I know even less about basketball than I do about football, and that's saying something.

Are the brackets out?
Last year we had a March madness pool in our house, where everyone kicked in a dollar, and the winner got the $4 pot. whoo! Teaching the kids to gamble. Maybe next I should take them over to the District when they legalize pot and buy them doobies. |

Dwellar parenting at its finest. Pete set up a bracket on espn for some meat world friends if anyone is desperate to create a bad habit.

What's a bracket? (Yes, I am ignorant - nevertheless ...)
I end up seeing snippets of quite a few March Madness games one way or another, and I do know the quarterfinals are on and semi-finals about to commence ... so, is it too late to set up what I presume is a prediction of how the last few rounds will go?

I'll pm you a link with group name and password. The bracket won't actually be filled until tomorrow. The various conference tournaments are what you've been seeing. I don't have any idea who is good this year, but this is a for fun bracket.

Just joined the group - thanks, Griff! I figure if the odds are that bad, I can just pick teams as I please and I'll have as good a chance of getting decent points as anybody. No gambling involved, but since the games are always on around our place it'll give me a little interest in the 'big dance'.

That's the way I look at it.

I know ZIP about any sports but I'm in a bracket at work and I entered the Billion Dollar one as well. All guesses.

The first time I ever did a bracket, I knew nothing. Zip. Nada. And going in to the final game, I was winning the entire office bracket worth about $500. But then my team lost the final game by one basket, and I got nothing.

And the other guy, after years of following the madness, charting the teams, spotting promising high school players, buying information sheets and 8x10 glossies with a paragraph on the back with the inside poop, wins by shit luck.

Heh ... doing all right so far
(Don't be a wet blanket now by telling me it's only the first round!)
