The Madness Begins…

March 15, 2007 at 12:39am By: D.M.B. Posted in D.M.B. Sports Report

The NCAA Basketball tournament begins on Thursday.

I heard it best about a week ago, no sport dominates a month like March Madness does. 

Your Final 4?  Your champion?

My picks:
Oregon winning the St. Louis Region
UCLA winning the San Jose Region
Texas winning the East Rutherford Region
Ohio St. winning the San Antonio Region

UCLA beating Oregon
Ohio St. beating Texas

UCLA winning the national title over Ohio St.

I have been doing office pools since the late 80’s - I’ve won a couple here and there, and have done relatively well most years, and have been thoroughly humiliated once in a while. This year, for the first time, I did not watch a single college BB game all season. Wow. What kids will do to ya!

But here are my winning picks:
Final Four: Florida, UCLA, NC, Texas A&M;(that’s my sleeper)

My Final features Florida playing North Carolina, with Florida repeating as champion and making NCAA history. No team has ever repeated as the champ using the same starting 5 players as the previous season.

Good luck in your brackets! If anyone is doing a Yahoo online Lincolnite tourney or anything, I’d love to join.

Okay, I heeded my own advice and started a Yahoo bracket. Here’s the linkie…

Group name is “Lincolnite”
password is “wilson” - very clever, no?

Hope someone joins! My entry is “Fletch”
-- good luck!

Just a correction: Soccer dominates June - July every other year. 

I haven’t looked at the bracket, but I’ll pick the hometown Badgers to win it all.

Soccer?
