I'd suggest holding off on the victory dance for a bit, Dovster.
Due to the proprietary and highly technical manner of my picks, my expertise doesn't kick in until the second round.

Which do you prefer -- me being on top of you once or you being on top of me three times?

I believe it means Potential (or Possible) Points Remaining.

It does.

I see Traveller has moved ahead of Cholula after the most recent results.

I'm also ahead of Mrs. Cholula so I am no longer the woman in 2nd place.

Duke vs. Florida.... where Yannick's baby boy Joakim goes off for a career high 32 points and 18 rebounds en route to a 80-64 beat down of Coach K's boys, and earning an NCAA trophy to go with his Daddy's Roland Garros hardware.

Well, my scientific choices of # 3 are still tied for second place. It looks like I may well have an entry all the way to the Championship game with Duke playing UCONN.

I am not thrilled with the direction I am going either. I had the George Mason game but lost the NC State-Cal one. I guess you are awaiting the Kentucky game about now? Or is your new "home" team Northwestern St.?

Let's method #3 was picking the first team listed, right? In the first round, that means picking every higher seeded team. All of the two seeds you have getting beat in the second round. Maybe it will happen. On the plus side, you end up with 4 #1s in the Final Four.
