Mad Ness?
Most who know me, know that I am far from a big basketball fan. Only in recent years have I been somwhat keeping an eye as to whats going on in the world. This is mainly due to the fact that My last few years at Kent, The team was actually doing pretty good, I think it was ‘00 they made it to the elite 8… And then two Years ago I lived in the City Bordering Akron and that was where Lebron was playing high school ball. SO needless to say I was surrounded by it. Anyway, A co worker came up and asked me if I wanted to be in his little March Madness pool he was doing. Normally I look at these things and pretty much shake my head no immediatly. But he explained the idea be hind this pool and it actually sounded kinda fun. In a nut shell there are eight players and each player takes part in a draft to pick thier teams. As their teams advance they earn points and the higher the seed the more points they earn. So you don’t even need to have the champion to win the pool. Kinda fun, It gives you 8 teams to watch etc etc. Plus we all hung out last night at Old Chicogo and had the Draft. If anything it was a chance to go out with the guys etc. It was a fun night we even played some Foosball. Unfortunatly I don’t think i did well in the draft I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. I wad really hoping to Syracuse in my first pick but have the 6th overall pick that didnt happen. Here are my teams and their seeds: Oklahoma State 2 - Kansas 3 - Utah 6 - Mississippi st 9 - G. Washington 12 - Ohio 13 (had to pick the mac champ) - Bucknell 14 - Niagara 14 (home town represent!)
