Good afternoon everyone.  I know what you're thinking, I know, I know...  You're thinking that we should have a contest to see which of first two quotes above best relates to my blog - y'all are SO MEAN...  :)

A little trivia question for you...  What do VCU, Duke, St. John's, Iowa State, Maine, Mercer, East Tennessee State, Lipscomb, and Stetson have in common?  All of these schools have basketball teams that are saying, "WE should be in the Sweet Sixteen - that could be us!"  Okay, Duke ACTUALLY IS in the Sweet Sixteen, but this is the list of schools that beat Florida Gulf Coast during the season.  Lipscomb actually beat them twice, just in case you're keeping score at home...  Congratulations Eagles, you are making this tournament very interesting!  :)  You also account for 2 of my 16 losses...  :P


My predictions fared better in the 'Round of 32' - I went 11-5 over the weekend, and my total for the tournament now stands at 34-18.  All of my picks should look as good as my Miami vs. Illinois call...

My prediction:  Miami 62  Illinois 56     Actual score:  Miami 63  Illinois 59


I slept REALLY WELL after I got back from work last night, and I've got plans to see my dad today, so I'm going to keep this post short.  The bad news (for you) is that I am going to post every day this week through Saturday.  Here is a preview of what you can expect this week:

Tomorrow (Tuesday):  My next 'Could You?' post...
Wednesday:  My predictions for the 'Sweet Sixteen'...
Thursday:  My next 'I Remember The First Time' post...
Friday:  The draft results from my three fantasy baseball drafts...
Saturday:  My predictions for the 'Elite Eight'...

Due to what has transpired already, do you realize that it is GUARANTEED that we will see either Wichita State or La Salle playing this weekend in the Elite Eight?  Gotta love the madness...  :)

I hope that you have a great day, and I'll see you again tomorrow!
