I will start finding a safe place to display my trophy.

Leon 03-18-2014 07:58 AM

If someone will help point out a Chase w/Trophy card that isn't too expensive I will buy it and donate it to the winner, for keeping during the year, until the next winner next year....(unless he/she wins again).

I don't personally have any interest in any of thesen type pools as I don't care for current sports too much....except I still like to play sports myself :).

ps... I just saw where the trophy card was found......perfect!! Good luck to everyone who plays.

Hoping for Syracuse to have some "bounce-back" in them! Tourney looks wide open to me!

Big Ben 03-18-2014 08:37 PM

I'm in. Thanks for getting this going!

Should be a fun tournament this year. I would like to give the winner this T206 Lake for their collection. Just PM me if you are the winner.

freakhappy 03-19-2014 08:09 AM

Great gesture, Andrew...I'll give you my address after the tourney ;)

Thanks for getting this together, Dan!

I'm in (but probably going to get crushed).

Does anybody else have Weber St winning the title?!?!

irishdenny 03-19-2014 07:45 PM

Behind the Scene...
 
Hey There Everyone,

I just wanted to let everyone know...
I had sent the card to Scott the year before last. I ran the Tourney that year. The winner from the past year sent me the Card in order for me to send it onto SGC, We/The board thought it to be a Good Idea(& I Still do!) to make an effort for Re~slabing the card into a Solid SGC holder with a Net54 NCAA Title on it. There was an issue with the Lettering(time had passed enough, imo) So, I just sent the Card onto Scott so he wouldn't be without his Trophy Card to much longer.

Present Day... After Pete PM'd & FB Scott, I thought it would be helpful so PM'd Scott, just to see if I could help in any way? Scott, I believe had since moved, and Scott had thought that he sent the winner the Trophy Card before he Moved!
Scott, with Sincere Apologies, had emailed me back with what had happened. I Truly believe that this was just Life getting in the way, as we all know... that sometimes it will do that.

Scott has Always been a Grand Ole' Lad.... & I for one am glad that we're all back on track!!!

Pete, "Thanks a Bunch" for coming to Our Rescue ;- )

"Let the Games BegiN!!!"

As Always...

GoldenAge50s 03-20-2014 08:08 AM

Just a friendly reminder to get your picks made! Time is growing short!

ibuysportsephemera 03-20-2014 08:48 AM

Got mine...thanks Dan for putting this together.

Jeff

ibuysportsephemera 03-20-2014 12:26 PM

Dayton!
 
And now I remember why I hate March madness so much. First Game and first loss. If Buffett is giving his billion away, it will probably be to someone in Dayton Ohio.

Jeff

bn2cardz 03-20-2014 12:51 PM

I don't follow basketball at all. So none of my brackets are the same because I just didn't care. Yet when I did the billion dollar one I tried to put in some thought... that back fired. I should have used the bracket I have here with you guys because that one did have Dayton. haha.

I Only Smoke 4 the Cards 03-20-2014 01:15 PM

O-H-I-Oh shit they lost!

Can we stop right now, before Delaware losses, and I'm still 7-0 :eek:

Runscott 03-21-2014 09:56 AM

I'm just wondering if anyone survived all those upsets yesterday with minimal damage. If Louisville had gone down, I would have just tossed my sheet in the trash.

nolemmings 03-21-2014 10:22 AM

You can follow everyone's progress by clicking on the link in the original post. My day started horribly with that Buckeye loss, especially since I had them beating Syracuse in the next round. Luckily, I only missed one other game, when that St Joe's big man allowed a UConn rebound, putback and foul in the last minute of regulation instead of owning the glass and grabbing the freakin ball.

Today's 8-9 matchups should all be tough, but hopefully the rest of the games will mostly follow the script.

Runscott 03-21-2014 10:30 AM

Amazing how well some of you did, picking the upsets.

glchen 03-21-2014 11:08 AM

I'm in one of the bunches tied for #2, but will quickly drop like a rock as one of my Final Four teams (Ohio State) is already gone. :p

Dead on, St. Joe's blew it. I'm falling fast, even Villanova gave me a scare until they decided to stop playing Milwaukee's game.

And the first big one falls

And damn, was so close on get Manhatten right

Section103 03-21-2014 12:30 PM

That Duke loss sure wont help many people. But Blue Devil tears taste sweet. :D

I had Duke winning in both of my brackets, so adios everyone - see you next year.

AMBST95 03-21-2014 02:35 PM

My bracket is all kinds of wrong right now

Jayworld 03-21-2014 02:48 PM

I'm down near the bottom, but still have a chance. I did not have Duke in the final four, so I'm good, as long as Michigan State. Louisville and Arizona keep winning. Hopefully I'll pick up some points in the 2nd round….

I Only Smoke 4 the Cards 03-21-2014 08:47 PM

Tied for 45th!

Runscott 03-28-2014 10:28 AM

Get ready, I plan to pass you all at the finish line.

glchen 04-06-2014 12:51 PM

It looks like we already have a winner here since no one got the championship game correct. Amazing how quickly I dropped from at one point tied for #2 to now #92, very nearly dead last in the pool.

nebboy 04-06-2014 05:40 PM

#94 for me - the worst bracket is mine - dam proud of it!

edriskill 04-06-2014 08:57 PM

Thank you Kentucky

slidekellyslide 04-07-2014 07:10 AM

I don't know the winner off hand from his espn handle so if edriskill7 would PM me his mailing address I'll get his Chase Trophy sent off.

edriskill 04-07-2014 09:50 AM

Dan, PM sent

npa589 04-07-2014 01:57 PM

Amazingly, in our group, not a single person picked either Kentucky or Uconn to reach the final.

I Only Smoke 4 the Cards 04-07-2014 07:05 PM

This was a crazy year. I can't believe uconn made it.

Section103 04-07-2014 07:12 PM

To my credit, I did call my "bottom quartile finish" and pretty much finished right there. :cool:

dog*dirt 04-26-2014 08:36 AM

Anyone know who won? I said I would offer a T206 Lake to the winner but no one has contacted me.

Thanks

GoldenAge50s 03-16-2015 01:55 PM

Here's hoping we are going to do the NET 54 pool again!

Are we??

mattsey9 03-16-2015 04:27 PM

Just made my picks. Anybody but Kentucky! Keep 1976 alive!
