I am pinning this bad boy to the top. I bet we get a nice flood of entries after the brackets go up tonight.

Thanks, Jason.

FYI...since the DBR group is a "locked group" you will not be able to join other locked groups on the ESPN website. If you want to join the DBR group, you will have to leave the other groups.

BTW, I think it's only fair that, since we're not playing for money, only pride, we be limited to one bracket per person.

Does that sound fair? We've got a couple people with two brackets already.

Wow, really? Is that intentional on their part, or some weird system glitch that nobody has fixed?

The "locked group" function, from what I understand, is to prevent someone who has multiple brackets from switching out their bracket that is doing poorly for another one that is doing well mid-tournament.

I HATE people who fill out multiple brackets in the same pool. No way anyone should be allowed to have multiple sets of picks and then crow about how they are winning. No no no no!!!

There actually is a way to have a bracket in multiple groups. If you create another bracket after joining the DBR group it will automatically be enterred into the DBR group thereby appearing as a multiple entry. If you click on that bracket and then "leave the group", you can assign it to another group without loosing your original entry into the DBR group.

EarlJam is in. No real need for anyone else to turn in a bracket. You are simply wasting your time.

Look for Louisville to make a serious run, taking out the Vols.

What free site do you all recommend for someone looking to run an online office bracket contest?

Hey all -

I'm a Fuqua grad from 2005. If you are looking for help filling out your brackets (you know to figure out who Duke is meeting in Finals) thought you might be interested in checking out a site a couple friends and I have started. It's called BracketBrains (www.bracketbrains.com) and in my humble opinion has some of the best tools on the web for analyzing the bracket.

Certainly would be interested in hearing your thoughts.

Happy bracketing!

I'm having some trouble. I joined and am listed but I am not permitted to fill out a bracket. When I click on My Bracket the site informs me that "there has been an error processing your request".

Any ideas in what doing wrong?

Apparently, after Earljam filled out a bracket...the software just said "why even let other people waste their time?"
