Even though I took all 4 #1s to the final 4..... Me thinks one or two of them might just get knocked out this weekend.
At least, the Israeli is sinking and burning in Miami

BTW, what is our DL Forum group's bet ont this thing???
(No, if I lose, I will not leave the Red Tail)

Here is what is strange. All of the picks except Dov's bottom 4 are above the 60th percentile and most of those above the 80th. So, we all did a good job in the first round....let's see how quickly it all falls apart?
But we aren't exactly in this league.

Interesting note, one of the leaders has Boston College over Pitt for the final, an unlikely situation. Of course, if it happens, he has a great shot at winning. He also has GW in the Final Four, if they don't get their rear in gear soon, he will drop like a rock.
