FFR Pick'Em: March Madness Edition

[igotrhythm]

Since T-Force's version of this even tends to go over well enough, I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon.

It's like bracket challenges, but easier. Round by round is gonna be a pain to keep up, so we're going to do this the classic way.

The rules are simple: You pick who you think is going to win each of the 67 games to be played, and at the end, whoever has the most correct picks is the winner!

Here's the bracket if you need help knowing who's playing whom: http://www.cbssports.com/collegebask...s/viewable_men

As for listing your picks...it's easy! Simply bold who you think is going to win each game. Picks for all games after the first round must use your picks from previous rounds, and NO EDITS.

As for credits, I have about 250K in my pocket, so I'll kick this off with 100K. As always, donations are encouraged.

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for: My picks!
