MARCH MADNESS 2010!

One thing i look forward to in sports is the March Madness Tournament. It's a time for my friends and i to get together, make brackets, and then rag on each other when our teams win. It's a fun time, and i usually have one party at my house to watch the games and a friend of mine always has people over to play some basketball of our own. This tournament so far has been nuts, their has been tons of upsets and wins that no one else thought would happen. The tournament starts with 64 teams. March madness only happens in Division I. But anyways, it starts with 64 teams and works it way down to 1. when it gets down to the last 16 that round is called the Sweet Sixteen. When 8 tems are left thats called the Elite Eight. The popular round that everyone talks about comes when there are only 4, that is called the Final Four.The Final Four right now consists of Duke ranked at number 1, West Virgina ranked at number 3, and Butler and Michigan State ranked at number 5. In a pool you have a bracket with the 64 teams and you pick the teams you think are going to win and the team you eventually think is going to win the tournament. All brackets are turned in to who ever is in charge of your pool and all you can do now and cheer and pray that your teams win. Strategy wise if your not familiar with the teams you would just want to either get help or pick from the seed(rankings) numbers next to the teams, or you can just look up stats for each team and do it that way. For me, since im a big ohio state fan, i pick ohio state to win the whole thing and just choose who their going to los to. But it is all up to you.
