'16 & '17 Upset Contest Winner
All 48 members (as of 7 pm ET on March 15th) are listed, and everybody has 47-1 odds. You don't have to bet on yourself, and you don't even have to be among these 48 entrants to bet - anybody can wager on any of the participants.

Note - this will take several minutes to set up. Depending on how badly some St. Paddy's day beer is affecting my already poor typing skills. Second attempt - first one was hosed with 1 bad mouse-click. OK - it took 20 minutes

If you've been misidentified, or not identified, please post in this thread.

The vBet will NOT accept any other entrants. Bets that are made now get fixed at 47-1, and they cannot be changed, except by abandoning the whole thing and starting from scratch.

NOTE - if someone that enter the Yahoo picks after this point wins the Yahoo pool, the vBet will be settled by taking the highest score among the 48 entries listed in this vBet, and applying the tiebreaker if necessary.

The Yahoo pool currently does not allow you to see other people's picks. It is supposed to allow that on Thursday. If it allows it as of 11 am ET, there will be 1 hour to review other picks and place money on them in this vBet, since this bet doesn't close until 1 hour after the first tipoff.

On one side I have entered a contest mainly determined by luck.

On the other side I could bet on everyone else to win and do no worse than break even.

The only way I could lose is if I win.

We are way into theoretical physics at this point. The atmosphere could very well ignite if I set these two forces of bad luck against each other in a bet.

All in on Buckyle. He has a beard and was probably buttered up when he made his picks.
