Bracket Buster

I have been touting Mizzou all year...and poof...out the door they go...with that, my bracket is busted...and you Dukies ...same fate for you...so...the number 15 seed is taken down twice...ouch...watch out for the pundit loving Orange to go down next...so... Who is the team?...gots to think that Kentucky (yea, I don't like Calipari) and Kansas...maybe the sleeper team, Cincy. ..I dunno... Go figure the Blazers as they go into Chi-town, with their tails down and get a V...short lived, so I say... SDSU showed it's lack of inside game in their loss... The wurst shot ever at winning by St. Mary's ...air ball... The Zags are my new fav...beat the Buckeye's?... New Mexico the only MWC left...long odds against Louisville... Saint Paddie's Day ...does the Duck green work? Got the Lexus serviced this am...oh, it is definitely Orygun weather here today...mega rain and high wind...I told the Jiffy Lube guy, I must be the only sum bitch out this morning.....

It all came tumbling down... the Portland Trailblazers ....the pride of the Pacific Northwest....actually, the last NBA team standing in the region...the Seattle Supersonics, GONE, the Vancouver Grizzlies, GONE...so here we have the last bastion of hoop strength... But no, I mean NO!...this is an incredible mess of a franchise...repeated blunders in the draft, followed by the lack of administrative stability, the fiasco of the Rose Garden and all...nope, this is a perfect example of money not buying it all... There is still no official GM...think back when the brass fired their GM on draft day, then had him still do the draft before he departed...what?...and yet, you, the fan...pay exorbitant prices for these seats...and they got the two blokes from the Nevada Wolf Pack...OMG!...I digress... Yesterday...was the last day for trades...er, so they say...and the un-GM unloaded Gerald Wallace to the Nets...wait, I thought he was a strength of the team?...get this...for two guys who ar...

Your Guide

to the NCAA Big Dance...of course, never, ever, bet on the games... East Regional... ...poor bracket...Syracuse will get a huge scare from Kansas State...low scoring and very physical...totally dependent on the officiating...Cincinnati is the sleeper team...take a long look at them...Ohio St?...maybe... South Regional... upset city...could have as many as 6 upsets...really...Kentucky is the pick, but Caliparri not my fav game manager...be careful...Duke and Notre Dame...will have a dinger...watch out for New Mexico St... Midwest Regional... totally wide open...most of the attention will go to North Carolina and Kansas...agree with the Jayhawks...the Nashville bracket could be a huge determiner of who wins these bets...if SDSU and Georgetown meet up...could be another bracket buster.... West Regional... packed and best teams...my fav is Missouri...but...geez, there are the likes of Florida, Mich St, Louisville, Marquette, Murray St...wow...if you can figure this one out...wel...

68 teams...count 'em...as compared to two...count 'em in football...oops, 4 weeks poss...too much school missed?...ha ha... this is the year that there will be countless upsets ...don't think in the 1st round, but thereafter...count on it...just judge by the conference playoffs where few of the reg season champs won...ie, the beasts of the east...I'll give you my pix manana... Crazy finish to the golf in Florida...congrats to Justin Rose ...the gimpy leg of Tiger is back... Bubba was Bubba and yet, still had a chance...and goofy...the awkward play of the string bean...and, my man, Serge , was almost at his number that he wore...17...a whopping 12 on a par 3...did you say, "Tin Cup?"... Well, I am unable to continue to watch the Apprentice ...too much of the Donald and his kids ...as they made no sense in what they did last night...too much for this blogger...bye bye Donnie... And talk about your frustration...close your eyes as Ben picks his wurma...

And the lottery for Peyton Manning has begun...the Colts released him and set him free...and the rest of the league has rolled out their red carpets for the opp to get the QB...and believe me...he is the BEST...still...rumors have Miami, Phoenix, NY, and...the Broncos...amongst others...fact is the best and most reasonable fit is in Denver...where the coaches would bend over backwards as they did for the unorthodox guy they have now... SDSU got beat by New Mexico...the Lobos deserved and will get a nod for the Big Dance...but, alas, the Aztecs will, too...and the demise of the Pac 12 hoops continues...Colorado wins the T...and just may be the only pick... Florida has a cool golf T going on...and you want frustration...Bubba Watson is paired with Keegan Bradley in the final group...Keegan takes forever to play...Bubba be fast...if you are like me, you find yourself yelling at the TV..."hit the ball Keegan!"... Marsh and I went down to Nickey's last night and had a ...
