ncaa tourney

like many people in the united states right now, i'm totally obsessed w/march madness. i love these first two days. so many games, the chance of a big seed falling. duke provided a little bit of that yesterday, but really, the way they've played this season (at one time falling completely out of the top 25 rankings) they just aren't the duke of old. and, they mid level seed, but really that was probably more about history & respect than how good they are this year. so, they lost a close one.

(the sports guy has a pretty funny running diary about watching the tourney.)

after this initial weekend, the energy tapers of a bit, but i still enjoy following it all, seeing types scramble to advance, watching the purity of the sport. it's all about win today or you're done.

what stinks is being an "adult" now in the "working world" and missing games. of course, today is a light work day, and it's 9:30 am and i'm blogging at home. i'm currently watching unlv put it onto georgia tech. but, i've got to go to a new student orientation @ work in about twenty minutes and won't be able to watch any games until noonish.

(right now a number 15 seed is leading a number 2 seed. could be a big upset, especially because on some of my brackets i have that 2 seed winning 2 more games. i'm sure they'll get their act together though.)
