So I made this excel spreadsheet with drop down menus so you can pick your teams pretty easily. I didn't go with Yahoo or CBS sportsline because not everyone has a user name at those places and I want to be able to get these things back ASAP.
If you want to do it here is what you need to do:
1. Download the bracket here.
2. Fill it out by clicking on the area where the two team names populate.
3. Save the bracket with the your name in the name of the excel spread sheet (ex: the_daymonster_bracket.xls)
4. Email it to the.daymonster@gmail.com
5. I will compile the brackets, turn them into PDFs and post them so everyone can see everyones picks.
6. I will keep the blog updated with the current standings and scores.
7. No entry fee it's just for bragging rights. Possible AH! Tournament Pick'em Blog Trophy.
The scoring is pretty straight forward and is located on the excel spread sheet bracket in more detail. As it gets deeper into the rounds, the worth of that round double. For example: 1st round, 1pt. 2nd round, 2 pts. 3rd round 4 pts... etc. Upsets are given a bonus of the seed difference multiplied by the round's worth. In the first round if a 15 seed beats a 2 seed they get 13 points, as opposed to just 1 point if you pick the two seed to win. These upset bonuses only count in the first two rounds.
Please, please fill it out as soon as you can, since there is no cash prize there is no reason to cheat.

ahh, try this
I got it, I made it into a bracket. There was one mistake though. It was Marquette vs. Kentucky, you put down the "8" seed. Marquette is 6 and Kentucky is 11. I assumed you meant "6" so I put down Marquette. Let me know if I was wrong.
Soup, you forgot one... drake or uconn?
Also, tough break on the xavier final four pick. I had georgia beating them. woo!
uconn
can anyone remember the current blogpoint totals?
yeah daymonster, you got it right
I think I have 26
Did I have UNC as the national champions in the bracket I sent in? If so I would like to change my national champion to Kansas.
haha, why did I have winthrop going to the sweet 16?
