Nice while it lasted...

I am by no means an avid college basketball fan but like many Americans I love to be a part of the NCAA pools during March Madness - not for money of course, that would be illegal ;) I love some good competition any way I can get it so I fill out a bracket each year and hope for the best. I am somewhat interested the first big weekend because of all the games. Then as I see how my choices weren't the greatest, I lose interest until the final game. This year however, my black magic method of picking got me pretty far! As of Saturday night after the North Carolina win over Louisville, yours truly was #1 in the pool! I entered in Mike's pool at work and I've been in the top ten since last weekend's games. I was so impressed with myself - until tonight. Memphis beat Texas....I am currently in 23rd place! ugh. How can one game cast me down so far in the list! Well I do have North Carolina winning it all. So I will still hold my head high if I at least picked the big winner of all the madness. Go Tar Heels!

I think I teared up at your last sentence. ;) I am so anxiously exctied for them!!! And just about everyone I know had Memphis getting booted in the Elite Eight (or before), so don't feel so bad.
