How many "homerized" on Wisconsin?

I just saw Dhazer has 'em through 1, Zero2Cool has 'em through 1, and I think Joestrdamus went deep with them. I was counting on heavy homerism to gain a competitive advantage, but it appears that this bracket competition is populated by a pack of velociraptors without prejudice.

I admit, I am a homer picker, but I didn't go homer on Wisconsin. I think they can beat FSU. They'll grind them down to nothing and slow the game down.

Eat it! As I said, I thought Wisconsin would win and they did. And you wanted to jump so quick to say it was a homer pick. EAT IT!

Go Badgers!

Ugh.

I picked Wisconsin to move past FSU and no further... But I would have gladly taken the hit on my brackets to see them lose in the first round. lol

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

Good luck to everyone on the brackets.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

My Bar Notes--- Print this one if you are heading out to the sports bar to go along with your bracket:

UCLA vs. Villanova 1:05=== Dave (me) , Porky, IM and PF (Bigtime) want UCLA. The rest of you want Villanova

Md vs Memphis === 3:20 Everyone has Memphis

UConn vs Texas A&M === 3:35 Everyone has UConn

Purdue vs Washington=== 5:40 Bognerz, Rock,Packerhq,akamp74, and PF want Purdue. The rest of us want Washington

North Carolina vs. LSU===5:45 "key" game for Tengo Juego Matt- He wants LSU- We definitely do not

Michigan vs. Oklahoma===5:50 "key" game for Dave (me) I want Michigan, everyone else does not, although maybe Porky, dhazer, and PF might, because they are DOA on this one (Clemson)

W Kentucky vs. Gonzaga===8:10 Everyone in it has Gonzaga. The DOA's would want to root for WKy They are: PackerHQ, AKAMP74, andPF

Texas vs Duke===8:15 Tengo has Texas. Everyone else has Duke, except PF. He's DOA (again, sorry :thumbleft: Minnesota)

So. Watch out for Tengo- He could run away with this thing. Dhazer is not dead- PackerFinland is potentially dying, pray for UCLA, PF.

Damn. The night before the tourney I had a dream that Wisconsin upset Pitt. I woke up not even knowing for sure which region they were playing in.

If this goes down...I will be extremely creeped out.
