Oh how I miss bracketology!

One of the worst things about being down­sized out of your job in the spring is that you miss out on the brack­ets for March Mad­ness. While I am no gam­bler, I love to fill out the brack­ets, and fol­low my pre­dic­tions to their dis­as­ter­ous end. Typ­i­cally I am done by the end of day one, but it is always fun to see how you fare ver­sus your co-workers. So as you fill out your brack­ets this year, think of me. I will be busy look­ing for my next job oppor­tu­nity so that in March of 2007, I am not left out of the fun. By the way, in last year’s tour­na­ment I cor­rectly picked UNC to win it all. I must admit that my pick has less to do with my psy­chic pow­ers or sports knowl­edge, and more to do with the fact that I pick the Tarheels every year. This year is no excep­tion, but the brack­ets will sit all alone on my desk­top. (Go Heels!) North Car­olina is actu­ally play­ing right up the road at the UD arena in the open­ing round of the tour­ney. With tick­ets going for upwards of $1,000 and me still look­ing for employ­ment, I think I will set­tle for CBS in the base­ment.
