Last year we had an off-site bracket game. Lot of fun, we doing it again?

I am still trying to sign up for the [SDMB Yahoo bracket from the other thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=718462), but it is a bit of a pain. While I wait to iron out the kinks, I went ahead and set up another SDMB bracket over at ESPN.

For folks that are not already ESPN members, you will need to sign up. Its a pretty fast and standard process, however, so there should not be any problems. The ESPN bracket is using Traditional scoring times 10 (so 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320 instead of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32). Hopefully some of the folks having trouble with Yahoo can hop on over to the ESPN one.

I will ask **Shoeless** if he minds me hijacking the other thread for folks later.
