Welcome again, old friends.

This year marks the 15th anniversary for the events on this site -and for the occasion I've cleaned up the site a bit. If you remember, the last 2 years I hosted the site with a different piece of software.  This year it's back in-house.  Same features, more control. Welcome back! -Kory

 Kentucky favored by  6
..And before you go lighting any couches tonight, remember.. couches have feelings too.  And before you start making fun of UK fans -(by all means, do so) but the rioting thing?  FYI IU did it in 2002 -just saying...  So it's Eshawn and his BLOOD MONEY Kentucky Lotto pick vs. Coach (please don't light Coach on fire, we like his annual donations)  I will be updating the site during the game so check back often.  Who won the NIT? Who wins the "deep Pocket Award" -Stay tuned!!!

 Lines for the Final 4
CHoly Crap, where does the day go?  I went and took apart a used playset, moved it and now it is Hoop time! Look for a full summary tomorrow, site update etc. but for now, here are the lines. -Missed the MEGA MILLIONS?  Remember, it's not too Late for a SuperGrid. Contact me prior to the 3:00 mark of the 2nd half and the remaining 4 can be yours (there are two square that I need to update)

 And then there was 4
Current standings are up to date, look for various site updates in the next few days.  The funny thing of note? there are at least 4 minors in the top 6 and one 70 I don't know what that means exactly but I have a sneaky suspicion that it isn't good.

 Sunday's Line
Things are starting to shape up, or heat up, depending on your situation. Please note, there still are a few SUPERGRID spots open.. You can pick these up at anytime (that being said, it's FROZEN with 3:00 minutes left for any particular game if picked during the game). Tonight, I will have a big update and we will see where the chips lie at that point.

No major bracket busters as of yet, but personally remind me to NEVER listen to DIGGER PHELPS or JAY BILLAS again. We all know DOUG GOTTLIEB is a tool,  Regardless, good luck to all and GO IU!

 Waiting...
While we are waiting for the Tournament's first TRUE day (I don't count the play in games and never will..) I have done a few updates. Smackboard users will find the text limit has been increased as well as the window size. The TWITTERWALL got an update and I also added a link to the official NIT "Form. Fill it out manually and get it in my hands by tomorrow evening (or a picture of it.. etc)

3.11.2012
 Away we Go!
First and foremost, the ENTRY FORM is now live for the 64-U-pick.
If you have friends or family feel free to bring them in. But if they are new, please make sure to have them introduce themselves or let me know.. just so I can keep track. (contact info at the bottom)

 On the 'morn of Madness
Greatings one and all! The big day has finally arrived as the brackets for the greatest sporting event in the nation will be announced tonight.

With the new addition of the old Smackboard, the basics are complete and the doors are open! Look for a Calendar events and other additions and tweets during the days to come.

02.26.2012
Updated Basement -and time off
Nothing major, but for the month of March I will have an extra HD TV behind the bar.  I also took Thursday and Friday off (15th & 16th), so if you are in the area, this will be indeed THEE place for March Madness. In addition, I also upgraded the Jukebox. It physically is 90 pounds lighter with 200% more content. Springsteen starts at midnight, bring your own air guitar.


02.24.2012
Site Construction Begins
OK peeps, if you are here early then you've been given the link ahead of time, regardless.. this is the new site.  For the next few days I will be be filling in the blanks and adding content, links etc as well as correcting mistakes etc. I'm taking time this year to build a framework, so that future sites will be easy to maintain, easy to setup and easy to access. Feel free to drop me a line regarding what you liked about previous sites, etc.  Due to the nature of how I hosted 2011 and 2010, much of that content is lost. For Archival purposes, I hope to reproduce the content.. but the "look and feel" and features are lost to memory.
