I think I know why I haven't been following College Basketball as much as I used to pre-College, and during College. No horses in the race. I have been a DePaul fan forever, and they have pretty much sucked for a long time. Tourney time is fun.
Here are my picks:
Villanova to win it all. No reason for it, it just worked out that way. Every year I do my bracket, and my Champion isn't who I expect it to be. I have them playing Kansas in the Championship game. Minor notes: Gonzaga over Syracuse. Gonzaga going to the elite 8. Not good. Cornell had a tough draw. I have them beating Temple and then Wisconsin, and then losing to Kentucky. If Wisconsin ends up beating Cornell, they may have a shot at beating Kentucky. I have Alford's New Mexico team going to the Sweet-16, only to lose to West Virginia.
My Elite-8's are 1 and 2's, except for the West. Gonzaga and Pittsburgh. Pitt to the final 4??? Oh brother. Should be fun. If Gonzaga pulls the upset I will look like a Guru!! Ha ha!! Hope they don't get clobbered.
Track last night told me nothing. The workout was 6 or 8 -800's with an active 200 recovery. I did 5. :) I actually wouldn't have made it home if I did more. Bathrooms weren't open, and one more hard effort would not have been pretty. I had to run home too.
My times ranged from 3:21- 3:31. Like I said real close. I told Alan it I were to guess my time it would be anywhere from 21:58-22:02. :) Maybe worse. We'll see.
Funny Story:
Yesterday Lisa had a spill. Just a brief glimpse in what it is like living with me. Lisa was raking the leaves in front, and I was taking a nap on the grass with the puppies. (I am tapering remember!!!) She said she was going to go in back to lay down, and read. I asked if she wanted to take the puppies for a walk. She gave me a not interested look, but came anyway. We were going pretty short anyway. We are walking and she makes a noise. A noise girls don't like to make, and a noise guys always seem to find funny. First thing I do is look back, look at her, and grab my phone. She knows I am thinking of tweeting it. A struggle ensues for the phone. We are laughing, and she stumbles and falls hard on her front. Laughing ends. Her finger hurts like hell now, and her knees are a bit banged up. Nothing serious, but she'll be hurting for a while. The fall was not graceful. We laughed about it later some. I was worried at first, and so was she. Poor Lisa, you know I will tell people at work. Ha Ha!!!
I guess that is about it for today. Nothing major on the workout front today. I may tack on some to my bike ride home, but that will be about it. I have some laundry to do, dinner to make, and a little basketball to watch.
Have a great day!!! :)
