Tag Archives: Office Pools

I’m not quite sure why mankind insists on torturing itself. Golf is bad enough. But then along came the heinous and cruel tournament brackets. Like lemmings the entire population of the United States has followed this annual ritual right off the proverbial cliff. Along the way we are ridiculed, humiliated and embarrassed. Oh, sure. Some really lucky sap eventually wins the office pool. Someone has to. Mostly because everybody else crashes and burns along the way, because of teams like Virginia Commonwealth who turn the entire process into total turmoil and chaos and render the whole thing an exercise in complete futility. Why do we do this? For fun. Personally, I’d rather agonize trying to swat a stupid little white ball 7000 yards into a little bitty hole the size of a dime. At least the walk is nice.
The New Get Rich Quick Idea
I’m actually starting to think this could be the answer to the entire planets financial woes. A Pool on every corner. There’s always room for the entrepreneurial spirit in all of us. Much cheaper than a Starbucks franchise as well.
This year I won’t be taking part in a pool unless my wife and The Schnauzer are up for it. that’s the way it is when you work out of a home office. I was never any good in Office pools anyway. I think one year I was the only one who picked every 16th seed out of the hat.
