There are some cute pictures on my blog if you want to see them. I thought I would tell you because I update it so rarely that when you go you usually see the same thing but it will now be different.

optimistic

I did not pick BYU to win the 1st round game this year--not as a lack of faith, but superstition. They have lost every game that I have watched, and every game that I have picked them to win. Therefore, I thought it might be best, for the team, if I picked Florida. Right now, it looks like my plan worked. 8 minutes left, BYU is dominating.

It's That Time of Year... No, Not Christmas

Okay, Everyone print out the bracket and email it to me, or email me your predictions for each round. Kim won the first year, dad the second. Who will take the crown this year?
The first picture is what the bracket looks like, but the second one (sideways) prints better on the page. Just click on the second picture and after it pulls up the picture, right-click and hit print. Remember that it is much more fun when everyone plays.
Also, make sure you pick a winner for the game on the middle-right of the page (Arkansas-PB vs Winthrop) as that is a play-in game for Duke.
Emily will give a kiss to the winner (I know she's not a vixen like Maid Marion but...)
