    Basketball? Is that a team sport?

    This certainly hasn't stirred much interest...I can't believe that out of all the people here that there aren't a few more that wanna do a tourney bracket.

    You might have a limited sample in FHOP. There's quite a few that never set foot outside of FHOPol and quite a few that never set foot inside of any of Fred's houses for any reason.

    Even though it goes against the rules, you might get a few more bites on the Main Forum.

    I'm afraid to even consider asking if there's interest in the Women's Tournament.

    Doc......I already entered my tournament picks on your site....living in Baton Rouge affords me the opportunity to go to the first and second rounds this weekend of the women's basketball play-offs being hosted here at the PMAC. LSU ladies (6 seed) play the 11 seed Green Bay in the first session on Sunday evening.

    I have grown to really like basketball.....it's inside, there's a band, cheerleaders and lots of action!!

    Thanks guys, glad to have a little interest. I'll try to find some sort of Prius related prize for the winner.

    Can't access the brackets from work...and now I'm a little worried about my pick of UConn with their injured star. Too late now.
