If anyone goes, the Imperial Palace (Ralphie's) usually takes these bets as
does NYNY.  Not sure about the rest.

Wide open odds, especially with the new 16 team format.  This might then
fall right into the same trend the NC$$ Men's hoops tournament where upsets
occur more often during the 1st and 3rd rounds because the underdog can
install and perfect a game plan 5 days prior, where the 2nd and 4th rounds
they only possess one day to prepare.  As such, teams with superior talent
and firepower win out more often in those rounds.

Might behoove someone like Charlie or Wayne to compute winning percentages
on nights after a previous win and which teams tank day two after winning
the night before.

'til then. Carpe Diem.

Make it a Great Day.
