March Madness Bracket Contest 2009

Hey there, it looks like our March Madness group from last year is reusable this year. So many of you already have your teams registered. You'll just need to make your picks when they become available. http://golfhos.mayhem.sportsline.com/brackets(password: golfhos) 1st Place: $40 paypal (winner must be a golfhos member to qualify) Since no one objected, the scoring system is as follows: First Round: 1 (multiply seed) Second Round: 2 (multiply seed) Third Round: 4 (multiply seed) Fourth Round: 8 (multiply seed) Semifinals: 16 (multiply seed) Finals: 32 (multiply seed) Multiply Seed - The seed of the winning team is multiplied by the correct pick total. Ex. If the 12th Seed Wins and your weight is 2 then 24 points would be credited for the Win. (Genesis 26:4 >> And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven...) |

How about automatic maximum points allocation for those of us on the other side of the "pond"?  |

Same prize as last year
? Lol, it was supposed to be $40 last year, but you had to make it complicated. If you win this year and pass again, I already have your address, so I'm thinking the poll for the substitute prize might be between the following: A) The Complete Dune Collection B) Dune miniseries on HD DVD C) Dune (lynch movie) on Laserdisc D) 55 gallon drum of Fleshlight lube (partially used) E) This blow up doll (NSFW) |

If Stroh wins I say you get him an Aneros to go with his fleshlight(s).

I'm considering a bracket populated entirely with upsets. It's not like I'll win anyway.
