Yeah, but you don't have to have much knowledge about the sport to have fun with it. You can approach it like it's a game, really. Because it is. They call it madness because the results are hardly ever what is expected.

Do you have to be a US citizen to participate?
Or is that something else?

Now, if it's okay for filthy Chileans to play I think why not give it a try.

I'm going to comment now so I get notifications when there's a posty.

TLDR: I'm in

Put me down brother. Why not? I’ve drifted away from brackets since Covid. From that moment on I never went back because of the legalizing of gambling in my state.
I was missing out tho. It’s nostalgic. I remember when it was just 64 teams and you’d have to wait until the paper came out Monday morning after selection Sunday to have your first bracket to fill out I was an only child and lived with my mother and she’d already have it cut for me before she left for work. Good ol days. Sooo many March memories.

Me too in. Actually 2008 was the last time I played the office brackets. Very very rusty.

Thanks Mal.

Cool. Lots of people who can start to explain to me what comes next - wait for Sunday and then fill the form?

Yep. Sunday night (eastern time) the brackets will fill in with names on the app. There will tons of data to look at with each matchup to help you make a decision. I know you are good with data and analytics so I think you'll actually do pretty well!

You have to design a program to filter your picks. Can you code lecroute? (I am kidding as I am pretty lost too but will poke around) I did watch a few games but am out of the loop, very far away from college these days and the rivalries. But this should be as easy as just picking boxes after a lot of confusion. No worries. I am at where you are at.
