It’s just about that time of year again, when the sports-loving population checks out of work and tries, for a few Thursdays and Fridays, to follow the NCAA basketball tournament without their boss finding out. The boss knows, of course. But I’m sure that won’t stop most people from enjoying the five rounds of tournament action. For fans, the tourney centers on brackets, our blind predictions that are, for the most part, based on how each school fared while we were in college. Yahoo! has a bracket management application, and it’s available now for your BlackBerry
The mobile application works in the same manner as the desktop interface, so there won’t be much to figure out. You can create brackets and even enter into Yahoo’s $10,000 bracket contest. The best bracket takes home a $10,000 prize, and if you pick a perfect ballot you win a million. Fat chance of that, though. You know you’re going to pick the wrong 7-10 upset.
Once you make the picks, you can check out live scores — though since you’ll be watching from your computer at work you might not need that feature. You can also get new, analysis, and more from Yahoo’s writers. The selection show is on Sunday evening, and the tournament starts on Thursday.
You can download the Tourney Pick ‘Em application by going to m.yahoo.com/tourneypickem from your BlackBerry handset, or you can go to http://mobile.yahoo.com/tourneypickem for more information.
