    I finished 8th out of 32 contestants.

    If Illinois had won, I would have finished second.

    I had Illlinois, UNC, Wake and Duke in the Final Four (extreme ACC homerism) but with Illinois winning it all. Alas.

    I got demolished was 2nd at the end of the first round, then it all went downhill soon after....I think I might need to take a break from filling out brackets for a few years...then again come next year I will probably end up filling one out.

    I haven't even started it... I want the COUGAR logo in the middle, but I will have to do with our own school logo...

    I want a jacuzzi, though... I don't think our homeowner's association will allow us to build a pool, since the aerial easement is over my backyard... I am planning on a playground, though... a pool, maybe in my second house, but certainly NOT NCAA, Rockets' logo, my man!

    17 out of 70. Last year I finished 3rd.

    ... But I DID manage to win our annual "Pick the winning team out of a hat" NCAA pool. No skill involved whatsoever! I broke even and won all my betting money back! Woo-hoo!

    Now, let us never speak of 2005 NCAA Tournament again.

    I predicted every game correctly and picked the exact score in the championship game...

    Of course, I didn't fill out my bracket until last night...is it too late to turn it in?

    I screwed the pooch when Oklahoma State lost. I now owe my buddy all the sushi and sake he can consume one night in the upcoming 6-8 weeks.

    I swam about a dozen laps before they told me to get out because I wasn't supposed to be swimming while the women's team was practicing. I was like, you suck!

    Oh, wait...nevermind. Wrong kind of pool.

    :)
