Football is my thing, but when NCAA Tournament time rolls around, it's "all hands on deck" here at SB Nation Seattle. Now, rather then pretending I am qualified to give tournament advice, I gathered picks from folks who get paid big bucks to know these things. Also, some people who are probably less qualified than me -- like the facebook guy.

Here are some expert and celebrity picks for the 2012 NCAA Tournament.
