Has only happened once (2008) in history. I also predicted all #1 seeds in my bracket...the #1s are a cut above this year.

It’s all there in BOLD guys, can’t you read a scatter chart or whatever you call that massive F**kup? I probably spent 30-40 minutes typing my bracket. It took precision typing, spacing, back and forth between bold and regular. I did this all for your entertainment and hoping you’d all share your bracket results.

It wasn’t my intention to become THE entertainment.

Btw, any of you guys follow the womens tourney? My daughter and niece are big fans. My niece has predicted like almost 99% correct. When I looked at the results I noticed some glaring trends. Of all the games there were only 4 upsets of a higher seed beating the lower. Two of those games were the 8/9 matchup with one of them being IU. Most of these games aren't even competitive. USC won by 46, South Carolina by 60, UCLA by 38, Duke by 61, Notre Dame by 52, Kansas St by 44, Texas by 44, UCONN by 69, LSU by 55 and Iowa by 35 (they aren't even that great this year). If ever a tournament needs to contract it's this one. This should be a 32 team tourney at most. Having the first two games on the best seeded teams is a huge advantage. Visiting fans aren't traveling for this. The womens game is so top heavy. I guess this begs the question, why? Maybe the sport hasn't reached the success they think they have. Seems there aren't quite enough quality division 1 women to field all the teams. There's certainly not enough parity. Maybe the greatest Caitlin Clark effect for womens basketball won't be from a monetary POV with more money for the players and more TV coverage, but maybe the growth of the sport will come from these women inspiring future generations. Maybe in 15-20 years we'll see more girls that are worthy of playing at the NCAA division one level. Maybe there will be more parity worthy of 64 teams. Until then the NCAA will continue to follow the money and televise 50 point blowouts. In my eyes that won't grow the game.....I guess we'll see.

I broke the news to her Saturday that she talks A LOT. She said that she wasn't going to come over near as much now, while she was measuring the open wall space with no pictures or shelves.
Is that kind of a mixed message or am I reading to much into the 16' tape measure that she was using?

Sounds like she's really interested in the house. For some reason.
