Playoff bracket compe ion

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Bracket compe ion anyone?

You have to pick the entire playoff bracket before the first game on Saturday. 4pts for picking the winner of a series, 1pt bonus pt for also picking the length (but no points if you pick the wrong team, right length).

Most points gets a Spur/trophy (if Kori and LJ think that's appropriate?).

Here's a template to cut and paste for the first round - after that, you'll have to type it yourself!
