I am challenging you to play Tournament Challenge on ESPN.com with the other Spawners. Get in on the excitement of this year’s tournament. Extra Spawn points for anyone that picks Michigan beyond the first round. You must fill out a bracket before the games start.You will need to use (or create) an ESPN.com username. It is easy and free. Let me know if you run into any issues.

Our group name: Spawn of MZone
Please leave a comment with your entry name (if it differs from who we know you as here) so we know who the heck you are.
(HT: WLA for the Hernan Cortez quote idea for my image. Also, here is a link to the story behind the quote.)

Biggio30007 is my son. I needed him to test how easy it was to get signed up for ESPN.
Since I do not know much Spanish, I put this phrase into an internet translater that I use and got the result "It burns the boats". I am not sure what this means.
Another interesting fact I found on wikipedia was that "after he overthrew the Aztec empire, Cortés was awarded the title of Marqués del Valle de Oaxaca, while the more prestigious title of Viceroy was given to a high-ranking nobleman, Antonio de Mendoza." Just wondering if he is any relation to Dayana??? Is this coincedence? I think not.
I will fill out my brackets either this evening or tomorrow morning. I used to have an existing epsn account but cant remember it or the pw for the life of me and emails have changed so i will be making a new one.
I've added a link to the story I read about the quote from the Free Press.
And yes, anything that is related to Dayana is good in my book. I am headed to the Venezuela/Puerto Rico game in a couple of minutes.

Just create another one. It takes about 2 minutes.
Andy..... thanks for that addition. I had missed that in the Free Press. Now it makes sense.
Title Nine is in
The hamster is in. Are we only doing one each?
in as chuckwagn27
Spawn points for M past the second round? I just honestly couldn't put them past Oklahoma. Who I have to win it all btw. They suffer against teams with a strong big man and Oklahoma has just that.

I may not be able to get in since I cannot access this from work and will not be home prior to the play in game tonight. I really suck at this kind of thing anyway so it probably does not matter but it would be fun to be a part of with the Spawn group. I will try when I get home but it may be too late.
I'm hail_hail.
Game on!
Bob it looks like you have until Thursday March 19th. That is supposedly when Tournament Challenge locks so I would suspect you have until then to get an entry in. Make it happen!
I was checking this out late last night and set up my account. I will go in tonight and flip a coin for my picks. I tend to be bad at these kind of things because I always think Michigan will do better than I should and also have trouble picking MSU or tuos to win anything.
Damn Illinois screwed me so far. I gotta say some of you who picked MI to win the championship definitely have loyal fandom. Not so much on the trying to win 10k dollars though or whatever the TC is up to now.
Tied for 2nd after day 1.
