You guys still running that and do you just pick a team with no draft I assume?

The one I'm in drafts but I'm assuming with that many people it is no draft

sorry I'm a little confused about your question - I'm not sure what you mean by "you just pick a team: so let me try and break this down real quick...my comment that you quoted referenced 3 separate things...

1. a points only player pool for the NCAA tourney that I do not run - that one is $100 and the spots are all full

2. I run an NCAA brackets pool (normal bracket pool where you pick all the games) through CBS sports and you are more than welcome to join - all you need is to shoot me your email address and be able to PayPal me $20 by first tourney game. We usually have around $800 in the pot but this year I'm hoping to get it up to over $1k - we will pay out at least the top 3 if not more depending on how high it gets - this is open to anyone with paypal that wants to jump in.

3. our March Madness draft that I run in our FB sports group. I think we are still doing it but we are in the middle of a couple of other drafts over there currently so I'm not sure if we'll get it in on time. This one is free (its just like the drafts we do here) - we basically draft 4 9-player teams simultaneously, made up of all time college greats. If you're interested let me know and I'd be happy to add you to the group on FB. I know some people prefer their anonymity and don't like FB and that's fine - anyone here is always welcome to join our group - you've been gracious enough welcoming us here and I'd be happy to return the favor if anyone ever wanted to join.

hope that cleared it up - if not, I'll give you my cell and you can call me lol

Last year, and this year again, I'm doing a pretty unique NCAA draft bracket. The basic premise of it is that there are 16 participants, and each are assigned 4 random teams (1 in each region) at the start. It doesn't matter which teams you end up getting because the winner of the game is determined by point spread. The team favored to win must cover the spread in order for the participant to keep their team. If they don't cover but still advance, the opposing manager gets to steal the team as their new owner.

So for example say you a #2 seed and they faced a #15 seed and are favored to win by 15.5 points. If the #2 seed wins by 13 points, the owner of the #15 seed now takes over as the owner of the #2 seed team and advances to the next round. The payouts start to go out incrementally starting with the sweet 16 and increase on a scale all the way to ultimate winner.

It's great because a manager could end up starting with all #1 seeds and not win anything. Or conversely you could be stuck with 4 16 seeds and end up winning the whole thing.
