Yes, it's time for another action-packed, fun-filled episode of Monday Madness. This one, according to Scott, is lemon scented! Tim and Scott bring you a preview of the opening contests of Lent Madness 2025. Figuring out which saint is up against which saint is as easy as ABC this year. No, seriously.
If you want maximum bracketology, you can read the Saintly Scorecard on your Kindle. Our printed scorecards sold out this year! Of course, you don't NEED to buy anything. You can tune in each voting day of Lent to read the bios right here. And if you want help remembering to do that, just sign up for Lent Madness emails by typing your address into the box on the home page of this website.
Want another fun way to study the saints? Check out these FREE Lent Madness trading cards, created by Allison Bird Treacy. Print your own cards for home, church, or your workplace. We love it when fans are inspired to join in the holy fun of the Saintly Smackdown!
And don't forget, it all kicks off on Ash Thursday, March 6. Happy (almost) Lent!

Looking at the bracket for 2025: am I misreading this, or are there in fact two saints (Rose of Lima and Zita) who appeared on the 2024 bracket? Has the SEC changed the eligibility rules?
Hope you two aren't planning an exit from Lent Madness any time soon. It truly won't be LM without you! I'll need therapy if that happens.
My poster has been hung in my dining room for days now, and I hope the template for poster stickers with the saints' names will be provided. The stickers help a lot.
I look forward to another round of fun and of learning about the saints in this year's competition.
Looking forward to it!!
This is the first year we're following along at Trinity Episcopal in Portsmouth. Do fans vote at the Lentmadness.org site or does each Parrish track their own votes and results?
Is the Saintly Scorecard available in print edition?

Dear Executive Committee (aka Scott & Tim),
If you both feel there needs to be "new blood" due to your slowing down and saving on an extra cup of coffee, I suggest use AI magic and have George T. Dog and another animal of Tim's choosing to host. 🙂
