Round Two, Day One

People,

The third day of the tourney has ended. And what a day Day Three was. Duke lost (bwa ha ha ha ha), UCLA almost lost, Notre Dame lost (I love it when they lose), and the incredibly meager Big 10 got two wins yesterday. Amazing.

Big genius yesterday was a new entrant, my groovy cousin-in-law Tim Bowman. Sarah Bowman is the white sheep of my family; smart, hardworking, good-looking, successful; all the things the rest of the Knotts just aren't. She's the Marilyn Munster of the Knott family. Tim, yesterday's genius, is her hubbie. For those of you who don't know them, they live in Bloomington. Sarah works with Steve at MCPL, and Tim is getting his Ph.D. in whatever they now call the school that used to teach Library Science. I suppose it's Something Information Something, but the point is, smarter people go there than when we were all there. I suspect nobody in Tim's program brings leftover fruit in a Playmate cooler to distribute to lunchmates, for example. Anyhoo, Tim got 7 of 8 games correct yesterday; a damn fine showing.

Here then, are the results and standings after Day Three. Sad to think that after today, there'll only be 15 games left. Poolwise, it looks as though Chris D., Willow, Dana and the horde of you a point or two behind them, are locked in a titanic struggle for supremacy. Those of us well back are looking for the Cheetos, popping open another YooHoo, and deciding whether a shower is really necessary on a day like today.

Enjoy the day.

You're *%^&$(&^ right you can, you little (*#&$**%%&@^. In fact, could you really be related to me without having that ability? It might really be our family's great contribution to life.

$^%*#$$&ly yours,
