Another One Bites The Dust
Posted by: Bradley McDonald
I am now left with a grand total of one team in my predicted Final Four, after No. 2 seed Ohio State lost to No. 7 seed Georgetown today. That sets up a Sweet Sixteen with a 13 seed (Bradley), an 11 seed (George Mason), and two 7 seeds (Wichita St. and Georgetown).
The parity in this year's tournament seems very abnormal. There are a lot of close games when the seeds should dictate otherwise. Even the 16-1 matchups were close for a while. It makes for some exciting games, but spells trouble when you're trying to predict winners!
Since the rest of my bracket is shot, it's time to give up on cheering for who I picked and begin cheering for a Cinderella (Go Bradley!). I'm still ranked fifth in our 90&9 pool but that should change soon when other people start getting points that I have no hope in getting. The top 5 have been surprisingly consistent so far in our pool, but 90&9's Kent Curry did give up the top spot and now sits at third.
Where is The Bench Warmer's David Bunch, you ask? Well, let me see...better scroll down...ah, there he is! He's made a small comeback and sits in 14th place, as of now. I would make fun of him, but my descent shall be rapid and painful in the upcoming days.

I, too, have no hope left so I am with you - Go, Bradley!
