crippled bracket

This year Rollo put together one of the largest bracket pools I've ever seen. We've got over thirty-five (that's 35+!!!) people in this thing. So yesterday, I've got my whole day planned out: I'd work my ass off in the morning, take half my lunch break to goof off and then at 12:20pm - settle in for a long day of rooting for the likes of Temple, USC and BYU.

You probably can already tell what my issue be (be???). USC and BYU made a game of it, losing in the closing moments. That's just some tough luck. But Temple was my 5/12 upset. Temple, Temple, Temple... I should have really known better. They were never really in it from the start.

The night before the tournament started, I talked so much crap on Rollo's bracket, while hyping my own. I even owe him $5 now because of BYU! Our brackets are almost polar opposites, so yeah, he's doing MIGHTY fine right about now. Good for him, though. He definitely knows college basketball.

So my bracket's toast. I've incorrectly picked four winners, having USC in the sweet sixteen. Thanks Southern Cal!
