If you would have finished top 16, you would have been on MU's short list to replace Crean....you just missed.

Today is the happiest day of my life.   :'( 

I'd like to thank all the little people whose tireless work made it possible for me to rise to the top of such a prestigious competition.  Also I like to thank my baby mama for being a constant source of inspiration while I was debating a Villanova Sweet 16 run.  Lastly I would like to thank the man-beast, the myth, the legend Mr. Trevor Mbakwe for giving me the foresight to stick it to Roy Williams on the 5 year anniversary of our last Final Four appearance.  Thank you.

I don't mean to rain on your parade.  My 10 year old daughter filled out a bracket and she and I did a head-to-head pool with just the two of us.  If I would have entered her picks in this pool as well as the one at my work, she would have won both of them.  Her strategy, pick the favorite in every game, except she had Louisville beating Tennessee.  That was the only upset she picked.  She got the last 7 games of the tournament correct.  Completely smoked me.

I felt much better that she would have beaten 103 hard core college basketball fans too, not just me!

Congratulations anyway!

Ugh! So it isn't enough that I have to admit to hundreds of people that I lost to my 10 year old daughter, now I am called out for grammer mistakes! ;)

I guess my fingers just decided to type "one" a second time in that sentance instead of "won".

MUEng - my apologies.  I'm just Buzzed off right now and took it out on you.

Congrats to your daughter on winning some dough...   ;D
