sports lingo "bracket"

The year's at the spring
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn:
God's in his heaven—
All's right with the world! -
Oh, Nova....Not where I breathe, but where I love, I live...

This is a rack and pinion mounting bracket for the Ford Pinto:
“Thus it is that no cruelty whatsoever passes by without impact. Thus it is that we always pay dearly for chasing after what is cheap.”

I have no interest in college sports but even I have a bracket. If you work with more than 3 people and those people aren't cloistered nuns, you will be asked for your bracket.
I pick on intuition, team names, mascots, colors, and whim. Surprisingly, this actually works pretty well.

My eldest brother has absolutely, positively no interest in any sports, collegiate or otherwise. Several years ago, he put $50 in the office pool and literally picked at random. As one can imagine, his brackets looked like no one else's.Originally posted by Gingersnap View PostI have no interest in college sports but even I have a bracket.

He won the pool, something like $2500.
I've never played "brackets," mostly because I don't give a damn about basketball, but personally, I thought it was hilarious.It's been ten years since that lonely day I left you
In the morning rain, smoking gun in hand
Ten lonely years but how my heart, it still remembers

I've won twice. Overall. I've won levels a number of times. It's amusing. You throw $20 bucks in and have a lot of laughs or you win hundreds or thousands of bucks (depending on your pool). It's cheap fun. Like a lottery ticket.Originally posted by Adam View Post"Alexa, slaughter the fatted calf."Comment

I've always enjoyed it because it makes me interested in watching the playoffs. I didn't join a pool this year, therefore I watched absolutely none of the games.Not where I breathe, but where I love, I live...
