March Madness Tourney Talk

Today is tomorrow, which means it is time for a new blog entry. As promised, today I will be writing all about the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. For starters, XU didn’t make the field of 68, which is a bummer. It’s ok, we still have UC to count on, right? Wrong. They lost. So did Georgetown, to Florida Gulf Coast University. I like them, I sure hope they win it all. Just think of it: a 15 seed winning the NCAA tournament. I guess that’s kind of a long shot, even if they did make it all the way to the sweet sixteen. Miami lost as well, by a lot, to Marquette, knocking Shane Larkin (I do hope I spelled his name right), Barry Larkin’s kid, out of the tournament. I was kind of rooting for them, I always liked the big SS. I really don’t have much to say on this topic. I guess I might be a little sour because of my horrible bracket. One of my final four teams (Georgetown) is already out. My winning team (Indiana) is losing to Syracuse as I type. Only half my final four teams, and half my finals teams at that, could possibly go to the elite 8. And Louisville still hasn’t played yet. I know I really shouldn’t be too worried about them losing, but every time I tell myself that, I think, I wasn’t worried about Georgetown losing to FGCU, was I? Brackets are so unpredictable, and really are a waste of time. I fill one out every year though, because the pool I enter is free to join, and the prizes you get if you’re lucky enough to win are truly fabulous. With that I end this post. Don’t know of the next one will be today or tomorrow, but it will be around then. But I don’t want to say “see you today!”, so I’m going to stick with the good old “see ya tomorrow”, even of I see ya earlier than that. See ya tomorrow.
