Everything You Need to Know about the World Cup in Kansas City

I wanted to do a bracket with prizes, but ESPN made it so complicated. I did create groups, but you have to do a group stage and then later do the knockout rounds once we know who is actually in it. I’ll share those links in case you are interested, but remembering to go back and fill out another bracket is a bigger task than set it and forget it.
