| Joe thanks again for running a great tournament. And congrats to you for your 3rd place finish this year. | ||

| Well, what a final game! Leslie and I had a previous engagement so we watched the recorded game. Of course, I turned my phone off and watched every second, including the National Anthem and player's introductions (Leslie insists that is part of the whole experience). I finally finished "In the Money" and double-digits on all my other entries. Once again, it was a blast! Thanks everyone for your participation! | ||
| (Joe T. - Chino, CA) 4/6/2026 11:06:15 PM | ||
| Jean-Marc: Sorry, no World Cup this year. Since they changed it to a 48 team format, I would have to redesign the entire picking and bracket format. So, from now on, just the Women's World Cup and EURO, if they don't mess with the current format. :) | ||
| (Jean-Marc S. - Placentia, CA) 4/6/2026 11:03:17 PM | ||
| My first top 10 finish! Thank you Joe as always! World Cup next?? | ||
| (Ron G. - Anaheim, CA) 4/6/2026 10:40:00 PM | ||

| That was a brutal loss for Santa Clara … | ||
| (Joe T. - Chino, CA) 3/20/2026 1:19:01 PM | ||
| What the hell just happened??? Santa Clara goes up by 3 with 2.4 seconds left, and Kentucky ties with a bank shot from just past half-court! If you don't enjoy March Madness, you don't have pulse! :) |
