The Bracket

I'm not a big basketball fan anymore. Having grown accustomed to the non-stop action of soccer, I can't bear watching the last few minutes of a basketball game with its intentional fouls and time-outs just when things get exciting. Still, I enjoy the NCAA tournament and usually take a good look at the bracket the day it comes out and occasionally play one of those pools where you try to predict the winner of each round. However, predicting who will be in the bracket is, I think, too much.
