the tourney has been totally nutty. period. not a whole lot else to say, except where we stand going into the sweet 16 …

g-pa jer … 10 of 16 intact … (overall wins to date: 35 of 48 (73%))

me … 10 of 16 intact … (overall wins to date: 32 of 48 (67%))

mommy … 11* of 16 intact … (overall wins to date: 32 of 48 (67%))

daddy … 10 of 16 intact … (overall wins to date: 28 of 48 (58%))

*mommy would have 12 of 16 IF she hadn’t listened to g-pa jer and daddy about west virginia and duke … grrrrrr …

also, mommy’s elite eight is completely intact going into the sweet 16. g-pa jer, daddy, and i each have 6 of 8. all of us have complete final fours, etc., so there is a faint hope at least one of us can salvage some dignity outta the craziness of this year’s tourney.
