I started blogging on March 23 of last year and eventually, like many bloggers, fizzled out after several months. I'd like to get back into it since there is a lot happening on the lot these days ... brackets, Phish, baseball, monkeys ...
My very first post was about how my NCAA tourney brackets were causing me grief. I'm in a few tourney pools this year, but the only one I'm taking seriously is Desiree Koh's Rack'em and Wreck'em Bracketology. I love this one cuz Des provides a regular recap of how the contestants' brackets are fairing with her particular blend of sports mania, humor and journalism.
Currently, I'm rockin and rollin with the potential to get 14 of 16 correct for the Sweet 16 (and I picked Western Kentucky over Gonzaga folks)! My only other flub is that I picked Utah over Cleveland State, except the underwhelming Arizona beat the Utes. If CSU can pull off another upset over the Wildcats, then that will neutralize anybody else that might have called for Arizona to enter the Sweet 16.
An observation: isn't it refreshing to have a tournament without Billy Packer!?! My whole life I've been forced to listen that yahoo. I forget what he did last year to get him fired, but I'm glad he did it.
Interesting fact: I saw Phish on a snowy, December night in 1995 at Cleveland State's basketball arena - the CSU Convocation Center.
