Two bonus posts today: At about 10, I'll republish a version of the lead of my Sporting News column today, because it might be my favorite idea/issue/argument of the year. (Quickie regulars will know it -- it might be my most simply explained version yet.) And in the early-afternoon, I will be asking for your help in figuring out what to do with the No. 4 draft slot in my 16-team fantasy baseball league draft being held tonight.
Meanwhile, Selection Sunday is one day closer: Don't forget to sign up for the "Daily Quickie Readers" group of ESPN.com's Tournament Challenge, a 6-year tradition that continues. Yes, you can be in your office pool and the Deadspin pool and still sign up for this one -- apparently, it's like the NIT of tournament pools: It used to be high-profile, now it's slightly more symbolic ("symbolic" meaning "a lot fewer people are entering"). But I have high hopes to juice the entry totals over this final week before the tournament starts. One week from today!!!
