In what is easily my favorite sports weekend of the year, the first week of the NCAA tourney started off pretty dull on Thursday, but the next 3 days more than made up for it. There were many exciting finishes, and the Tampa sub-regional on Friday was crazy with two 12's and two 13's advancing. My only disappointment was Drake getting knocked out. I really had high hopes for them. They had everything I like in a team; but they played one of their worst games of the season. They still had a chance to win after battling back from 16 down with 8 minutes to go to tie it and take it to overtime. The buzzer beater to end overtime was hard to take.
In the only pool I'm in (ran by Mr. Thomas Fuller), I am in a tie for first place with Toph after a monster second round (I nailed 13 of the 16 picks). I have all of my Elite 8 picks alive, but my hopes mainly lie with Texas getting at least to the final game and Wisconsin making the final four (instead of Kansas).
