We used this CBS Bracket group a few years ago.  They keep sending renewal emails. We used ESPN in 2011, but they have no renewal information and are trying to get bracket users to buy Insider status to get more information, some of which CBS is providing for free. Go to:

http://wnff.mayhem.cbssports.com

League name: Washington Nationals Fan Forum

Password: zimmerman

League abbreviation: wnff

 
First place:  Bragging rights
Second place:  "I could have won if only..."
Third  place: I got Third Place.

I set this up with the Add Seed Scoring option, which rewards picking upsets.  If a 12 seed beats a 5 seed, you add 12 points.  If the 5 seed wins, add 5 points to the basic score (which a commissioner can control, unlike ESPN):

First Round:       5 points
Second Round:  10
Third Round:     15
Fourth Round:    20
SemiFinals:       25
Finals:              30
       
They still have email addresses for Invitations from 2010 I can use. 
Entry must be created before the first game this Thursday March 15, 2012. 
You have to set up or log in to a CBS Sports ID.

SEND ME A PM IF YOU CANNOT SIGN UP WITHOUT AN INVITATION. 
E.G. The address for Sportsfan882 has a gmu,edu suffix, so that invite may not work.

CBS also has a separate Round By Round game. 
I can set one of those up too, if people are interested
