Now that I’ve got your attention, let’s talk NCAA basketball. I know what you’re thinking. “Wichita State? They’re a #9 seed. Who in their right mind would make such a bold (and crazy) statement?” Okay, that’s a legitimate question. Maybe I’m not in my right mind. Or maybe I just don’t believe that Wichita State […]

What a wild ride that first week was, huh? And this weekend’s games should be even better. All things considered, I felt pretty good about picking twelve out of sixteen teams correctly to make it this far. I know, 75% won’t make you much money in the betting world, but there were a lot of […]

Time to be repaid for the countless hours of dedicated research, watching every conceivable NCAA Division I basketball game available to mankind since Thanksgiving-ish.

Was that a great tournament or what? Tons of upsets in the early rounds. A few more upsets in the middle rounds. Ultimately the final four had very good teams that put on an exciting semi-final show before the best team in the country handily won the championship game! Who can ask for anything more? […]

It’s been several years since I’ve looked forward to the final four matchups as much as I am this year. I can’t put my finger on the reason, but I think it has something to do with fact that I picked three of the four remaining teams to be here. This really surprised me, since […]

Well, we’re down to eight teams in the NCAA Tournament, and who could have asked for a better set of matchups? We all know that the tournament started off a bit shaky, with so many top dogs going down early. But the cream has risen to the top and we are left with the potential […]

The scene resembles the gathering of the dead after a classic battle between the Greeks and Trojans in the epic movie Troy. If I were an eternal […]

The brackets are set, 68 teams are in and at least fifteen more are grumbling that they should have been in if only .……. well, you can fill in the blank with whatever you want. I just want to get on with making my picks. There’s a couple of reasons for that. First, if I […]
