Well, I'm still doing pretty well, I'm currently 7th in my pool. I picked 12 of the Sweet 16 correctly and have at least 5 of the Elite 8 with one game left to finish. I'm usually pretty horrible when it comes to my NCAA bracket every year, and I'm pleasantly surprised how well I'm doing. Update 3/24 - I've got 6 of the Elite 8 and 3 of my Final teams still in it. guess we'll see how it goes...

NCAA Pool - Day 1
Doing pretty well so far, picked 13 of the 16 games correctly. Even picked the VCU win over Duke. I should have gone with my head and not my heart when I picked Gonzaga over IU, but I pick IU to lose in the first round every year they're in the tournament. Guess we'll see how I do today..... Go Boilers!
Super Bowl Champs!
My Colts finally did it. About time....

"ESPN.com - MLB - Indians minor leaguer: Gay porn role a 'mistake'":
Indians minor league pitcher Kazuhito Tadano is asking for forgiveness for what he called a one-time mistake -- his appearance in a gay porn video in which he engaged in a homosexual act.
Tadano took part in the video three years ago when he was a college student. Sitting in Cleveland's clubhouse Tuesday, he said he hoped to put his actions in the past.
