"pack93z""Rockmolder""longtimefan"for those curious, its the NCCA basketball tournament challenge
Ok, in that case, I think I won't join in. I only know 5 NBA teams and one with player, let alone any NCAA ones.
Here is the thing, there is plenty of breakdowns on sites like CNNSI, ESPN, Fox, Yahoo.. etc... to be honest, most people know very little about most of the teams..
Not to mention, seeding numbers will help you along.. it is actually quite fun. Join along and have fun with it... second biggest american sporting event behind the Superbowl IMO.
Well, ok, I'll join in if you want me to, but only because I haven't seen you give any bad advice so far. :p
Sounds like fun when I eventually get the hang of it.

"Cheesey""Packers_Finland"I don't know squat about college basketball, but I'm in.
I know even LESS then that.
These are the only "brackets" i know....... [ ].........do i win????
I mean, I am an semi-fan of the NBA, and know some prospects that could enter the draft next year, and which teams they play in. But really, that's all I know.

When in doubt, pick the higher seed in the bracket...
For a read on how the tourney works here....
So between selection Sunday (where the backets are released to the public) and before the first day of the tourney.. there will be a bracket posted from here on one of the website, similar to Fantasy Football. Pick your winners from each game in each round..
You get one point for every win in the first round, and depending on the format, you get more points for each correct pick in later rounds.. example, some brackets you get 2 points for every correct selection in the second round... and so on...
Every year some "Cinderella" team knocks out a heavyweight and blows up the brackets.. thus ending your bid in cases.. it is called "March Madness" for a reason.
It is all in fun.. you will do okay..

I'm out.
I seriously couldn't name five active b-ball players.
Scottie Pippen is still playing, isn't he? If not, I know LeBron James.
That's it.
Oh wait.
That tall Chinese guy.
That's Yao Ming, right? OK, almost up to 5.
