Can someone explain why this is important? I don't get it. You're filling out a freaking chart. Betting purposes? Pure geeky, unathletic thrill? someone explain it in the article. 66.41.59.162 00:42, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

It's the single biggest gambling event in the United States in terms of the total number of people who participate. That's notable.66.108.56.98 05:05, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

It's not. It's a stupid non-word created by ESPN. This article should be deleted. -- TexasDawg (talk) 19:23, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Added the Generalize tag, the term Bracketology has come to mean more than just college basketball. The bracketology project which compares everything to everything has made the term become more broad. BT14 13:52, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External links

I've been cracking down lately on the addition of external links to the article, and just removed some others that may have been there for a while. I kept the ones that seemed at least a first glance to assert some notability, that they aren't merely some fan's attempt to throw his hat into the proverbial ring. I'm not sure we really need to list any, considering how the first link is to a site that lists 45 projected brackets from different sites. Thoughts? --Maxamegalon2000 22:37, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
