3 HOURS LEFT…The Confidential’s Bracket Contest: 2015

In what is now an annual tradition, the Confidential will have another bracket contest in 2015.

We will give out a first prize of $25.00 via Pay Pal to the winner (prizes will increase if/when number of entrants increases).

Oh, and good luck.  You’ll need it.
