The Madness of March......

OK-for all of you geniuses who have been bragging about picking Winthrop-please share how you tanked your other 3 upset picks....you missed Belmont beating Georgetown and Wright State beating Pittsburgh and Arkansas beating USC. If you pick enough upsets you're bound to get lucky on one or two of them-but face it-you're not smarter than the selection committee.

Evidence-all 4 of the number one seeds are still alive (although it took a semi-miracle 3 pointer for Ohio State to survive Xavier on Saturday). 3 of the 4 number 2 seeds are still alive. 3 of the 4 number 3 seeds are still alive. 1 of the 4 number 4 seeds is still alive. So-if you went the chalk route in your pool-you'd still have 11 of the sweet 16 picks alive. You can't rely on being the only guy in the pool smart enough to pick George Mason, UNLV, Butler or Vanderbilt. You can bet the people who will win your pool went with Florida, Kansas, UNC or Ohio State.

Hope your picks are still alive and you can Stay in the Game another week!
