Yeah, I mean, I definitely think there's something to be said for picking upsets for no other reason than to separate yourself from the pack. I honestly think UCLA is going to win the tournament, so for me I feel odd not picking them.

Aaaaand I'm out. Time for bed. Night, all.

Brazil Thrill — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 00:36:39 EDT

@Oops Pow Surprise: @44 in a Row: It's the ESPN Deadspin bracket group, which places emphasis on later rounds but gives no bonuses for upsets. I guess if the upset does come to fruition, which is highly unlikely, I would be in great shape to finish at the top of the group. Whereas if I had picked UCLA, I would end up being one among many to do the same. I actually really liked Clemson to make it to the F4, but their god-awful free-throw shooting scared me away.

I watched them once and liked their offense. They probably won't make it, but seeing as I have Memphis, Tennessee and Kansas in the Final Four I decided to go out on a limb on the weakest region.

Honestly, I think the right call here depends on the type of bracket. If you're talking one that's weighted for upsets, then taking Drake is a risk, but one with an enormous payoff if they win. If it's straight wins, then I don't like it as much.

@Steve Trachsel, Ace. No, really, ACE: This coupled with the conversation that we had a coupla nights ago about ex-gf's angry dad losing earns a solid +1.

@Becky_MI: Understood. But hearing his tales of misery (from a 3rd party) could be kinda fun.

@She Blinded Me With ONIONS!!!: The noticed, but all the same unintentional ones, are always the best.

@Le Kangourou de Kataroo (Bjork did it).: Bacon double cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard...I sometimes enjoy that grossness.

@Le Kangourou de Kataroo (Bjork did it).: Says the girl that was covered in unexplained bike grease.

Yes I am assuming you were covered head to toe in bike grease. No reason really I just tend to jump to wild conclusions. Well that and I just had my first beer in 7 years.

@Steve Trachsel, Ace. No, really, ACE: Yup. Harris is young, ridiculously fast, and can play some good D when he wants to. Kidd... not so much.

I hope that we get a Dallas - Golden State rematch in the first round of the playoffs (unlikely).

@Le Kangourou de Kataroo (Bjork did it).: Do you mean to say that they could have gone to CASA BONITA and chose Burger King? Those kids ARE trouble.

@Becky_MI: Learning its another guys kid is funny, finding out when the kid comes out another color is HILARIOUS.

Class makes me miss the goddamn best game of the day. Its a freaking sport based class, how can the professor not understand what tournament time means?

@Steve Trachsel, Ace. No, really, ACE: I *might* have made a similar joke to my mom today. It was a moment of weakness. Or drunkenness anyway.

Sugar cookies are finally baked/cooled/decorated/semi-cleaned up.

Now the kids have been sent to clean their rooms. That should buy me a little time...

Also, ANYWHERE THEY WANTED for dinner, and they picked burger king. I've forgotten how gross fast food burgers are...

I am so glad to be home. I shlepped my viola practically to New Jersey and back tonight. All I want to do now is watch what's left of the 1st round tonight and feel my ass grow on my couch.
