LAST CHANCE -- Coyoteblog / TSLAQ Bracket Challenge Closes Tomorrow Morning
In a tradition that goes back well over a decade on this blog, it's time for our 2019 just-for-fun bracket challenge. You know how it works -- fill out your bracket for the NCAA men's basketball tournament before noon Eastern this Thursday. First prize is lots of adulation and a 1 year free subscription to Coyoteblog. Second prize is a two-year subscription.
We are using the usual scoring method -- 1 point for each correct pick in the first round, then 2 points in the second round, then 4, 8, 16 and 32. This gives each round the same number of possible points. In addition, there is a bonus for each game you correctly pick an upset equal to the difference in the two seeds, so there is some incentive to take a bit of risk with your picks.
This year's theme is the ongoing battle of Tesla bulls and bears ($tsla and $tslaq respectively). You don't have to be part of that mess to play, but if you want to self-identify with a side, put it in your team name. If you need anonymity, you can use a fake name and make sure to check the box not to show your email address publicly.
It is totally free to play (I have paid the fees) and you can sign up and find our bracket here.
