March Madness

[kybearfuzz]

Personally, I don't really give a flying fart about March Madness basketball, but I think it is appropriately named for the hard core fans. I do get irritated when my usual lunch crowd at work uses it for an excuse to decide where we eat. I won out, but they were showing the Davidson vs whoever game at Skyline Chili, so it was win-win.

This was the pre-game lunch conversation:

Co-worker R: "Let's play a game. What state do you think Davidson is in?"
Me: "I don't know."
Co-worker R: "Awww.. c'mon... guess..."
Me: "Okay, ... Alaska."
Co-worker R: "There are no basketball teams from Alaska."
Me: "Well, I figured if I had to be wrong, my answer could at least be interesting."

Davidson is in NC. How do I know this, you may well ask. The former principal oboe of the New York Philharmonic got his BA there (in English no less).

I actually allowed myself to be talked into entering a March Madness betting pool. I took one of the bracket forms they provided and filled it in with random names of winners in each of the four divisions right up to the championship. I think I picked Duke to win. The way they treat tranny hos, I figure they know how to handle big balls...

Oh, wait, she isn't a tranny. I forgot. Well, I still like my reasoning. ;-)

And I haven't a clue where Davidson is either, nor do I particularly care.
