The average man spends way less time on his March Madness brackets while at work than you would probably think.

According to employment experts Robert Half International, the average man between the ages of 18 and 34 spends a little more than half an hour a day on his bracket.

I’ll be honest with all of you here. A little more than half an hour a workday is way less than I would have anticipated.

How is it so low? I spend hours breaking down my bracket. I spend more time on my bracket than nuclear engineers probably do figuring out how to make warheads. I don’t know that to be a fact, but I just know it to be true. Don’t ask for the details.

Anybody who only spends 30 minutes a day on their brackets is somebody who I doubt is truly dedicated to the game. It’s very suspect.

I guess this is why I win March Madness pools all the time,* and other people don’t. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
