So, March Madness is just around the corner. Conference tournaments will be wrapping up this week. The NCAA tournament selection will be this Sunday evening.

So, I want to open up a bracket challenge for the CF Singles Forum. Basicly, I have created a league on yahoo for us to have fun and challenge each other.

Here is how it goes:

1. Sign up for a new account or log into yahoo with your pre-existing account. It is 100% free to do so. Bonus, you can use it to play games and such as well with other people.

2. Go to the sports tab. From there, choose the college basketball tourney pick'em.

3. Choose to join a private league. The name of the league is CF Forum Singles
The info you will need to join is this:
[SIZE=-1]Group ID#: 64402
Password: coachisawesome

4. Fill out your bracket. This must be done prior to tip-off of the first game on Thursday. You can sign up now, but brackets will not be able to be filled out until Sunday night with the field is set.

5. We can discuss an "entry fee" to the tournament if you would like. I was thinking 100 blessings to enter, winner gets 50%, 2nd place 30%, 3rd place 20%.

This is all for fun. Even if you don't know much about hoops, join us. Pick teams based on whether or not you like the color of the uniforms or the mascot of the school if you don't know any other thing about the teams.

I hope you guys will join me. If no one wants to do an entry fee, then we can do it for bragging rights only. Winner get to be the champ for an entire year!

Let me know what you guys think.

Coach

I'm never goood at picking winners in sports but I'm game regardless of entry fee or not.

*rolls eyes at flnativegrl.

I won a bracket at the bar I was at. All the girls there ranked the guys in "who would win in a fight" and I just edged out this guy Ty. He was alot bigger than me, but the rationale was, after that many rounds I'd still have the stanima to throw down.

We had one for the ladies too. not about fighting though.

Instead of picking on me - you could teach me how to play this dumb game.


nah, this is more fun.

actually, 64 teams will be seeded.

32 games, you pick who you think will win each, then it's down to 16 games, pick again,

then you have 8 games containing the "sweet 16"

then four games with the "great 8"

Final Four

then the championship game.

you just keep picking winners and narrowing it down until you have one team left.

Bracketville: Stay as long as you can...

Hmmm...you're much nicer to me when I bite you. I'll have to keep that in mind.

So - this bracket...I just pick any random name my brain conjurs up?

yes, flnative, you can name it anything you want.

You have never filled out an NCAA tournament bracket before?

That actually surprises me a bit.

Thanks Coach - that was the part I couldn't figure out.

This is my first time doing something like this - surprising, I know, for a girl as cool as I am.

That means you'll probably win, that's how it always seems to work out.
