Go Oregon, Georgetown, and OSU. And Keep Your Shoes On!

With the Southern Illinois Saluki loss the other night, I figured I was totally
out of my NCAA March Madness pools, but with a little analysis I realized I
still might have a chance. Sure it’s a long shot, but there are only a few
things that need to happen in the next two days of basketball that keep me
alive.
The first thing is simply that The Ohio State must win, since I’ve got them winning the whole kit and caboodle. But for the rest of everything I’ve got the underdogs winning, which if it happens, that would be my upper hand. I’ve got Oregon beating Florida, and then beating either Kansas or UCLA to get to the championship game. Then I’ve got Georgetown beating North Carolina, but losing to The Ohio State. That sets up my Oregon/The Ohio State final, with the Buckeyes winning in a defensive battle.
Sometimes those crazy brackets are so confusing, but not as confusing as my latest trip to the movie theater.
I went to see "Shooter," the Mark Wahlberg flick where he plays a sniper. It’s about five minutes before showtime and in the row ahead of me something disturbing happens: Suddenly I see two people, and four feet in white socks (at least the socks looked clean), using the headrests in front of them as footrests. These weren’t even rebellious teenagers, the couple looked to be in the mid to late twenties. Cell phones and screaming babies aside, the movie-going experience is quickly becoming a chore, especially since someone’s parents didn’t impress upon their kids that A) You shouldn’t put your shoes on the seat in front of you, and B) Even worse, you shouldn’t take your shoes off and put your feet on the seat in front of you. Sometimes I just hate people.
Well, I would like all of you out there, no matter your NCAA picks, to cheer on Oregon, Georgetown, and of course The Ohio State. I would also like to remind you to keep your shoes on.
And of course, Vote for Sanjaya!
That’s it for this one! I’m The Dude on the Right!! L8R!!!
