None of this can be good anybody.

That being said, I can flatten my comp. despite Cotton being the tough mid-major type primed to be the spoiler against a spoiled major conference team having to travel out of his region. Like Depaul if the game is at the United Center.....

I'm glad everyone is taking this for all the fun it was intended. I was worried there might be allegations of a popularity contest, etc., but I just think brackets are a blast. Why not incorporate them into our own crazy little internet world right here?

Plus, I don't like my "real" team's (Notre Dame) chances to get past the second round, if that, so this year I will focus my March joy on obner Madness.

Not only do I have to go to the Midwest, but it's by far the strongest conference. True, we don't have a LooGar/Aural top end, but it's even throughout.

And scary.

Plus, I forgot how these ranking things go, but how the hell am I a "4" seed? You're telling me I'm supposed to outpost people, while not doing the one word posts?

Ridiculous...

You were in the top 16 posters, as of this morning. 1-4 posters were 1 seeds, 5-8 posters were 2 seeds, 9-12 posters were 3 seeds, 13-16 posters were 4 seeds, and so on...

I was being rhetorical in that aspect...

So, what's my road to victory, then?

NIT? So you're saying I'm more like a St. John's and less like a Duke? I can live with that for now but I'll be a dark horse come 2006!

8 - Charli - 711

As little as a year ago I would have gotten my ass kicked, but Charli's newly married, got a job where she can't post as much and Obner has slipped in her list of priorities, so I'm prediciting a big V.

Can NSFW posts count as two? That would mix it up a bit. Team Kung Fu is deadly from behind the NSFW arc.

It's an honor to be mentioned as one of the also-ran, 2nd class Obner-Lite division. I think I'll reinvent myself as "Community College of Southern Nevada."

I don't conject an upset in my 13 vs. 4. Unless, being transported to the Southeast, my lecherous-mongerous self becomes preoccupied with the pretty young ladies in their dental-floss back thongs, sunning at Panama City Beach, that Bee catches me napping and puts his sting in me.

Copping the matchups from Benvolio:

MIDWEST REGION:

4 - Postmersh - 1087
13 - south pacific - 407

5 - Yail Bloor - 951
12 - Cotton - 520

So, It'd be Yail vs. me in the second round, or Cotton (if he succeeds)? This is gonna be pretty tough...

Dude, whatever; you've become a posting machine of late while have conveniently been busy with other things. Someone in Indianapolis (or Dallas) hates me, hates me I tell you

There's just less to do at work, that's all....

If I win, do you want me to shoot your ashes over the board with a cannon?
