First — DON’T PANIC.
The NCAA has finally figured out a decent nomenclature for its play-in games, and those games — the First Four — have started.
But if you’ve been doing this for a while, you’ll recall that the play-in games — or First Four, or whatever — never play a part in Thirteenth Practically Annual Uncle Crappy NCAA Final Four Challenge (Brought To You By Piper’s Pub).
What do I need? An entry, from you, by noon Thursday. Follow these helpful formatting suggestions and you’ll be fine.
We’ll have to do something a little differently this year as well. Mrs. Crappy and I will be on the road on Thursday, and that’s going to make it tough to assemble and post the usually lengthy roundup of our entries. What I will do is make sure I post my entries and those of Mrs. Crappy — if she chooses to participate — here before the games begin. Transparency and all that.
And remember, boys and girls — there isn’t an easier hoops pool out there, and you — yes, you — could win $50 to spend as you please at Piper’s Pub.
Ok, I have some time to work on this:
Michigan v Houston
Houston 133 total points
Thank you (and Piper’s Pub) for doing this again. I look forward to it every year.
