TOURNAMENT NEWS
Congrats to Macon Thompson for winning the Thompson pool! This is his first win since before 2001 and given his role in starting this whole thing, very historic.

All that being said, i need to acknowledge Reeves Davis who had as many points as Macon, and picked the winner, but by the tiebreaks in place finishes second (picking the winner was not a tiebreak, macon won on the second tiebreak which was most teams in the sweet sixteen). Based on this, i think i will change the rules a bit for next year and make thwe tiebreaks as below.

TOURNAMENT RULES
The rules and scoring are simple. Points are given based on round (1,2,4,8,12,16) with underdogs being ten seeds or less getting extra points (2,4,6,8,10,12). The first tiebreaker is most teams in the final four, second tiebreaker is most teams in the sweet sixteen, and last tiebreaker is total points in the final game. if that does not decide it we will put the winners in a room with Moose and the first person he licks will be declared the winner.
TOURNAMENT PRIZES
Welcome to the 2013 LTandLela.com/Thompson Family March Madness College Basketball brackets.

This tournament has been held in some fashion or another for many years, dating back to about 1989 or so, when Macon Thompson started posting brackets for family members in Trumbull, CT. In 2000, we moved the tourney online and opened it up to the general public and the enthusiasm it has received has been wonderful. Ever since then masses of people have gathered to compete for the title of champion.

Some ground rules. I am often asked what the entry fee and prizes are. There is no entry fee, this is a family style competition, with much at stake along the lines of dignity and pride, but no money changes hands. There has been a prize for the last several years, as there will be this year.
