Dear Gordon, "March Madness" is the hype name for the end of season college basketball tournaments. There are three in total: The NCAA, the NIT, and the Women's NCAA. (Is there a women's NIT? And I think there might be another men's tournament coming...?) Anyway, basketball is the one with the large orange ball.

Tips for getting your bracket right.

That article is hilariously accurate.

If anyone wants to do dtman brackets, that's cool. Prestige or money?

Would this be one of those things where you make some picks at the beginning and then don't have to touch it again until it's over and you see who won? Or is it like Fantasy Football where you have to do shit every week?

If the former, then count me in. Although I'll need basic instructions as to what forms need to be filled out to participate.

Fill it out by...Thursday at noon...and you're done.

If anyone wants to do it, setup a pool for us at Yahoo or ESPN or CBS...

Yeah, lots of folks had them winning. Don't forget they beat Miami this year.

So far, GT was my biggest bust (I didn't know about FGC then).

I was watching Kansas stomp UNC and there was ONE white guy on the floor. His name was an anagram for "whitey." Hah.
