The brackets are so important around here that the Louisville Courier-Journal (newspaper) prints a "suitable for copying" version of the brackets so everyone can have an office pool. This is serious business. One year I came in 5th out of several hundred people because I let my (future at the time) son-in-law fill it out for me. All the guys in the entire company were upset that mostly women had the most points for picking winners. If you pretty much go with the Vegas odds or just the seeding, you can do pretty well. Most of the guys tried to pick the upsets. (Picking an upset early on can really mess up your chance for points all the way through.)

In case some of you folks across the pond are wondering what this is all about, here is a printable bracket to fill in who you think will win each basketball game. Notice the number ONE seeds! (Go Big Blue!)
