Dr. Z would have gone 2-4 on his Final Four. I went 4-4. So, I'm not Dr. Z.
I know I'm not alone in going 4-4. I know you probably did as well. But I needed a self-vote of confidence after the first few rounds of the NCAA Tournament.

But, the writing was on the wall. As soon as the brackets were released everyone knew it'd be a very vanilla Final Four. Many of the predictions on the tube had 1s and 2s dominating the Elite 8/Final 4.
It's a shame there were hardly any upsets. My buddy Matt actually played it right. He did a bracket challenge with like five other guys and easily won it all. Assuming they would all predict tons of crazy upsets and Cinderellas, he filled out his bracket assuming the big dogs would cruise to the end, thus increasing his chances to win. Picking upsets gives him a 1:6 chance, but taking that beaten, yet unbeaten, path (I don't think that makes sense) he's more like 1:3 chance. Therefore, he's smarter than I am.
Alright, I gotta jet. I just wanted to reaffirm that I belong here.
Enjoy the weather.
