AI Thread Summary
Brackets for college basketball playoffs have become less accessible in recent years, with popular formats like 583's disappearing after being taken over by ABC. Users are struggling to find these brackets, which previously provided a comprehensive overview of game outcomes and upcoming matches. Additionally, employers looking to host NCAA bracket pools should be cautious of state gambling laws, as these pools may be classified as illegal gambling under certain regulations. This concern extends to the sharing of upcoming game lists, which could also fall under similar legal scrutiny.

In recent years, brackets for the college basketball playoffs were quite common. My favorites were probably 583's, but they were swallowed and destroyed by ABC.

Now I can't find them anywhere. Am I missing something?
They provided a great summary view for just seeing how things went as well as what games were up-coming.

A google search found me this:

Historian seeks recognition for first English king https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9d07w50e15o Somewhere I have a list of Anglo-Saxon, Wessex and English kings. Well there is nothing new there. Parts of Britain experienced tribal rivalries/conflicts as well as invasions by the Romans, Vikings/Norsemen, Angles, Saxons and Jutes, then Normans, and various monarchs/emperors declared war on other monarchs/emperors. Seems that behavior has not ceased.
