March Madness Pool Champion

Posted by: Bradley McDonald

We've got quite a battle brewing for our 2nd Annual 90&9 March Madness Pool. My dad, "MonkMcDo", currently sits atop the standings, but he can't get any more points because he has Texas and UNC in the championship game.

Right behind him stands a participant named "jkopecky" who is five points behind. "jkopecky" has LSU winning it all, so even if LSU just makes it to the final game, she will win.

Just recently, the identity of "jkopecky" was revealed to me in an email from Eric Morley:
I played in the basketball pool last year and signed up again this year. I got my girlfriend to do it too. I logged her in and then I showed her each bracket and she would select a winner. I just knew she was going to beat me.

For most of the tournament Janna (jkopecky) has been winning the pool. I just thought you might want to know the story.
Janna only picked 30 games correctly, which is towards the bottom in that category, but she made up a lot of points by correctly picking some major upsets. Sorry to hear your girlfriend beat you, Eric, but I sure hope Janna wins the whole thing!

Lee Ann, our sister blogger from Duct Tape, Dixie, and Me will finish a strong second if LSU wins out. That would be two females in the top two spots. You go, girls!
