As we promised last week, we've got something special going on. Steve's Word has created a NCAA March Madness bracket pool and you are all cordially invited to come to the big dance with us, completely FREE of charge. Simply Click the link below, fill in your name and such and you're ready to go. Make your picks, push save, and then kick back and start rooting for teams you never even heard of before.
http://stevesword.mayhem.
The password for our pool is: stevesword.
The deadline to enter is Noon EST on Thursday.
Once again, first prize is $100 iTunes Coupon and second prize is $25 iTunes Coupon. Third place gets you your Steve's Word gear of choice plus Tim's old cell phone (please recycle responsibly). As well, since we can't make anything too simple, an extra $25 iTunes Coupon goes to the person who comes up with the best "method to their madness" i.e. the method by which they have made their picks. Some people choose based on color, others choose by nickname. And there are those who choose by most handsome coach. Most people just straight up guess. Let us know what method you've used by leaving a comment here, emailing info@stevesword.com or posting to the bracket's message board.
What on earth are you still reading this for? There's a chance for free money out there, go get it! And while you're at it, why not tell all your friends? We'll make you this promise: if more than fifty people are in the pool, all prizes double. Huh? How's that for incentive?

Done and done. I didn't think about my picks AT ALL. Let's party.

I pretty much made my picks based solely on the beer pong skills of the people I know who went to that college.

Wow, that's pretty good Kramer. I picked mine based on the school's county or municipality unemployment percentage. These figures are changing day by day, so it'll come down to the wire for me.

Let's do this thing. I gotta tell you, it was really heartbreaking choosing between UNC and Texas there in the semis. Thanks a lot, Stevesword, you bastards.

I know nothing about this sport, but I'm kind of psychic so I think I'll do pretty well.

Greetings to all who are not Matt. My name is Scott. My picks are in and are all "guaranteed locks". I have Louisville knocking off Oklahoma to cut down the nets. My one question to you all is: is either team any good at all?

Easy: alphabetical, except when I chose not to be alphabetical.

Mine was chosen by State Animal (The Fiercest from each state's categories of a) Wildlife Animal l, b) Marine Animal, or c) Domestic Animal).
If schools from the same state went against each other (or states with the same animal), the school's mascots were added to the fight- this only happened once with a Grizzly and a Matador VS. a Grizzly and a Bruin.
My Final Four consists of a Bison (Kansas) vs. Sperm Whale (Connecticut) and a Grizzly (UCLA) vs. Orca (Gonzaga). Sperm Whale destroys all in the end... defeating Orca.
