Priceless reasons Dov. And it's not Penn St playing, otherwise it would have been called "Penn St".

I used a very scientific method to pick my choices too. Amoung each choice of 2 teams, I chose the city that I'd rather visit.

Where is Bradley? Murray State? Iona? Bucknell? Didn't think so.

You mean you actually know where "George Mason" or "Davidson" is? I am impressed. I have never heard of either.

I have, of course, heard of "Oral Roberts" but stayed far away from it. Being a fan of classic movies, I knew that "Mr Roberts" had been in the Navy and wanted absolutely nothing oral from him.

I don't think I picked those! Well maybe Bucknell since it's near where I grew up and it's always fun to visit the home state once in awhile.

Hey, this was one of my clients. I was there at the time when the head honcho (I forget his name ) locked himself in the college tower for weeks (months???) on end.

And I was at Baylor (Waco, TX) during the Branch Dividian fire and troubles!

What's with the Dovster 5 times thingo??
I submitted my picks today and I predict I'll kick everybody's butt not only here but on ESPN.com as well.
The winner of the $10K last year picked 55 teams correctly. I'm going for the whole 64.
But I picked a lot of underdogs so I could either win the whole thing or go down the crapper at a rapid rate.
The crapper is looking inevitable.

Isn't Oral Roberts a toothbrush or is that something else?

George Mason has its own DC-Metro stop, but that's not at their larger campus.

Speaking of Janet Reno, is a remake of The Bride of Frankenstein in the works?
