I just filled out a bracket for my first "money pool" ever. The pool of course if for the infamous NCAA basketball tournament which will be upon us tomorrow!! This is (in my opinion) the best 3 weeks of any sports, including the superbowl, world series, The Masters, Daytona, the Olympics.. why? College atheletes who are playing for nothing but pride, seniors who are down to their last shot. You lose, you die. These guys aren't getting paid (well... let's just say they aren't) and they are giving everything they have for the love of the game. The tournament is also awesome because everyone can engage in it. Even if you are just filling out brackets with your friends, it's just cool to be able to sit down and fill in those lines. Filling out my bracket is always hard because you KNOW that there are going to be upsets, you just have to use that spidi-sense and predict them. I will go ahead and post the link to my picks if I can, but I will give you a little run-down if you can't access it. If the link doesn't work, sorry. I will say that my cinderella's are: Syracuse, Western Kentucky, and West Virginia. I went with an elite 8 of Louisville-W. Virginia, Connecticut-Missouri, Pittsburgh-Villanova, and North Carolina-Syracuse. Final Four: Louisville-Connecticut, Villanova, North Carolina. Championship game Louisville-North Carolina with Louisville winning it.

I'm probably way off, I always am. I thought it might interest you to check it out, so do so:
