Obviously, everyone is tied with zero points at the moment. But, if you’re in the pool, please take a the standings page and/or the bracket index, look at your entry (click the “Entry Name” header column to sort alphabetically — for some reason it’s not doing that automatically, ugh), and make sure there aren’t any problems. Thanks!
The stuff I entered in the text fields is showing up above the bracket, but there must be a character limit because the lines are truncated. Is that supposed to be there at all, or just in the “About the participants” page or whatever it’s called that isn’t up yet?
Unrelated point/rant/complaint: My cable provider is offering a free preview of CBS College Sports. But instead of showing nonstop games, most of the time is being taken up by talking heads. WTF?? This does not persuade me to get the channel at all.
