    March Madness
    just reading in my book "The Odds" by Millman this afternoon... thought this was interesting....

    15% of the nations workforce completes at least 1 bracket for their at work office pool's for the ncaa tourney every year.

    on avg, 14 mins is spent filling out the brackets.

    taking the avg American hourly salary of 13.53.... then for any given year Americans are paid 32.2 millions dollars to be filling out brackets

        Aren't you happy there is no college football bracket? Can you imagine how many hours would have been lost if there was a college football playoff system?
