I have set up a Yahoo! NCAA Tournament Pick'm group. Anyone is free to come on by if you want. The group name is AGS and the password is FCS. I am currently working on my bracket right now. If you have any questions by all means ask. The group name and password are in all caps. xnodx

I've never used Yahoo! but how do you find the group because if I choose to join a group by putting in the name and password it gives me an error saying the group isn't private and Group Directory is just groups for "Fans of"

Not that I care one way or another if their are 1 or 2 groups.
