I'm running the pool this year and some of the questions I'm fielding are ridiculous. I told one guy that the higher the number next to the team the better they are. I told them they could fill out 3 different brackets and one guy said "But the teams all the same?" Anyone else have basketball ignorant coworkers?

One of the most ignorant ones will win, guaranteed.
No doubt. This girl flipped a coin for every game and ended up with Louisville winning it all. Seriously?

I think those are the same people that bring a portable generator inside the house and run it and then wonder why they're getting drowsy.

What's the usual story? Sally the Secretary always picks the lowest seeds and lands in the top 12% going into the Sweet 16?

Someone at my job actually asked me " where's Uconn?" " I wanna pick them to go all the way". Bastard!!!

I work at school too, in first grade. (shocking and terrifying to many BY-ers I'm sure)

This is about my friend, not a coworker sadly. He is a very smart guy, MBA from Northeasern has a great job with UTC and watches every UConn game. Unfortunately he ALWAYS neglects to acknowledge there is any difference between schools like Colorado and Colorado St., U of M and MSU, KU and KSU, etc. Like he texted me last night "Colorado just beat Oriakhi!" and referred to "our win against Michigan" numerous times throughout the year. I call him on it every time and he still does it. We're hanging out later and I can't wait to hear about how La Salle just beat Kansas.
