Just 1-4 get to be #1s of their region. 5-8 gets to be #2 seeds and so on. Same thing here. The number 1 seeds are New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and Dallas. Only difference is, I didn't number them 1-16, I kept the 1-64 numbers. BUT, if it looks better I can change it to 1-16s. What do you think? Should I do that?
I wouldn't want you to put in more work than what's worth your while. I just thought the idea of "the No. 1 seed Houston goes down in the first round!" sounded a lot better than "the No. 4 seed Houston goes down!" No biggie though. Carry on.

Maybe they misread and though they were re-picking March Madness... Man, I wish I would've picked Connecticut.

Also pretty surprised how many votes SLC has over SD.
Waterfire? Italian Food?

New Orleans is a 12th seed? Man, I'm picking them to go on a run, they've got a weak region...

Well, I changed it to your suggestion. I think the new look looks good. Thanks

Oh, and to my surprise, Houston is a #2 seed. I know Houston IS the 4th largest city, correct??? BUT, according to the list I used to seed the metro areas, it list Dallas as the 4th largest metro area.

I'm thinking you're right. I think New Orleans might be poised to be a Cinderella team

I'm picking St. Louis to go to the Big Dance. But then again, my bracket is normally busted by 8:00 pm on the first day of the tourney....
