All,
Just thought I'd beat tomorrow's headline writers to the punch with my oh-so-obvious subject line quip. Honestly, isn't it a little like having H. L. Mencken as your Poolmeister? Without the vicious racism, I mean? Actually, not that you care, but I've been thinking about Mencken a lot recently, two quotes of his especially. It was Mencken who said, "Democracy is the idea that the people know what they want - and they deserve to get it good and hard" and my personal favorite, "Saying 'my country right or wrong' is like saying, 'my mother drunk or sober." Well, amen to that, brother.
Anyway, Butler beats Maryland. Almost all of us got that one wrong. Who were the Nostradamuses among us who picked it correctly? Well, congratulations are in order for Dana Duffy, first-timer Kate Lewis, Hank Z, Red Willow and her uncle David Prown. Nice going, people. That's some solid prognosticating.
And now, back to the games.
