sure count me in....i would like to see how good my guessing game is..
On the set of Walker Texas Ranger Chuck Norris brought a dying lamb back to life by nuzzling it with his beard. As the onlookers gathered, the lamb sprang to life. Chuck Norris then roundhouse kicked it, killing it instantly. The lesson? The good Chuck giveth, and the good Chuck, he taketh away.

Joe,

Are you limiting each person to one entry in your group?  Or can we make up to the limit of 5 entries in your group?

I don't *THINK* I'm limiting anyone.  If I am, please let me know.  Better yet, let me know how to fix it!

Well, ESPN is limiting a person to 5 entries.  I guess I am asking if we can use all 5 entries in this same group.  You know to hedge our bets somewhat.  I will probably do 5 different brackets....so I was wondering whether to associate all 5 with our group or to only pick one bracket.

BBF,
I don't know the specifics of the Yahoo NCAA game, but I did play Survivor Football, and Pickem Football, and I would assume they work the same way.  That is assuming that this is a "Private Group", in Yahoo speak.
You can only have one bracket per Yahoo ID.  If you want to have 5 bracktes then you need to have 5 Yahoo ID's, and sign up in that private group 5 times, once for each ID.
A third-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the majority. A second-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the minority. A first-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking.

A quotation is a handy thing to have about, saving one the trouble of thinking for oneself.

Ziggy - the ESPN site allows for up to 5 brackets for each e-mail address/username.  I have already done 2 brackets but only associated the first one with Joe's group.  I will end up doing 5 brackets and was just wondering if all 5 should be associated with the same group.
