Now that the first half of the Sweet Sixteen NCAA March Madness games have wrapped up, I thought I'd take the time to update you all on the standings in our 2011 Emilio Estevez #Losing Bracket Challenge office pool.
With San Diego State (my pick to win it all) getting knocked off by Connecticut and BYU losing in overtime, I by far took the biggest hit. After going 0-4 and getting zero points from last night's games, I stayed at 42 points and am now tied with Dave for last place.
As Dave and I duke it out for the Emilio Estevez #Losing trophy, it's a very close race at the top to take home some wine. Andrea catapulted into 1st place with 47 points after wins by both Florida and Connecticut.
But before Andrea gloats too much, there's a three-way tie for 2nd place between Nick, Mark and Kathleen. More importantly? With 46 points each, those three are just one point behind the current leader. In the middle of the pack, Shelly and Linel are tied for 5th place with 44 points each.
Now that wins are earning 5 points each, and increasing from here on out, the tournament is still anyone's games.
