Despite this articles goal I thought of it a different way.  Everyone seems to fill out a bracket around the time of March Madness.  Often the opinions of analysts are listened to by the many fans and they use it to make certain picks.  My question is is this copyright if someones uses someone else’s article to pick a team and they aren’t given credit for it?  This may seem like a ridiculous question but my point is where does the use of others ideas stop being copyright and start being allowed.
