2012 March Madness Pool

Hey Folks,

It's the one time a year where I takeover the blog - March Madness.  This week is probably my favorite week of the year.  If you need anything from me this week, better ask before Thursday.  Last year we went to an Excel bracket format that seemed to work well for everybody, so we're going to do that again this year.  Just leave a comment here or e-mail me and I will send you a bracket right away.  Also, please feel free to pass this along to anybody else who might want to participate - all are welcome.  Like last year, there are 4 play-in games, starting on Tuesday night - the day after tomorrow.  Those games count for the same number of points as the first round games, so it is very important that you get your completed brackets in before the first game starts on Tuesday.  You might think that the play-in games don't really matter in terms of the whole bracket, but last year VCU was in a play-in game and they made it to the Final 4, so choose wisely, and make sure you get those brackets in soon!  Remember to provide the number of total points you think will be scored in the championship game for a tie-breaker.  As always, the winner will earn a tribute post like Alex, my dad, and Stina.  Below are a few videos from college basketball this year that may or may not assist in your bracket analysis.
