I step out of the Shadows to announce the AskDg March madness bracket challenge is up. http://www.askdg.com/marchmadness/

You may make as many brackets as you wish. It is free to play and no registration is required.

Oh, hell yeah!! Cool beans, will definitely be doing my bracket!!

I figured you would like that. I think I have the NFL football pool fixed too so that will make a comeback too.

Thanks Peter

Many for getting both pools working again!!

Houston, we have a problem! You have Florida St twice, and Butler is supposed to be one of those, against UTEP. I am just going to choose Florida St in that one, because I would have chosen butler.

Uh oh, I think you have the wrong matchups for the Final Four too. Midwest plays West, East plays South. At least according to NBC...

Oops, got them switched. Should be fixed now

Cool! I am in!

I just did mine but was going to print it after I submitted and that was a mistake. LOL. Is there anywere to check my picks so I can do that? I couldn't find iot but I am not really awake yet either LOL I printed the whole brackett but my picks aren't on there.

Sent it to you in a PM.

Thanks Peter, Lifesaver again LOL

Hmmm...made my picks but my browser messed up when I hit submit! Cold, can you check to see if my entry went through?

Nope, it did not post.

Crap!! Looks like it was pop-up issue. Will redo it.

Okay, hopefully they posted this time!

Yeah, there is a javascript confirmation popup

Looks like you did http://askdg.com/marchmadness/picks.php?team=Kansas

1 - President Obama
2 - ColdinCbus
2 - Mike Golic
2 - Mom
3 - Cowherd
3 - Lucky
3 - Scott Van Pelt

Full standing here.

Lucky, you seriously had Notre Dame going to the Elite Eight?

Many upsets yesterday. I watched the Kansas State game and part of the KU game.

Yeah, the Villanova - Robert Morris game was a pretty good one too.

Oh no! I did not even realize my bracket did not post? Bummer...

It posted, view the full results page. Your tied for 4th.

Oh, sorry, thanks! If I was paying attention... It was a brutal day for brackets yesetrday! I KNEW I should have listened to Doug closer!

Of course I did, I have to keep up my streak of completely sucking in the bracket!!!

Fricking ND...!!

I am sucking FAR more this year. And Lucky, you should know better...

I know, I know...but I couldn't help myself!

Awww, I didn't get in!!! And look at all the upsets so far!! The Big East has been crappy, too--nuts!!!

Good luck to everyone, and ty Peter for getting this going!!

Dg, I thought "I am Screwed" was your bracket. Now I need to figure out who that is.

well, there goes my chances,. KU just lost

Almost everyone had KU to win it all so you are not that bad off, but, those are not looking too good now to win... especially if my Syracuse gamble pays off.

I have the Kansas St/BYU game on now. BYU is ahead 7-0 LOL. KU beat Kansas state 3 times this year so it is not looking good for Kansas fans.. KU ALMOST came back in the end. The UCONN men did not make the tourney this year? I don't get the games for them way out here so I don't follow them as close as I used to. ESPN has the women on often though,.

Uconn and North Carolina both did not make it this year.

Suprised about that. Both of those schools are almost always in it.

Kansas State looked good tonight,

Congrats to Lucky, for winning the challenge. Wild Tourney this year.

Lucky wins- I am pretty sure that a certain location in the netherworld has frozen over.

Alright...I'm confused!! How are you saying I won?!?

Holy crap, Lucky WON something?!

Grats bro!
