Seems to me like the scenario generator takes a lot of the fun out of it. You know the odds of everything happening, there\'s no anticipation....

You\'re right, Duke 110-58 was a silly prediction.  Duke 131-20.  What\'s the other thead?

Nope, it\'s actually quite the opposite.  If you know which scenarios make you win or lose, then the games become much more exciting.  If you know for example that you need UConn to win and Georgia Tech to lose (especially if there\'s money in the pool), then the games become way more exciting than if you don\'t know which scenarios win it for you.  Without the scenario generator, it would take hours of number crunching every scenario on everyone\'s bracket to figure out if you could win.  The scenario generator adds tons of excitement to anyone who still has a chance.  (i.e. not me)

What more can I say?

I\'ve accurately predicted the Final Four. When Duke beats Oklahoma St. in the final, my genius status will be solidified. While I\'m at it, Cubs beat the Yankees in the World Series.

The only team I got left is Ok. St. and I got them to win it all. I admit if they take it it was pure luck on my part pickin\' em. I really did not follow college this yr. as my attention has been on the fab 4 and rick. I did see one Ok.St. game and they looked good and they matched up in the brackets pretty well so.....
Oh and the Angels may have something to say abt that other prediction.

I guess Wolfman was right about the Final Four games being weighted too heavily.  For Leith, Oklahoma St. winning a game is the difference between finishing second and finishing last.  Damn.

On a side note, if Oklahoma St. wins on Saturday, I\'ll be the one finishing last instead of Leith.  I suppose I do still have something to cheer for (aside from the mighty Huskies, of course).
Go see your Breakfast, there are starving Leiths in California
