it's gambling.
 
 that's like saying: "playing multiple hands of blackjack at once is G-A-Triple-Y" or "making a parlay bet is G-A-Triple-Y"

its not the same as a parlay bet.  a parlay bet, you must get all bets right to win.  
 
 and i guess trying to pick the teams isnt the fun part for everyone.

whats wrong with college sports, mankie? [/b]

Nothing against college sports in particular, just jumpy-bouncy in general.
 
 Although.......    
 
 The college players do go overboard with the celebrations when they haven't actually achieved SHIT. Take College runny-catchy for example....after EVERY single play they're high-fiving, arse-patting, hugging, raise-the-roofing, and all that was achieved was he ran for a 6" gain. I mean...what's up with that??
 
 Oh, and those morons with painted faces and giant foam #1 finger pointing thingies, they just need a good slapping.
 
 Then there's the cheerleaders, at least there is something positive about college sports.

 Shouldn't Ozzy be selling "devil fingers" foam hands???  
 
   
 BTW, "The Bird" foam hands should be sold exclusively from Dave Mathews Band vendors.

and its actually on campus in our gym ... i'm really surprised ESPN is covering that, they can maybe fit 3,000 into McDonough
 
 and i have no idea how good cal st. fullerton is ... i know their baseball team could kick the shit out of g'towns.

an update, because i know you all care ...
 
 until the late games friday night my bracket was #100 out of 100,000 on cbs sportsline ... my bracket was completely busted after that night though (had cuse in the final 4), but i'm still #1000 overall and leading my 40 bracket at $20 a piece league, and that would be a niice win ...

My wife went 28-5 (I was 25-8) in picking the first round, inclusing 4-2 with underdogs. And we have never watched a college basketball game in 4 years together.

   it just goes to show, it doesnt matter how many basketball games you watch!

here's a good preview
 
 looks like CSF has five injured players and starts noone taller than 6'7"
 
 sounds like it should be interesting ... although i hope more so than the 64-34 trashing of BU last week ...

I just hope the coach sits all the players down before the game and says:
 
 "And David put his hand in the bag and took out a stone and slung it. And it struck the Philistine on the head, and he fell to the ground."
