Le Coq! (Updated again)

Updated Monday, 6 March

Madness increaseth. Rooster approacheth. We are now in March, and the blood shall soon floweth!

Lots of 2006 Book Tournament news posted today, including our list of judges, the tournament schedule, and yes, the complete brackets so your English department betting pool can get off the ground. Official play begins two weeks from today on March 20th.

And boy, do we love some hot bookie action—get in while it’s hot! Win prizes! Support a great cause!

And remember: You can still purchase all our ToB selections at 30 percent off, thanks to the good people at Powells.com, the ToB sponsor.

While you’re shopping, don’t you need a sexy red T-Shirt featuring our feisty white rooster? Both men’s and women’s editions are now available. Thanks again to Susan at Coudal Partners for the cock-a-doodle-dandy design.

No more cock jokes, we promise.
