Fame

Well, there you have it.
Despite significant odds against them, Duke has won it all...
and, almost as importantly, so have we.
I am referring here to the IdiotsBook bracket challenge.
At the start of the NCAA tournament,
Casey and I spent about 45 seconds clicking on teams that
we thought would win, wanted to win, liked the idea of,
liked the team colors of, etc.
We had Duke going all the way
not because we thought they actually could,
but because it seemed wrong to support
another team in order to try to win the bracket challenge.
But Duke pulled through, and therefore so did we.
Zoubek may be more stoked about winning then we are,
but I wouldn't count on it.
It may just be the closest we will ever come to fame.
And who cares that some of the people we beat in the bracket
were less than two years old,
or the invisible friend of my sister-in-law?
A win is a win.
That is the last I am going to say about basketball for another year.
Aren't you relieved?
Now it is back to pictures of Orin,
more pictures of Orin,
and occasionally pictures of Cali,
whenever she does something this ridiculous.
If only she were just a bit smaller...
or if the lunch box we just a bit bigger....
-sigh-
See you soonish.
