Brackettown Breakdown

As we approach Championship Week and we continue to look at the bracket it appropriate to put teams in three categories: The "Hamptons" (the high end teams, locked into the touranment), the "Town Square" teams (the middle of the bracket where everybody gathers) and separately the "One Bid Wonders" (leagues that have ZERO teams with at-large profiles). Currently, we have 78 teams on the board and we'll drop and add as teams get hot or cold.
