So, my office has an annual NCAA 'March Madness' pool. Although no one put in any money, which is odd. I'm not really clear on the details, but I think one of the owners is so very obsessed with the NCAA tournament that he foots the bill. So we all got 5 teams, drawn out of a box, and if they win their first game, we get $1, the second, $2 and so one. Well, I didn't get a team seeded above 7 in their division/conference. And most of my teams eventually play one another, meaning I will lose out no matter what. But I did decide to trade someone for BYU, my alma mater. They aren't expected to go that far, being seeded 8th in their division conference. But at least I feel I showed some school spirit. And if they do win, then I can rub it in all my co-workers' faces.

go cougs!!! the big game is in a few hours!
According to my brother BYU is actually better than our conference and should be in a different one...so they are good, but you are right, prob. not that good. But, Go Cougs!
Sadly BYU choked. And the team I traded for BYU - Western Kentucky - made it to the Sweet 16. Four of my teams lost their first round games. I won exactly one dollar from Butler's first round win and then they lost in their second round game in overtime. So I won a dollar. Everyone in the office has won more than one dollar. Everyone.
