Didn't do all that well today, but the games get an A+. Absolutely great.

My thoughts exactly. Watching Ish Smith vs John Wall should be fun though. Very exciting first day of the tourney. If New Mexico holds Montana off I will be a solid 13-16. All this means is that I will probably go like 6-16 tomorrow but at least I can say I was leading at one point!

Missed on 5 games, which isn't too bad, but 2 of the teams I had advancing to the Sweet 16 (Georgetown and Vanderbilt).

What an embarssing performance today from the big east, supposedly the best conference this year. If not for Villanova escaping, they would have been 0-4.

They just looked horrid today. Let's hope Syracuse at least looks like a #1 seed tomorrow.

Only games I picked wrong in the evening were the Texas game but that was only by 1 point so I wasn't off by much and the Georgetown game, not many would've picked that one.

Northern Iowa/UNLV game, Texas/WF game, Washington/Marquette, and SDSU/Tennesse were all heart breaking for me. All those games came down to the last shot. Horrible...

The shot the guy from Northern Iowa hit was just a bomb from like 5 feet behind the line. Never been so relieved about a UW win.

So far today, missed Xavier, Cornell, and Missouri. Right now, the Gonzaga-FSU, Michigan State-NMSU, and Oklahoma St.-GT games are having me worried.

I'm going to be lucky to finish the first round in the top 10, but hopefully my second round picks move me up. Missed four games so far today and 5 yesterday so I'm looking forward to the second round.
