Remember this in the middle of people's work day(for most at least). Assuming he paid his $25 already I think we should at least give people 2-3 hours during the day to pick. Now if we are still here waiting at 6pm tonight then we may have an issue. Can anyone contact him?

2 hours seems fine to me. Everybody knew this had to be fast paced to get done so that seems reasonable.

Nah, we had a 2 hr deadline last year. You sign up and pay knowing that you are going to have to check this in the morning, at work and at home at night.

Everyone else is cognizant of it and sends people a list if they know they will be gone for their next pick.

I agree that more flexibility should be given during normal work hours. We seem to be moving at a pretty decent pace.

I'm fine with two hours. But someone had something about it being exactly 1 hour and his time is up? 60 minutes seems extremely short. 2 hours is a bit better but I'll give Mulva and Mirg the benefit of the doubt come my pick and either of them havent picked in exactly two hours.

For the record, I doubt anyone takes 2 hrs. Everyone in it this year is usually really quick about their picks (based on the last 2 years).

Was debating both those guys. Just worried about how easily they can be done after 1 game. If they win 2 or even 1 game those are great picks though.

I like the Napier pick. Could definitely see UConn taking down Nova.

I mean Haws is playing Oregon. Oregon plays ZERO defense. He might get 40.

Hopefully he'll be around for his next pick. I'm guessing his list will be gone by then lol.

There is 1 guy who I think will be there. He is like 5th on my list, so it depends on who goes from mine...lol

Is it pathetic that I no longer fill out a bracket until I am done with this?

Really should probably do it the other way around, but oh well.

I never fill out my brackets until Wednesday Night. But yeah this thing does play a little into who I pick in my bracket(Fuck you Tony Snell and New Mexico).

Yeah, last year I had Boise winning the play-in, then the 1st round and losing in the 2nd...

I wouldve had them lose to LaSalle if it wasnt for me picking Derrick Marks lol
