341 - selection sunday

#6 seed seems about right for the hoosiers. the bad news: they play all the way in salt lake city (and that's the closest they'll play!). the good news: who is really scary in that bracket? sdsu? they've got one good player. gonzaga? they got two. ucla? can you say token west coast seed? even memphis is beatable. we'll see.

in other selections, we have a fantasy football alert! the edge goes to...arizona? could be a smart move. on the other hand, can he really make them a winner? what is randle el thinking? he went from being the #2 receiver on a super bowl champ to the redskins where he'll be a #3 behind moss and brandon lloyd. hell, moss may even be a better kick returner than him. why not come to chicago and be loved in his hometown doing the same thing he did for the champs?!? oh yeah, $$$$.

i finally caught some of the world baseball classic. i gotta say, i love it. well, except for the u.s.a paying off the umps. how else would you explain that blown call? i still think the u.s. would have pulled it out in the bottom of the ninth anyway. puerto rico routed the favored dominicans tonight. that game was pretty intense. it sounded like a playoff game as you watched it.
