Was on the fence about even filling one out, but here we to.

Did CBS and ESPN. Hitching my hopes to Sparty this year in both.

I've also doomed myself by being overly optimistic about KU's chances. I have our guys getting past NEastern and Auburn to get to KC. In ESPN I have us beating UNC because there's just no way I can pick UNC over KU. It's some kind of medical condition I think. In fact, my aversion to all things Tarred has them getting upset by Utah State in my CBS bracket and KU beating Utah State in the next round. I know nothing about Utah State and prior to filling out my bracket didn't know for a fact that there was such a place (like some kind of prankster putting "Nebraska State" in the bracket as a joke to see how many people would pick them). Still, I've always loved it when Roy gets behind, gets flustered and saves his timeouts like the $20 that Aunt Myrtle gave him for his first communion. In both I have KU losing to ISU who I see as a more worthy adversary that Kentucky.

I won't bore you with further details, but suffice it to say I'm not investing my retirement account into this, so I'm just hoping our guys have a good showing, that some of our adversaries suffer some kind of embarrassment, and that somebody tolerable with a little class prevails as frequently as possible (which severely impacted my decisions regarding Duke, Baylor, K-State, Tennessee, UNC and UK).

Tipoffs coming soon. Work productivity over the next two days will be in decline.
