio State paid the bills. 11th seeded Dayton took it 6th seeded Ohio State. Geno jumped to a 2-0 lead in our brackets. Everyone else is 1-1 with Wisconsin cruising to an easy win.

The Big Ten is well represented with 4 teams that have a real shot at the Sweet 16. Nebraska and Baylor were Big 12 foes but that really won’t be a factor,they haven’t seen each other in 4 seasons. Iowa is in the senseless, laughable, ludicrous, half-witted, meaningless and mindless, inane, half-baked, simpleminded, pointless, brainless, dumb, irrelevant, imbecilic, nonsensical, dopey, trivial, witless, foolish, moronic, unintelligent “First Four” play-in round.

Are we playing Wed, March 5th?
At last, a week that doesn’t go on my permanent record.
Tourney Matters
Big event is just days away. Woot.
Do we have start times set for Saturday? A final standings w/ eligibility status hasn’t shown up but I assume we’ll have enough players to need the play-in phase. If we don’t we could stat earlier and perhaps finish before midnight.
Most importantly, who is bringing what to eat? I will deal up some hummus and babagatoohardtospell for all day dipping options unless there is a ground-swell for something warm from the crock pot.
