KIt's tough out there or NCAA Basketball fans. There's really no place online you can fill out a bracket for the chance to win prizes. Nope. Barely any. Good luck finding them.

So, I guess that makes this the best thing that's ever happened to you. The TNIAAM NCAA Tournament Bracket Challenge COMMENCES!

Over at Yahoo! I've created a group called TNIAAM Bracket Challenge. Head over there and add your bracket to enter. The group ID# is 165487 and the password is: mookiejones

As for why you should enter...here's where it gets interesting. There will be prizes. Oh yes, there will be prizes.

As for 1st Place, the winner of the Bracket Challenge will win a motherlode of awesome Cuse-related goodies, including:

2. A personalized drawing of the winner in a Syracuse basketball uniform by Mike Borkowski
3. A pastel drawing of the Syracuse player/coach of your choice, courtesy of CQuijano Art (like this or this).
4. A signed copy of How to Fail: The Self-Hurt Guide by Syracuse grad Aaron Goldfarb

Boom goes the Cuse-namite.

Any questions, let me know. Otherwise just get your entry in before Thursday's games and check the scoring rules. We'll deal with any kind of tie-breakers as we get there. Good luck!
