I went two for eight today.

Ouch.

Beebe got one of eight.

Eeep.

Beckett...got six of eight. His lead is back to 21.

Wow.

Just send the kid his prize already. What a boat race. Jeez, Dawnell. Why didn't you tell us the boy's nickname was "the Greek"?

****Editor's Note
I once heard a very good bit of advice, but I don't remember where. It was this. "Never play pool, darts, poker, or gamble in any way against a man who is nicknamed after a place or a body type...ie Slim, Fats, Skinny, Tubby, Minnesota, Tex, or Boston. This is doubly true for someone whose nickname is a combination of both. If a guy named Slim Tex wants to play poker, Run!!!

Jason moved past Mandy, thus avoiding a visit from Vince and Jerry; at least until tomorrow night. That's about the extent of the good from last night.

I thought BYU did a good job of playing respectable basketball. It was pretty clear that K State was going to get away with whatever muggings they wanted to (Two KSU players run into the same screen and BYU gets called? Really?), but the Cougars adjusted pretty well and kept it a lot closer than most folks thought. I'm not disappointed. Especially when I look at what they have coming back next year. Good things are coming to Cougar Bball. At least I no longer have to listen to "One and Done" chants from a certain, unspecified fan base.

K State's victory combined with Kansas choking to death and Georgetown's mighty collapse to decimate my picks. Suddenly one side of my bracket looks as empty as the inside of my skull. Bad news.

For this update, I left two extra numbers on; both the score and the number of correct picks plus the number of correct picks still possible in each player's bracket and what score they could achieve if they get all the rest of it correct.

No post tomorrow, but I'll be back on Monday.
Enjoy your Sunday.
