Title: Pay Out For March Madness
Post by: AUTailgatingRules on March 16, 2009, 04:53:13 PM: Hopefully we will have at least 10 players, therefore we are looking at least a total pot of $200

But, Peter Brown said this morning on SNR that it's stupid to give the same points to a #1 beating a #16 as every other game. If you have the balls to pick a huge upset, you should be rewarded for it.

I actually thought about giving something to last place (I think I actually came in last, last year) but decided against it. The poll has spoken and the payouts will be as follows.

As it stands right now:

1st 60%: $180
2nd 30%: $90
3rd 10%: $30

These numbers will change if we can get a few more players

1st place 60% of 360 = $216

2nd place 30% of 360 = $108

3rd place 10% of 360 = $36

Hooray

We have a couple of stragglers that have not yet gotten me their money. As soon as I know for sure that it is coming I will be sending out the winners $$$$. Should be in a day or so.

Congratulations to the winners!!

Oh ye of little faith (and reason). (Just teasing, Jumbo.)

I was gratified to see some of these talking-head, slicked-back-hair, shiny-suited, sports commentators eat crow after Carolina's win Monday...these guys being the same folk talking up the greatness of the Big East and the Big Ten this season.

Congrats to The X bracket winners!
