Jim Hamilton (UCSD) at Econbrowser.com has set up the second annual 2009 NCAA Bracket Econbrowser Tournament. You can find instructions on how to join the group and enter your bracket in Hamilton's post yesterday. It was a blast last year. I don't know of anywhere else where you can pit your NCAA tournament game-picking ability against such a large number of economists.

Hey, thought you nerds would enjoy seeing another nerd post stata graphs on rush the court.

Ben, I love the analysis. Anyone who will put up a Stata graph of sports data deserves two pats on the back and one hearty "atta boy". This is only more evidence why I have Pitt losing in the Final Four to...Oklahoma and UConn taking it all. Now you need to run a regression of wins (or win-loss differential) on your efficiency variance measures.
