I'm also 3-0 at this point. How come I can see my own score, but everyone else still shows as having 0 of 63 points? I've not used yahoo for this before -do they only update the group standings at the end of the day?
Got a tip for us?

Yeah...it looks like they're only updating group scores periodically. If you're really interested on how others are doing, you can click on their brackets to see their scores.
I went back last night and changed my Boston C/Texas Tech bracket, so I'm 2-1. That's what I get for listening to Dicky V.
Ouch. I got burned a few years ago in a family pool when I made a bunch of last minute changes. So now, I try not to make any changes once I fill out my bracket - I stick the paper copy in a drawer and don't look at it again until the games start.
Big wow...A&M seems to be recovering though. Butler has blown things open, Georgetown is wrapping things up, and Washington State took care of business, so I'm heading towards a 6-0 start. I need A&M to hang on though.
Edit: They've updated the group standings through the first three games...only 11 of our 28 are perfect so far.
Yup, same here. I really didn't pick many true upsets this year. I think I picked one or two 9 over 8, and, of course, Illinois (12) over Va Tech (5)
My final four is 3 #1s and a #2, which feels wrong based on past experience, but I really feel they did a good job seeding this tourney.
By my count, we've got eight people at 7-0 right now. But two of those picked GW over Vandy, so they're going to need something special to happen in order to stay perfect.
It's a real nail-biter.
I knew enough not to pick them to win, but they're embarrassing me and their other A-10 brethren (not to mention themselves).
woohoo, i'm one of those at 7-0 with vandy as my pick. We'll see how long that lasts though...
emw, our 1st round picks might be very similar. I have Illinois also as one of my upset, along with some 9's over 8. I heard last year that if you picked all the favorites in the first round, you'd have a pretty nice record.

Well last year they were seeded better where the top teams were better then the bottom. This year its slightly deceiving. Look for upsets tonight, Duke has a good chance to get knocked out.
You can pencil Vandy as a win.
Dang, I had a feeling Texas Tech would upset Boston College. Oh well, I'm not really much of a sports guy...
glad I picked Vanderbilt!
glad I picked Vanderbilt!
AKK!! that would kill my bracket, i have them winning it all...
looks okay so far.

I've got Marquette in this one, but I didn't fall for the fashionable VCU pick. OSU is cruising and UCLA should roll as well.
The last set of games is when things really start to get dicey for me. I've got Gonzaga over Indiana and X over BYU.
My brackets are something of a wreck.
Darn Davidson. Stupid Vanderbilt.
Am watching my Central Connecticut State Blue Devils get trounced by Ohio State. Sad, 'cause they did such a great job in the Northeast Conference, but can't match up with the speed and size of the Buckeyes.
They're playing their hearts out though -- playing tough.
Sports only exists metaphorically. You do your best, and it's never enough. Often in a radical way. A way to be at home, at least.

Ya, I couldn't resist going with 'zaga, but went for BYU's shooting even though it's risky business going with a Mountain West team. But I'm needing some upsets to start happening, soon. I have one #12 over a #5, and two #10s over #7s. Enough of this status quo, ho-hum stuff.
