This is why I stopped picking brackets, it's always a crapshoot

Luckily you don't have to be perfect- just better than the people you're competing against.

I think the most shocking thing is that there are only 63k brackets under ESPN. Many people do multiple so the number of participants is less than that substantially. I figured ESPNs bracket pool would be in the millions.
ETA: My reading comprehension sucks. Misread the 63k as total and not just a bunch of 0/16 brackets

I never understand why people have stances like these. It's supposed to be fun.

How the hell does one pick that badly? Even if you tried to create a bad bracket on purpose for some reason it would be hard to go 0/16 with all the upsets

Without looking at the board, i feel going straight 13, 14, 15, and 16 seeds is a strong push for 0/16 every year.

Sorry your participation trophy got lost in the mail.

Well that's gonna happen when the #1 overall seed bombs out.

No way someone could have gotten this right.

Imagine having no picks wrong but Baltimore county and you're in a contest with a big prize like buffet offered. a million.
Would stay with you a long time. At least it wasn't last shot.
