So was anyone a victim of the SFP or SMFP tonight???
It's an acronym my uncle and I came up with today after watching 12 hours of basketball. SFP stands for Stupid Fucking Pick...as in "I had LSU going into my Sweet 16, boy that was a SFP!". Or an even worse fate the SMFP...the Stupid Mother Fucking Pick. As in "I picked Kansas to play Syracuse in the Final 4, God damn that was a SMFP!".

It can also be used as an adjective as in "Kansas is your national champ...dude, your bracket is SMFP'd!"

so was anyone SMFP'd tonight?

1. I believe I had Kansas and Syracuse both in the Sweet 16

I had LSU winning but later being beat by Arizona. I am now 23/32, could be worse but yesterday was a better day, I should have never picked GWU just because I wanted to send a little message to them that hey I am gonna go to ya someday so ya better win.

4. Me too...
but I figure just about everyone else had them in at least the sweet 16, so no worries there. My dad picked Kansas to win it all, and picked Syracuse to beat Duke (ha ha tool!). His pool is soooo SMFP'd!

6. I'm 23-9...
I have all my Final 4's and elite 8's but I lost three Sweet 16's. Unfortunately there are 140 people in this pool so the odds aren't in my favor. Someone is looking at an $840 prize for first place!

Didn't see either one of those coming.
