In the night there is something wild
Can you hear it breathing?
And hey, put the laptop down for a while
In the night there is something wild
I feel it, it's leaving me

Great March Madness this time around guys. I know this has been said several times, but this was the most unpredictable Final Four I can remember. I chose UConn based solely on their success in the Big East tournament. I had glimpses of them throughout the year and thought they were incredibly mediocre.

When Kemba hit that jumper over Pitt for the win, they had me convinced though. Despite the ugliness of that game last night, I'm glad UConn came out the winner. Definitely had a lot of fun! Looking forward to our next pool =)

Yeah, that had to be the worst I've ever done. Wow. Not only that, I couldn't even stay awake during the Final last night. It just wasn't very interesting, which is a shame given those two teams. It should have been one of the best in recent memory (along with last year's, which I missed because I was moving).

I just distributed the awards and will reach out to get the money sent too. smile.gif

Certainly a wild year. It was almost humerous to see how many people were left with zero teams in the final four (I wasn't much better, with one). It felt a bit weird that there were so many brackets that could no longer gain any points. Would've liked to see Butler put up a bit more of a fight in the final game, but ah well.

Woo! Not bottom! Woo! Top ten!

One of these days I might even make the top five. thumbup.gif

Shame neither St. Mirren nor Scotland ever will in the sport I do understand.
