i have a bracket for every possible outcome . . . that way I am guaranteed to have one that is completely right

3/16/2007 11:23:44 AM

i hate when i ask people who they have winning

and they reply with "WELL MY ESPN BRACKET IS blah blah blah.."

3/16/2007 11:25:37 AM

Oh wow, I was about to make this thread 10 minutes ago.

I am like

What the fuck is the point if you can choose among 3-5 brackets and tell people that is how well you did?

I picked one, I'm sticking to it.

Fuck all the other noise..

3/16/2007 11:27:29 AM

I have a bunch but they are all the same.

3/16/2007 11:28:20 AM

then you suck

3/16/2007 11:28:46 AM

i filled out the yahoo bracket, then a few days later filled out the espn. Guess I didn't match them up

3/16/2007 11:32:46 AM

a guy in my league filled out 2 separate brackets with two different email addresses

he's currently tied with himself for 3rd place.


chear

3/16/2007 11:36:49 AM

^^ i did the same, i didn't think it was a big deal.

I've got multiple brackets, but ^^THAT is gay as hell

3/16/2007 11:37:41 AM

it's not....if you care how many brackets people have......


you are a sad, sad woman.

3/16/2007 11:38:09 AM

sorry you're so poor.

3/16/2007 11:38:26 AM

if you have all #1 and #2 seeds in the final four and elite 8

you are a woman

3/16/2007 11:38:38 AM

I picked one bracket and I'm not afraid to lose....as you can tell by me picking like 7 upsets for yesterday.

3/16/2007 11:38:50 AM

the reason I don't do it is because I want to pick one team and cheer for them to win...I've done multiple brackets before that had a few things different and then I just always end up being torn between who I want to win certain games

3/16/2007 11:39:10 AM

if you dont even fill out one bracket

you are a woman

3/16/2007 11:52:17 AM

theyve been bitching about this on mike and mike for weeks now.

greeny is a proponent of one bracket only
golic likes to have a ton of brackets

its tiring hearing them moan as i get ready for work every day

3/16/2007 11:55:38 AM

having multiple brackets allows me to make $

your theory is wrong because most hedge fund managers are men, not women

so fuck off

3/16/2007 11:58:29 AM

yeah, I just don't see why it matters.....

3/16/2007 11:58:47 AM

also if you have the same picks in two different pools...is that "multiple brackets"

i mean shit i think its safe to say that Ernie is a woman

now this is a womans bracket right here

3/16/2007 12:22:06 PM

it's the equivalent of:

bill: who do you got winning the super bowl?

bob: indy and/or chicago

3/16/2007 1:22:44 PM

If NC State is playing I always fill out a bracket with us winning, and another with more logical choices.

3/16/2007 1:24:20 PM

^yeah, that - same thing for me

I did that one year and actually came close to winning the pool. My other picks were on point.

3/16/2007 1:26:00 PM

i always have more than one bracket, but as far as bragging rights go, i only use one. Only one of em, the one I enter into the main pool with all of my friends, is the "official" one. The others are just for the chance to win money on espn or whatever, but in conversation I never bring em up. so for people who respond "WELL MY ESPN BRACKET IS blah blah blah.." yes, you are a woman.

3/16/2007 1:29:00 PM

when i fill out multiple brackets, my mood changes, and i don't bother keeping it consistant with previous brackets. it's all about how i feel in the moment!

3/16/2007 1:35:51 PM

if you fill out multiple brackets to hedge your bets, then thats ok.


but you better not get on here bragging about how you are an awesome picker because on 1 of your 5 brackets you picked VCU to win.

3/16/2007 1:40:26 PM

^agreed

3/16/2007 1:41:36 PM

my final four is identical in both my brackets

i had duke beating pitt and losing to ucla in both brackets

but if i happen to have marquette winning the opening game in one bracket and michigan state in the other...but i have UNC winning the 2nd round matchup in both brackets...its not trying to be able to brag...its just not remember who I had UNC beating in the 2nd round...THOSE are the inconsistencies i have with my brackets...oh no i swapped a couple 7/10 seed picks by accident

3/16/2007 1:42:51 PM

i fully support this thread

3/16/2007 1:45:08 PM

i usually fill out one bracket with my personal choices (the one that's in the tww group on espn), then i have others that are figured out by some (educated) random mathematical method. this time i used the pomeroy rating system to calculate winning percentages. i know it's dorky. but i like to see if one of my personally chosen one is better than my four mathematical ones.

[Edited on March 16, 2007 at 1:50 PM. Reason : but the personal choice one is "my bracket" the stats one is just interesting]

so far my personal one is doing the best.

[Edited on March 16, 2007 at 1:50 PM. Reason : .]

3/16/2007 1:49:40 PM

I only have two brackets when NC State is playing.

One bracket with State going to the elite 8 or final four...and the other with them losing in the 2nd round or sweet 16.

bingo....I fill out several brackets for several different pools....for the most part, they're the same, but I don't carry my "official bracket" everywhere I go, so I know for sure some of the 1st rounders are not the same on each.

3/16/2007 2:06:55 PM

i fill out two, and i'm a woman.
one for the real thing and what i think will happen, and another for what i wish would happen...like carolina going out in the first round.

I GET REALLY BOTHERED WHEN PEOPLE FILL OUT MORE THAN ONE BRACKET

3/16/2007 2:52:52 PM

I'M ALSO DISGUSTED WHEN PEOPLE BET ON MORE THAN ONE TEAM PER SEASON

YOU HAVE TO PICK ONE TEAM AND BET ON THEM EVERY TIME

OR ELSE YOU ARE A WOMAN!

speaking of Woman

wolfmother is going to be at disco rodeo

3/16/2007 2:57:08 PM

i couldnt care less about being right, and i work for my self so no office pool.

unless i wanted lopez and gang to fill them out, but that shit would be all "carolina del norte" and i dont want read that shit.

Basically yeah its ok to fill out multiple brackets, but those people get no sorta oh my bracket is doing awesome, well what i mean is one out of 10 is awesome the other 9 shit a brick after the first day of play. I generally fill out one bracket and use it on a couple places and that is that. Ive had some great ones and some shitty ones, of course generally everyone else's was even shittier that year so I still pocketed some money lol.

3/16/2007 3:13:32 PM

I'm not a big fan of the multiple brackets either.

Brackets are mere peripherals of the tournament.

You fill one out for fun in a little pool or whatever, and if it goes to shit, it goes to shit.

3/16/2007 3:44:51 PM

man treetwista is such a cunt

3/16/2007 4:36:58 PM

i couldnt agree with this thread more

3/16/2007 4:37:51 PM

on espn you can win shit for having the best bracket

not using all 5 is idiotic


it is like someone saying "here, have 5 free lottery tickets" and you saying "oh, no, i'll just take 1"
