@lurkeraspect84 and I are now tied. But, maybe the real story is how much ground @Demarcus Kidd-Miller has made up. He was +9 on lurker this week, plus he gained an additional 3 points on the leaders when the lowest scores were dropped. So, basically gained 12 points in one week.

Well you are used to choking the cum back.

Actually, I'm sorry. That was rude. You might not have a gag reflex.

Lol my mind went there as I was typing it. Thought about re-wording but decided I had come too far and there was no turning back.

Started out decent and finish horrible.

Adding up my score was enough for me to realize @dukedevilz is amazing for adding up everyone's.

Thanks guy.

I'm apparently never getting a perfect score. UCLA is one of the schools to blame.

just posting so you will acknowledge that the week I got zero points was earned and not because I forgot to make picks.

I got a perfect score last week. Not gonna lie, it was pretty sweet. Feel like it’s changed my whole outlook on life and made me a better person if that was even possible.

Pick'Em is a magical place where all of your wildest dreams come true.

Not sure about the latter, however. Could you possibly get any better?

 

[dukedevilz]

@WeAreDePaul has now won two straight weeks. Within striking distance of a top 5 finish. Really solid scores across the board. Looks like we might have a very tight finish to close out the season. The gap is closing on the leaders; Mossy is quietly making up ground.

I think I'll probably have double-points next week. And I always like to have double-points in the final week, which should be the Sweet 16 games.

Thanks. Always fun to have competitions like this.

Only thing I don't like is adding the scores when there are cancelations. Seemed like every time I included 7 games, there were two games being canceled or postponed. So, the 7 point and 1 point games are nixed - and the scoring then becomes 6-5-4-3-2. I don't like how the new point values don't align with what posters originally listed for their picks. But, now that almost every game is being played, it isn't too bad.

now that I'm the hot handicapper I might post fake picks at the start of the week and then go back and change them right before the games start.

 

[dukedevilz]

Don't feel great about any of the games. IU has been struggling lately, though. Might reconsider the value. But, don't think I'll be picking Wisconsin. They're still tough to beat at Assembly Hall.

Gamesmanship. That's so you. If you were a coach, I bet you'd employ the same tactic. When you're talking to all the other coaches at these national tournaments in the summer time, you'd probably lay it on real thick about some recruits you absolutely have not interest in - just so they'd waste their time and resources on scouting someone you thought wasn't worth the effort.

you're not far off. I'm coaching the old man over 40 team USA hockey team at this summer's Maccabi Games (Jewish Olympics) in Israel. Let's just say our best player is a Canadian guy who has lived in the USA for the last 30 years. We sniped him good.

Also have some spies who went to the Canada tryout to give us a scouting report.
