I reckon I'm in. I just know I'll botch it one week and forget to do my pick. And then I'll be pissed because I signed up just to donate $10 to whoever the winner ends up being. But ok. Fine.
Then don't mess up? Plan out your picks ahead of time, and then just check back in each week to post your pick. I'll even remind you each week via text to submit your pick. Here, gimme your wife's number too, just in case I can't get a hold of you in time.
 
THAT is how you start the trash talking for this bish.

I'm going to have to spend some time on Urban Dictionary to decipher your poasts. Or can you send me a decoder ring or something?
I thought you were country? You don't have any trucker friends? A truck lizard (or lot lizard) is a specific category of prostitute that frequents truck stops and 'services' truckers.

Nah, we just call them whores around here. But I like truck lizard. Dresses it up a bit.

Gives them an air of fanciness so they can charge more I'd imagine, lol. Truckers have their own culture.........I can't even imagine.

A guy who worked for us for like seven years finally left us to get his CDL and pursue his dream of being a truck driver. His dad was a truck driver and this guy always wanted to do that one day. He told me that when he was a kid, his dad would take him on the road with him when he was making a delivery. He said he saw truck lizards go from truck cab to truck cab without even washing their hands or face between visits. Disgusting lol.

That's a big 10-4.

We need to put the hammer down and get this going. However, I'm a bit worried about any Smokeys on the board that might want to haul us in for gambling. My little woman wouldn't like it if I don't make it back to my stack of bricks tonight. 3s and 8s fellas.
 
The only detail that has me a little confused is the picking two teams in one weekend part.
There's 13 weeks of the regular season (this contest only runs the 13 weeks of the regular season) and there's 14 ACC teams. That means there's one more team than number of weeks. Therefore, during one of the 13 weeks of this competition....on a week of your choosing, you must "double up" and pick two schools that week.

Example, maybe you want to double up in Week 1 so you pick NC State (vs. William & Mary) and you pick Syracuse (Colgate). If both those teams wins, then you advance to week 2, and from there on out you pick one and only one school for the remainder of the competition.

So, during one and only one week of the competition, you must pick two teams to win. The other 12 weeks, you pick one team.

ok, ok... got it. Thank you
 
This is pretty good because it requires a wee-bit more thought process.
Oh definitely. You really gotta chart this stuff out, but then your work isn't done. You have to keep coming back and tweaking your picks because teams are going to better and/or worse than you originally thought.
 
Hypothetical here:

Everyone but 2 of us picks VT to beat Liberty, and they lose... then only 2 people advance?
