Hopski Goes A Blogging

It has been awhile since The Hopski introduced any technological improvements, so we'll see how well this is received.  I do think it may be a more reliable way to keep the Hopski public informed and updated during March Madness (emails tend to get blocked!).  More so, I think it will allow the Hopski diehards to post comments, etc…. after each update.  In turn, that should allow for some public debate and fun!  

I do not think that I can include attachments here, so you will still need to go to http://www.mysideline.com/u/2588/collegebbmens/default.htm in order to access standings and reports.  I will also try and post these blog updates there (though note - mysideline.com allows only .txt file posting, so this blog will allow me to revert to coloring, etc… as in the early days.

It is Wednesday, so one day remains to enter the 2014 Hopski International March Madness Pool.

Please note some early "returns":


  • If you pay via paypal, PLEASE choose "payment to a friend or family" so paypal does not deduct fees from the Hopski Payout Pool;
  • ALSO, if paying by paypal, DO NOT mention anything regarding the pool, March Madness, NCAA, etc….  Email me if it is not clear from the payee for what entry the payment covers;
  • Amazon Payments is a preferred means of payment as I do not worry about Amazon freezing my account as paypal did a few years back;
  • Entry names are definitely improved over recent years, though I am not sure I see any that make me do summersaults just yet!;
  • 43 entries have been received, which is normal for this point.  I expect the pool to reach 130 to 150 entries;
You can find the link to this blog at the top of the Pool Website at mysideline.com or you can even RSS it.

Adios!
