hey all..we still have a few weeks....just wanted to let you know I will be running the march madness pool again. Let me know if you will be in and I will start the entry count. Same rules as last year,ie $25 bucks an entry and 2 entry max per person. I will also send a note thru the website to all of last years participants. Just wanted to get the word out early so you can plan appropriately.

Thanks!

Ha!! Yes, you are right. I know nothing about college basketball. But, then again, I did win money for last place so I didn't do so bad after all.

Hey Andy,

Having trouble with the PM. My email is [email protected]. Send the link and address for the check.

Thanks and see you in NYC,

Dan Mitlof

[76erfan]

sounds good Dan! look fwd to auctioning with ya in NYC!

[76erfan]

bumping this up........site is live now and brackets able to be filled out. I think our numbers will surpass last years!

[BK METS]

Quick question on this.. not sure if you have the answer. Once you create one bracket, it asks if you want to join the National contest and if you accept, it creates another bracket. The question is, how do you distinguish between the National Contest bracket and my 2nd contest bracket, if you have 2 ? I cant figure it out, if anyone can help... It shows 3 brackets for me.. only one filled out.. so I don't know which one will be the National bracket and which will be my 2nd entry..

[76erfan]

third bracket is just part of the national contest and not part of the my pool if I am understanding you correctly. It will show up as a separate icon under your fantasy games profile there. You should be able to toggle back and forth between your two brackets in cbs. I cant see them until gametime Thursday......so cant say for sure...but I do show you only have one bracket filled out. You can click the plus sign to add a 2nd bracket.

Can you email me the information link, and address for check. I was in your pool last season and want to do the two brackets again.
