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.

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.

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)
Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.
beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs
packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)
Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.
Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”
packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b
Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with
packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie
beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.
Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst
Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck
beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now
beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me
Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.
Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell
packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies
Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol
Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?
beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
