WITHDRAW NOW…

Published by EKM under General

Should I go ahead and prepare my acceptance sppech for the Moore Cup? You all might as well just save face and give up now. Consider this my official demand for you to withdraw your brackets. Do it now and I won’t gloat too much.

Sincerely,
THE Dr. Emily K. Moore, J.D. Esq. (No, I don’t know what it all means, it’s just longer than Dwayne’s. Again, all that matters.)

Et tu, Brute?

Published by EKM under General

Becka - I read your reply to Dwayne about the whole math thing. I cannot believe you have turned on me. It is officially on. Remember Becka, Mom and Dad could still ground you for the things I know. Think carefully before going down this path…

IMPORTANT!!!

Published by EKM under General

What is important to note here is that I don’t really care that I’m not in first. All that matters is that I am BEATING Dwayne. It appears that he isn’t much competition for me in this. But really what did I expect? Dwayne, you have dropped your ice cream…

Post Opening Round Standings…

Published by Dwayne under Standings

Contrary to popular opinion (**BECCA**), it is not that I have been reluctant to post the standings.  I have been a bit too busy to keep up with the brackets lately….  So if anyone wants to manage the brackets (wins/losses) and let me know so I can post them, then email me!  I would be happy to pass that torch on to you!

Without further adieu:

  1.  Rebecca (25-8) [I think I just threw up in my mouth a little…]
  2.  Ernie  (24-9)
  3.  Emily (23-10) [okay…it is official….that was upchuck…]
  4. Jennifer (23-10)
  5. Melody (22-11)
  6. Dwayne Sr (21-12)
  7. Dwayne Jr (17-12)**

Today is the Day!!

Published by Dwayne under General

In about 2 hours and 40 minutes from the time of the typing of this post, the Madness begins!  Are you ready?  I have all the brackets, but I have been called in to teach a class at Boyce College this afternoon and will not get the brackets up on the website until this evening.  I will do it as soon as I can get to it when I get home from teaching.

Happy Madness!

Play-on Game Picks and Post-Game Standings

Published by Dwayne under Standings

The first game of the 2008 March Madness Season just ended. If you picked Mount St. Mary’s, then congrats! (Most of you picked Mount St. Mary’s as you can see below.)

The picks that I received for the Play-on Game were as follows:

  • Rebecca - Mount St. Mary’s
  • Jennifer - Mount St. Mary’s
  • Emily - Mount St. Mary’s
  • Melody - Coppin St.
  • Ernie - Mount St. Mary’s
  • Dwayne Sr. - Coppin St.
  • Eric - no pick

In the Junior Division, here are the picks that I have:

  • Dwayne Jr. - Coppin St.
  • Amberly - no pick
  • Mitchell - no pick

As I stated earlier, congrats if you picked Mount St. Mary’s…they won (69-60 over Coppin St.). So that leaves most of you with a win and a few of us with a loss. Below you will find the current standings headed into Thursday’s action. As always, it goes in order of most wins and that, if tied, by alphabet.

  1. Emily (1-0)
  2. Ernie (1-0)
  3. Jennifer (1-0)
  4. Rebecca (1-0)

The bracket is up!

Published by Dwayne under General

Well, the bracket is up!  You can view it here or download it here.  The first game, the “opening round game” this year, what was (and technically still is) the play-in game is Tuesday night.  Due to my class schedule, I will need to have everyone’s bracket emailed to me by Wednesday night at 8:00 pm so I can have the picks up and ready for action on Thursday.  I am in class all day Thursday so if I do not get them up Wednesday night late, I will not get them up in time.

Happy Madness….

Reminder

Published by Dwayne under General

As was announced last year, there will be the Moore Madness Junior Division, so all kids (kindergarten through 6th grade 8th grade - we want Emily to be happy!!) can compete against one another this year. Be sure to fill out your brackets! Also, brackets will come out tonight so check back here for a link to a bracket you can download, print, fill out, and return.

The Madness has begun…

UPDATE: Consider this a public retraction for the grievance that I have assaulted against Emily.  I have a typo above.  As I stated last year, the Junior Division would include those competitors from Kindergarten through 8th grade.  I inadvertently typed “6th grade” in the original post and am deeply sorry for any offense that this may have hurled upon the Moore Family.  Thanks ~ DHE

Need all the MooreMadness you can get?

Watch all of this year’s NCAA tournament online while you are way from your TV right on any computer with high-speed access.  Just sign up for a free account here and you are on your way.  Also notice, once you launch the player, the handy-little “boss button.”  I am trying to change mine to say “warden button.”  Go figure!
