My bracket is officially done now, reduced to a conglomeration of red strikeouts. If you look closely, you’ll see that I managed to correctly pick only 8 of the sweet sixteen teams, 3 of the elite eight teams and no final four teams. Of the teams I picked to play in the championship, […]

March Madness 2006: Behold the Burning Pile of Picks
March 21st, 2006 · 11 Comments
There’s really not much to say here. The first and second rounds of the tournament were not kind to my bracket. Like, not even a little bit. Kansas lost in the first round. North Carolina lost in the second round. The Georges accomplished more than their fair share in […]

March Madness, Baby!
March 15th, 2006 · 4 Comments
Oh, yes. It’s that time of year again. I cannot well describe the excitement this time of year brings for me — we won’t bring up the loss of productivity as I continuously refresh ESPN’s scoreboard during the day. In college, I missed very few classes, and most of these absences can be attributed […]

October 4th, 2005 · 5 Comments
Dear USD Football team,
We had some good times a few years ago. I would go to your games, you would play horribly, okay, or marginally well. Every once in a while you would pull a State win out of the hat to satiate your public. Yet, I would never go so far […]

March Madness 2005: Day 4 - More of the Same
March 20th, 2005 · 3 Comments
There’s really not much to say about today. Teams won, teams lost. My bracket is pretty much down for the count. What else is there to talk about?
The bright spot for the day was my pick of NC State over U Conn. It’s not much but it’s something. The low […]
