March Madness Contest
Hey peeps. I know we are still three weeks away from the tourney but I can't wait. I love March Madness. Anyway, I'm setting up a March Madness contest for all who are interested. The contest will run through yahoo. When the brackets are up you simply pick your teams and yahoo will do the rest. Until then you can get yourself set up on the site. Please use the same name you have on here so it will be easy to know who you are.
Fantasy on Yahoo! Sports - News, Scores, Standings, Rumors, Fantasy Games
Sign up for Tournament Pick'em '08 on the right hand side of the page. (you will have to sign up with yahoo if you don't already have an account).
password: ff
group id: 11273
I will put 5000 points in the pot for every person who joins up to 100k.
1st 75%
2nd 20%
3rd 5%
Hope you join.

Signed up!
I did a March Madness thing with FF last year, Bayouboy, but this is MUCH better. Thankfully this will be the real bracket picking thing.

Thanks in advance.

Hey Bayou I am trying to sign up, but it won't let me. It says wrong password or something.
EDIT: It says that private group doesn't exist

Nah, you're not being dumb. I didn't know what to put as bracket name either. I just put T-Bone and went from there.
Just put CounterPuncher in the Bracket Name field.
bayou already named the league Fight Forum so you don't have to put that anywhere.

Get signed up guys. Yahoo will probably have the brackets set by tonight.
By the way if anyone picks the final four exactly I'll double the points for the winner. If two people do it (very unlikely) we'll have some sort of tie breaker.

Alright guys...yahoo has the brackets up so be sure to get your picks in by the deadline. There is even a cool feature that breaks down each team to help you make your pick.

I don't watch basketball except for the tournament and only if its a good game and nothing else on, but screw it I get in on it. Is that $5mil thing legit? If so thats even more reason to get involved. This way I will have more of a reason to watch.
