Quack Quack!

I rooted for Kansas to beat UCLA last night...not realizing that my best bracket at the moment has UCLA in the final. True, I'm toast in the HUGE pool I'm in with like 500 people, but I'm in first place in Pauly's pool. I need Oregon to beat Florida today. That would help, like, SO much. Florida has had too much success lately. Duck 'em.

Oh, God, I didn't really write that, did I, that's just awful.

Turning our attention to poker...could I stop getting knocked out of tournaments on 3-outers, please? I'm happy with how I've been playing, with a few ghastly mistakes along the way that won't be repeated, but in my last three tournaments (or multi SNGs) I've been knocked out holding QQ. Against A-3, 66, and (this one hurt) Q-10. I flopped the set, he flopped top pair, he went runner-runner for the flush. Which is what I did to my commode after I vomited into it.

UPDATE: Well, that'll teach me to talk about my brackets before the Final Four is set. What with Oregon losing and North Carolina going 17 minutes without a field goal to close out the game and overtime. Awesome. Well, at least now I don't have to give a crap and can just root for Ben Howland to win a title.
