March Madness will claim its share of victims this week.

At 12:20 p.m. when the University of Maryland tips off against Davidson to signal the start of the NCAA Division I men?s college basketball tournament, working men and women will find ways to track scores, watch games and sneak updates. A recent report by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, a Chicago-based consulting firm, says this type of activity could cost employers up to $1.2 billion dollars over the course of the 19-day tournament.
