2015 TBP NCAA Tourney

HERE IS HOW TO PLAY.

1) Go directly to the FIND GROUPS link below;

http://games.espn.go.com/tournament-challenge-bracket/2015/en/groupfind

2) JOIN THE GROUP

———– Group Name = TheBurningPlatform  (enter the name in the red “SEARCH GROUPS” tab, and then click on it)

———– Password (if asked for it) = BigDogs

3) Fill Out Your Bracket(s) (up to 3 of them) by clicking on the big red “GET STARTED”.

Note #1:  You can use the same name/password you used last year … or, create a new one.  If you forgot your name/password, there’s a place to click “forgot password”, and they’ll email it to you.

Note #2:  The past few years people have been using WEIRD names. If you’re a TBP regular, it would be nice if you used the same name … so that we can make fun of you. (Although I did enjoy the entry named “URHomo”, which I suspect was bb’s entry.)

Note #3:  Don’t forget to signup to win $10,000, a new Acura, or the One Billion Dollars for the perfect bracket.  After you sign up, don’t forget you also have to validate (there’s a button) your email.  Last year I signed up for the free Acura, and I got emails and calls from every fucking Acura dealer in NJ.  That was a lot of fun.

===================================

Hints and Comments:

Kentsucky sucks ass. They play in a shit conference and Calimari is a cheater and a fraud.  Manhattan will beat them in the first round.  That’s a lock.

Me? I will spend more time researching colleges for my bracket than I did my education and, I still won’t win. My bracket will look like Kim Kardashian’s vagina … torn up and filled with black ex’s.

Women are encouraged to play …. but not if you don’t know jack shit about college hoops. In other words, if you pick teams by, 1) the color of their uniforms, 2) which name sounds nicer, 3) or, you pick cute mascots (Hoosier) over ugly ones (Bulldogs) … then please just fuckin’ move along.  I might even delete your entry.

In the same vein, Sensetti is not encouraged to play …. as he will pick teams from Red states over Blue states.

flash … do NOT copy and paste last year’s picks (different teams this year)

Once again, Llpoh will assign his company accountant for the next three days to research and make the right picks …. and then fire him for fucking up.

Once again, Arizona has a good shot at winning it all ……. and then we’ll have to put up with SSS’s shit for the next year.

Peaceout won it all last year. He is not encouraged to play this year.

Rob in Nova Scotia came in dead last with a paltry 320 points … only 2% correct picks. It’s hard to fuck up like that even on purpose. We strongly encourage Rob to submit 3 entries.

Admin is also strongly encouraged to submit 3 entries …. as it will be a source of endless laughter and derision for the rest of us.

Actual picture of Admin and Rob collaborating on their picks.

 Good luck everyone. I hope MANY will play.

I'm right, you're wrong. Deal with it.

Good news.

My “SSSatTBP1” may be dead last with a miserable 370 points, but my “SSSatTBP2” has 930 points. Check it out, Stucky. I win. Heh.

So Stucky, I’m starting to get the impression you are happy Kentucky lost last night.

My plan to take 20th place worked flawlessly.

I soundly defeated Avalon. That is all that matters.

What a pitiful display that not one TBPer picked the national champion.

SSS places 42nd. Proof positive Super Sleuth is not Super Sleuthy. Admin just had a bad day in the brackets (cough).

I thought the highlight of the whole thread was having the actual picture of my belly button plastered all over the net. Thanks again to Stucky for his creative visual displays.

You lying sack of shit. I came in tied for 14th with my “SSSatTBP2” entry, which garnered 930 points and smashed the daylights out of Quinn’s 690 points on his entry. Since he elected to submit only one entry is his fucking problem. Here is what I posted on March 18th in the above thread.

“SSS says:

Stucky

I submitted two entries last night and may jump in for a third entry soon.”

Well, I did jump in with a third entry. Here is what YOU said in the instructions. “3) Fill Out Your Bracket(s) (up to 3 of them) by clicking on the big red “GET STARTED”.

I plan on suing the shit out of you for defaming me. I’ll see you in court, you sorry prick.

Heh.

Well just thought I’d wind this one up for another year. Last year was a hoot! I am going to sit down and do some research this year. Should be able to leave Stucky in the dust.

Fuck the DOOM it’s March!
