I'm not certain what this thread is about or what I'm supposed to do, but it seems like we it is a tournament brackets game that precedes the actual tournament. If so, then here are my predictions of what this diverse and often wacky group will pick. Sorry to not include names, but I couldn't find an easy way to cut and paste all of them, so I mostly used numbers.

I have:

Myself and Cyclonsin tied at 48/60. We both have Carlin winning it all so unless there is a surge in the final voting Cyclonsin will likely have the tie breaker edge.

this is 3-6

500 42/60
Ron 40/60
Cycsk 36/60
HoopsTournament 35/60

Actually after looking at how scoring for these go I had 1 better in 1st round and @Cyclonsin had 1 better in a later round where points should be more. So @Cyclonsin is the CF Stand-up Champ.
