most years my bracket is near the bottom of a trash can right about now. but this year i've been hanging on. i've got 3 of the 4 final four teams right, after stanford decided not to show up against texas. i should have remembered the first rule of basketball: nerds can't handle quick guards.
when i filled out my bracket, i went with kansas because i figured that everyone and their mom would be picking either north carolina or ucla. so i knew i needed to do something in order to give me a boost in case i was in the mix going into the final weekend. i would be stuck in the middle of the pack if i picked unc or ucla.
so i'm invested in kansas, but i just can't cheer for them. can't bring myself to do it.
ok, there is one small reason i'll pull for them. after SU beat kansas in '03 (cuse is in the house, oh my god oh my god!) roy williams bolted for carolina and then won the title in '05. but it wasn't with his own recruits. so it would be nice for his old school to deny him the title.
i'll also be pulling for memphis, because as far as i know, john calipari is the only remaining coach to have been threatened with his life at a press conference.
