Madness takes its toll
Another fun day on the NCAA men's basketball front -- most interesting day so far. I caught the last few minutes of regulation, and both overtimes, of West Virginia shocking Wake Forest. I kept wondering whether Raging Red has picked a hottie or two out of the Mountaineer squad -- strictly for entertainment purposes, of course.
I cheered as Bobby Knight's Texas Tech squad took out Gonzaga. (What a difference a week can make as far as one's sports allegiances are concerned.)
And my boys from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee stomped the Gonzaga-like dudes of Boston College to make their way to the Sweet 16 round next weekend.
Stunning. Not too many folks with those picks on their office pool tickets, I'll bet.

It has indeed been a fun week of upsets. While we're congratulating the underdog, let's not forget the Oregon Duck women who pulled a mild upset yesterday by beating TCU yesterday. Their reward? #2 seed Baylor at 6pm tomorrow night in Seattle.
As a lifelong Beaver fan, I can't believe I'm about to say this...
Go Ducks!

I prefer baseball players in their form-fitting pants. Only 13 days 'til opening day!

I can just picture the goofy grin on your face when Texas Tech's Ronald Ross sank those last two free throws to sink the Zags once and for all.
The only thing nicer this year would be L&C beating Capitol. (Must... not... let.. it... consume... me!)
