another march madness begins

and so far i have missed two picks after the first day of the brackets... i had harvard as a possible upset (i had three possible upsets in all that i did not pick), but did not pick them... the other two possibles did not pull off their upset so i was 2 out of three in very low probability upsets that almost happened... the three long shot possible upsets were Southern over Gonzaga, Davidson over Marquette, and Harvard over New Mexico... i ended up putting the favorites in my brackets, but i pondered... the only other pick i missed so far was Wichita St over Pitt, which was a pretty big miss as State whipped Pitt easily... the upsets i did put in my brackets came through... i picked Oregon and California to beat Ok St and UNLV and they did... tomorrow i picked Minn to beat UCLA, though i am not as sure about that one as i was about the other two... kinda flip flopping on that one in my head, but on paper i went with Minn...

so 16 games were played and i picked 14 of them accurately... not bad... the bracket is something to do, numbers to play with, fun in my head and fun to share if anybody else is doing it... it gives us something to talk about, la la la...

so what are you up to tonight? :)
