March Madness

DigitalNonsenseReadr · 03-15-2010, 12:16 AM

Has anyone tried starting a pool here in the past? Or is it a case of too much effort and too little interest? I'm not interested in gambling, but just a friendly competition for bragging rights.

I guess we should have... the only teams I read much about were Cornell and Syracuse since our paper covers that part of the country. Getting any other teams to this point would have been tough...

I never got the hang of basketball. The rules are pretty straightforward and all, much easier than footsballs, but I just don't like watching it. I particularly don't understand the attraction of watching college sports, unless you went to the college involved.

My college was very much into sports, but very much didn't have a nationally ranked team. In anything. The marching band was really good, though. One of the best in the country.

March Madness? Pool? Surely the talk is of swimming? because it would be madness to go in the pool in March. in Mich, anyway.
