FOX Sports Radio Launches Basketball Bracket Challenge


FOX Sports Radio has announced the launch of a Basketball Bracket Challenge. With basketball fans deprived of March Madness this year, FSR is aiming to recapture the fun with a bracket challenge focused on the NBA playoffs.

The challenge debuts tonight, Friday, August 14, after the final scheduled regular-season game between the 76ers and Rockets. Listeners will have the chance to compete against each other, as well as FSR's industry-leading talent, including Colin Cowherd, Clay Travis, Doug Gottlieb, Chris Broussard, Rob Parker, R.J. Bell, Jason Smith, Mike Harmon, Ben Maller and others, for the chance to win a Westinghouse 50" Roku TV.

"We all have bracket envy since the tournament was robbed from us in March," said Scott Shapiro, FOX Sports Radio Vice President of Sports Programming. "So we thought why not give sports fans what they want - a way to compete against our hosts and fellow listeners in a basketball bracket!"

To participate, visit www.FOXSportsRadio.com after the final regular-season game to fill out a bracket. Brackets must be submitted prior to tip off of the first playoff game on Monday, August 17 at 12:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
