Oh great. Sock entries.

I see your point on caps. But ESPN might not.
You said "One entry each (or per sock), in case some prize comes along, and we need to keep it fair."

Not that I'm N. Case or whatever.

True. I meant primary sock. In other words, Penske doesn't get 412 entries.

Oh. I didn't read it that way, and was kinda surprised people got multiple entries for their socks.

So is it an advantage or disadvantage for BC to be playing their first game on St. Patrick's day?

At least it's in the afternoon.

It's an advantage for the bars in Boston. Those who didn't call in sick today, will be coming down with 'something' this afternoon so they can squeeze into a bar to watch the game.

ETA - no idea who the capitalized N. Case is. I am not case. I mean, why would I capitalize notcasesensitive? Does not compute.

EFTA - N. Case is "Nut Case". As in Nut Case, Sensitive. I presume. Nuts!!
You mean you didn't pick Ohio to win it all? I would pay money to see the UAB/Gonzaga/Ohio/Cincinatti Final Four.

2 of my Sweet 16 picks are already out. This is not looking good.

They really suck. Didn't they have this problem last year too? How hard is it to make sure your servers are good for the amount of traffic you are GUARANTEED you will have during the tournament? Don't run fucking tournaments if you can't handle the traffic.
