I don't know; I'm still trying to recover from the loss to FSU by the Tarheels in the ACC Tournament. My only two consolation prizes out of that are that Duke didn't win it either and UNC still got a No. 1 seed in the Big Dance.

Ugh. What a weekend...

Damn, I noticed that. Looks like FSU is pretty damn good this year though.

Your obsession with all things Duke will eventually be your undoing. BWAAAHAHAHAHA....

I have a feeling my bracket is going to get ugly very early on. Two weeks ago, it was just a matter of who matches up better against each other...Kentucky or Syracuse. Now, those two suddenly look vulnerable, although I was never completely sold on Kentucky. Just an extremely athletic, young team playing in a bad conference. I think there are going to to be a huge number of lower seeds advancing in this thing.

More and more every year, the "Cinderella" teams bloody the hell out of the brackets of many. I think I will call mine the Cinderella bracket this year.

Hell I'm just glad to see Tarheel on today. I heard his shoelaces had to be confiscated.

FSU is a dangerous team in the ACC this season; they'd only met the Tarheels once on Jan 14th and it was an ugly loss for Carolina; I knew that the Tarheels could beat Duke (dangerous as they can be) but I was honestly worried about a match-up against FSU. As it turns out FSU not only defeated Duke but Carolina also.

That's a huge feat for anybody in the nation. Beating those two teams on back to back days is stout.

No need for the Suicide Watch. It was a dark morning but I was able to pull myself together and face the day.
