Issue # 16.7.2 “Krispy Kremer Kleans Up”
If you’re a winner, please contact me. Well, that does it for 2011. Hopefully, the NCAA is done tinkering with the bracket. Also, after the 2012 pool, we plan to have our first HWCI Soccer: Euro 2012 pool. Contact me if you’re interested.
Butler, it’s hard to root for you playing like that, but nothing was falling in. Next year, make it 3 in a row!
These people didn’t care it was an ugly game:
1st ($515): Roy W (Krispy Kremer) 2nd ($260): David F (The Mighty Mobelfakta) 3rd ($175): Sam S (TheLakeShow) 4th ($120): Craig S (Craig) 5th ($ 80): Ted J (MB Camel Jockies) 6th ($ 60): Charles D (BINLADEN) Bonus ($40): Blakeley H (For Narnia)
Sam and Blakeley can thank the awfully low scoring game for winning their tiebreakers.
UConn coach Jim Calhoun, in his always humble self, forgets to thank Butler. Sheesh…
Seemed like it was 4-3 forever (as my son Spencer would say), but some good defense helped keep the score very low, as only 41 have been scored at the half (22-19). Five threes have helped Butler compensate from a poor inside game while UConn is just struggling and picking up fouls. Hopefully, the second half will pick up (especially for those in the tiebreaker who have a higher point total than their competitor).
Thanks for the thirty who participated in our HWCI NCAA First Four for Charity and the others who helped contribute an extra $40 to make it an even $100 donation from HWCI NCAA Pool! Here’s the link to the receipt…
Issue # 14.6.2 “Our 17th Year the Most Random?”
Good luck for the 10 who are hoping to win money and the five who have already won money but want the higher placement. In three hours, we start (how does the East Coast watch games that start at 9:23 pm!?).
Issue # 13.6.1 “Butler is Back Again”
Good luck to the five for the Bonus and the five for the 6th money spot.
For the time being, Final possibilities (for the 10 entries alive), Bonus possibilities (for the 5 entries alive).
And sends Craig out of the top spot for the first time since the first weekend. Either The Mighty Mobelfakta or Krispy Kremer will be our champ.
No one has a horse in this game unless you think one team will be easier to beat in the final. If you’ve forgotten here are the Final Four possibilities and the Bonus possibilities.
For the Bonus, if UConn loses, Real Sporting FC will win the $40 bonus.
Here are the four possible outcomes (since VCU/Butler doesn”t matter): Continue reading
Issue # 12.5.3 “Sweet 16 Thoughts on 16 Years”
A different twist this year due to time constraints. But it also allows me to brag that the best smartphone out there is the year-old HTC Droid Incredible. How great is it? When my Droid Incredible was stolen two months ago and I was eligible to upgrade to any Verizon phone (with the Vz iPhone out), I still chose the Droid Incredible. Thanks to Nandroid and Titanium Backup for restoring my new phone to its grand ol’ state.
I’m a little disappointed with the Droid Incredible 2 that is coming out, but I’ll have to see the official specs to see if I want to upgrade to it.
BTW, good luck to everyone who is still alive!
