Gentlemen*, 

Just like last year, the big dance is upon us...and just like last year, it is the time of year when I watch my first full game of college basketball and act like I've been following these teams all year long. That's right. It's March Madness baby. And Bryce has his dancing shoes on.

I want you all to think long and hard about the following statement: Jordan (or is it Elizabeth) is the defending champion. That's right. You got beat last year. 

Here's the deal. If you want to fill out a bracket by Thursday afternoon, we'll do a little payout like last year that's goes a little something like this: 

1st place (by points) - 80% of the pot
2nd place (by points) - 10% of the pot
3rd place (by most wins in the first round) - 10% of the pot

It's $10 to play. Transfer to me via PayPal (it's free) at this email address, or just pay me the next time you see me. 

Password: eastie

Let me know if you're in! You will also see that I've included the one and only Nathan Chud in this email. He cried on my shoulder last week about wanting to play with us, so I thought I'd like let him in. He's in Alaska, guys. They don't even have TV there, so he's no threat.

Later Gents*,
Joel

*Just like last year, this group is also for the lady folk. Just forward my email on to your lady friend if you think she'd enjoy dancing with me.

Reminder: 2 days and counting... get your picks in, yo!  I wanna watch together at Eddie C's with cheap brews in hand.

Message from Mr. Chud that seemed to not go through to the group: 

To be fair, I cried on Joel's shoulder because the University of Alaska Seawolves didn't make it to the dance this year... and all because their mascot is made up and they don't have a basketball team.  Nobody cares about Alaska but me.  

In other news, it will be an honor to take all your money.  Rock Chalk.  And go Celtics (that's for Schulz).  

Much Chud love

Too many juicy Bryce quotes to repeat here.

And then, a voice in the wilderness... Chud? Is that you?

I'm in.

Hey ballers... so as of now, we got me, my lady, Chud, and Robby. LAME. You got 16 hours before tip-off of game 1 (Thursday at about noon). 

Schulz?  Schnittjer? Holt? Sheppard? Certainly these are ballers, no?
