La folie de mars

(March Madness)


I know this isn't the best of quality, but as of Round 1 last night, I'm 13-for-16 with my March Madness picks. Not back for someone who's living abroad and hasn't seen a college basketball game in over a year and some odd months, right?

If you can see it, the green picks are my teams that have moved on. The red is the teams I've misjudged. And being a West Coast girl, the Pac-10 teams have really let me down *cough*USCandArizona*cough*

Don't ask any reasoning whatsoever behind my picks. Since I haven't been following NCAA athletics religiously, I kind of went with historic picks, plus added in a bit of upsets. Because we all know that the top seeds don't always perform to their "potential" in the Big Dance.

And just like my short attention span to fantasy baseball, I guarantee I'll stop tracking my teams real soon. Like, for example, when I go to Switzerland tonight for the weekend. Or when my friend comes to visit on Monday for a week. Or when my mom comes for a long weekend. Or when my birthday weekend comes and then I go to Germany and Spain on spring break!

(Note: My birthday coincides with the weekend of the final playoff round. All the aforementioned events will be happening consecutively. AKA, my interest dwindles tonight, once I'm hardly going to be around a computer for two- to three-straight weeks.)

**Edit Note: Speaking of fantasy baseball, I decided to go ahead and join a Yahoo! league anyways, what the hell! Wanna guess my team's name?!

Cleat-Chasers. Try to find me.
