Final Four Follow-up29 Mar 2009 06:00 pm

It’s been a disastrous tournament. My bracket, which was near pristine coming out of the Sweet 16 (15 correct picks out of 16!), blew up over the weekend with the loss of EVERY one of my Final Four teams! Even my alma mater, who bested my projections and made it to the Elite 8, utterly collapsed against the mighty Tar Heels. My 3 yr old made better projections down the stretch than I did – he has TWO Final Four teams remaining. Oh the humiliation!
I guess that’s why they call it MADNESS!
My new rallying call – GO ‘NOVA!
My condolences

Comment #2 by Melissa McMarch 29th, 2009 at 8:01 pmI was 15 out of 16 too, and now I’ve got nothing! The fastest fall from glory that I’ve had in a long time … at least since I last took my children in public.
Comment #3 by Steph @ Diapers and DivinityMarch 29th, 2009 at 8:47 pmI did pick ‘Nova over Pitt somehow, so I was happy about that. But I picked Louisville to win it all, so I was pretty upset about their loss today. Dumb French-named schools. I’m sticking with American-sounding ones next year! I’m still at the top of one of my brackets, though. 1st of 46 people–woohoo! Let’s hope I can keep it that way.
Comment #4 by StarababaMarch 29th, 2009 at 9:11 pmI too kicked butt with 14 of the 16, but now I’ve only got one team left. North Carolina to take it~ please?!? I really need to beat my husband this year!
