OK, who called their team "TSP Talk March Madness"? :suspicious: Was that intentional?

It's not me, if anyone was curious.

I see. It must have been a mistake as no teams were picked by person. I will delete it.

My Bracket's a bust...

Did anyone expect VCU to beat Kansas??? or for that matter for Duke to lose to Arizona, which allowed UCONN to head to the final 4...

Interesting, no matter what, it is going to be an good Final 4 tourney...

I heard ESPN had 5 million bracket entries and 2 picked the correct final 4.
