			You can't get to the later rounds without doing well in the first round. And picking the upsets is the key. I got two of the upsets, but so far have 3 mistakes in the first round. My wife picked the Harvard upset. Good for her. I had been mocking her, saying that Harvard was a bunch of Mark Zuckerbergs, but she showed me. |

			Eek! Somehow, who knows how, I'm 97.5%. I'll take it; things are bound to change day by day. By the end of the weekend I'll have crashed in flames.

			Still better than me. I didn't know anything about this years teams and may know less now.   Creighton is my last final four team.

			Villanova is out. I still have 3 in the final four but that will almost certainly change, given the crazy upsets this weekend. Stanford beat Kansas?? Yikes.  Next year I'll print out the bracket, pin it to the wall, and throw darts at it to make my picks. Oh well - I'm actually not minding the fact that nothing but basketball is on, which was the point of doing this, and the web site keeps all the games updated practically to the minute. It's very weird how much energy goes into this.

			24 out of 48 so far in the Quicken Loan bracket. I'm in 3rd place so far in the bracket at work but I can't win since I had Duke as the champs and they're out already. Not bad for all guess work though.

			I think Wyoming might be my "favorite" team this year. I don't think they've been in the tournament in 20 years.
