Day Two results, Round One totals

Dearest Poolies,

Ah, Round One is over. As usual, I'm in the crapper, but I'm not at the bottom, so I guess that's ok. As dull as Day One was, Day Two made up for it and more. Six upsets, including two 12 seeds and two 13 seeds moving on. It was amazing to me how many people picked those games. I was going to list everyone who did, but it just would've been too long a laundry list.

That said, there was a genius pick yesterday. Together, sibs Ellie and Ben Peterson managed to pick all six upsets correctly, an almost unimaginable (by me, anyway) feat of prognostication. Congrats to our budding Nostradamuses. (The fact that the juniors love to pick the upsets more or less uniformly does not blunt their accomplishment, at least not in my eyes.) They have, as you might guess, shot up the standings.

After Round One then, the standings are:

	Name	R1D1	R1D2	Round 1

Let's hope Round Two is as fun. If I get a chance (I have a two year old climbing over me more or less nonstop) I'll try to get out a message showing who has picked what today. Don't hold your collective breath(s).

Later, my pets.
