Given my incredible track record of prognosticative success I'd be remiss if I didn't weigh in on the NCAA basketball tournament.
Tragically my beloved Maryland Terrapins, for the first time in a decade, are not in the tournament. (But boy did they put an ass-whoopin' on Oral Roberts last night! Take that Michele Bachman!) I don't know what happened to that team. They beat Duke twice, but lost to Clemson three times. I don't think any team has ever lost three times to Clemson in the same season. Maybe not in the same decade. What gives John Gilchrist?
Since I can't pick Maryland to win the tournament (as I've done every other year), what does that leave? Frankly I haven't been paying that much attention. How the fuck is Washington a number one seed? Why on earth are North Carolina, Florida, Kansas, and Connecticut in the same region?
But this much I can say: North Carolina and Illinois are clearly the most talented teams in the tournament.
And: Oklahoma State will win it all. I love John Lucas. He reminds me of the great Juan Dixon.
