It’s that time of year again when we take a step away from books and babies and focus on third most important B word in the English language.

If you live somewhere on planet Earth, you know that the brackets have been announced. Which means, of course, it’s time to make your picks and join the our pool. As always, the prize is a one-year subscription. This year, however the winner may choose between a year of Idiots’Books or Bobbledy Books.

Here’s the link to the ESPN Bracket Challenge game. If you’ve never played before, you’ll have to CREATE AN ENTRY. If you’re a veteran, just log in. Then make your picks and then click the button to CREATE OR JOIN A GROUP. You’ll be given an option to search for our group name, which is Idiots’Hoopla.

You have until noon on Thursday to make your picks.

That’s all there is to it. Go do right by the gods of basketball.
