1. Dear Drew

   I feel EXACTLY like the guy in the photo. I played the ESPN Bracket insanity challenge. I joined 2 pools. In one pool I finished 96th outof 100. I did a little better in the other one. There I finished 88th out of 100. Overall I went 40-26 in both straight up but obviously a lot of longshots I picked each round didn’t pan out. This was definatly a tournament where the “chalk” (racing term for he favorite in a race for those who don’t know) kept coming in.

   Oh well. Now bring on the Rockies and hopefully a drawing on the Jimenez-Tulo plunking.

   All the best

2. Good Morning from Omaha,

   my luck in the family pool was bad. the two teams I had picked to play for it all went out early and no, one of those teams was not missouri.

   I agree with louis, the jimenez-tulo incident makes for good fodder, but on what level. Jimenez got his money, from the Indians, and still harbored ill will.

   There is more to being a team than wearing the same uniform.

   Strive for excellence, nothing but your best.

3. She not only got Kentucky right, she probably has both Baylor and Notre Dame in the women’s bracket, with Baylor winning tonight. (Any plans for a Baylor cartoon if they win? After all, it’s in Denver.)
