But I did want to congratulate our 2nd round leaders very quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, we have a tie at the top between Carrie Viera and Adam Levine at 520 points.  They are followed closely by Kennedy Urban, Charlie Hodgson, Matt Richter, Ann Hawkins, and Carlie Reynolds &#8211; who are all just 10 points behind.  And 10 people are tied for 8th just 20 points behind.  We have a very tight race for this year&#8217;s tournament!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Upset Pool, Tom Forrest is leading with 213 points.  He is followed by Chris Franklin (211), Adam Levine (204), Taylor Early (200), and Debbe Evans (197).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lunatic is hanging around &#8211; he is in a large group tied at 25th &#8211; just 40 points behind.  With 36 people behind by the total of just one Sweet 16 game, it is still anyone&#8217;s game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But for those of you who already have lost your eventual champion, don&#8217;t despair.  The Second Chance Pool is available for you &#8211; and it is completely free.  Just login, enter who you think will win now that we know the sweet 16, and hope that your new picks will do the best!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good luck to everyone!!!!!  And the Lunatic now desperately needs to go back to sleep!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I might have to wait until the morning to send out an email to everyone.
