MetaTalk

As we do around these parts, it's time to make some brackets based on dubious distinctions and talk about a little basketball. [more inside]

Do you like basketball, and visualizations of powers of two? We have a Men's Tournament Challenge Group and a Women's Tournament Challenge Group! Do you prefer to accumulate statistics over the course of 162 contests? We have a Fantasy Baseball League! Do you like trivia? We're mid-season in LearnedLeague 80, and we have a Private Rundle!

It's that time again! Does anyone have the bandwidth & interest to set up Metafilter bracket contests for the men's and women's tournament? I wish I had the bandwidth to admin this year, but I don't. (Thank you!) [more inside]

Is anyone planning to do a MeFi March Madness pool? I'd like to participate (using my top-secret system, of course), but, with a sick three-month-old baby, I'd rather not be the admin. Anyone else interested?

I have a long standing league whose ranks have thinned to the point where we may have to bag the season, so I figured that I'd toss it out to the internet at semi-random to see if we could salvage this year (and get some awesome new blood moving forward). [more inside]

Any interest in a MF Fantasy Bball League this year? I missed last years and vowed to not miss the new thread. But there isn't one! Did it go horribly? I started a League in ESPN, if people want in I can send it around today and we draft tomorrow night perhaps or Monday? BASKETBALL! [more inside]

After some discussion here, it appears that A) there is a desire among MeFites to play fantasy basketball and B) although there may or may not be a league this year already, in either case there is clearly interest for fantasy basketball that is not satisfied. [more inside]

What time is it?

It's gametime. What's going down at the metafilter basketball league on yahoo, ID #95325 password "filtermeta"? For one, me -- to the floor, hard. Come and see the happy mondays play. Play basketball that is! We'll wheeze and puff so hard you'd think we were blowing down your house instead of trying to grab the rebounds of our weak 9 footers.

And the best part is that you don't have to get a tattoo of a ring of thorns around your arm like all the other athletes, unless you want to.

(12 teams in the league.) The draft begins whenever we start to fill up.
