\nYahoo! Tournament Pick’em<\/a>
\nGroup: Bloggers’ Mad Dance II (ID# 1766 for Yahoo! only)<\/b>
\nPassword: ewm<\/b>
\nSet your picks after bracket assignments on March 13.
\nSign up before the start of round one March 17.<\/p>\n

I’ve set up a tournament group at Yahoo! (men’s tourney). You are invited to join the
\n Bloggers’ Mad Dance II (ID# 1766 for Yahoo! only). It’s all free, no $ involved. <\/b>The password is ewm<\/b>. Shoot me an email if you have any questions:
\n dmueller at earthwidemoth dot com. All are welcome, bloggers and non-bloggers alike.
\n The group will hold 50 people. At stake, pride and infamy, all of which went
\n the way of the pool’s last winner, dr. fabulous, a year ago.  <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For whatever it’s worth, I set up a women’s tourney bracket last year and it fizzled with just two sign-ups, so I’m not bothering this year.  Build one of your own and let me know about it, though, and I’ll throw a set of picks in the mix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
