I got stomped.

Wow, the poll has ended and I got stomped worse than Arizona was by Louisville.
I got beat worse than Ike beat Tina. I got beat worse than the Cubs in the playoffs the last 3 years. Ouch, low blow to Scrubbie nation.

I mean come on, the beard wasn't that bad. Was it?

This is the new shit.

Michigan State is holding my chances with the office pool on by a thread. I should've went with my first instincts on the bracket I had 'Nova in my original final game against Michigan State. Oh well. My other three teams got beat(Memphis, Gonzaga and Pitt) too.

Oh, by the way. My boy Tiger is back for all you haters. Watch out in Augusta, GA. He is coming strong.

bracket madness/fantasy baseball

Ten votes and only 2 of which are in favor of my beard. I am shocked, I didn't see this coming. I have shaved it off as of Thursday. And coinincidently my NCAA bracket went to hell with the shave. I knew I should have kept it going. Memphis and Gonzaga both lost in the sweet 16 round and I had them in the final four. I'm hosed if Michigain State doesn't win it all.

I did my fantasy baseball draft on Thursday night too. Here is my team. I think I did pretty good for a twelve person league. I had the 4 spot of 12.

C- Jorge Posada - Yankees
1st- Lance Berkman - Astros
2nd- Kelly Johnson - Braves
SS- JJ Hardy - Brewers
3rd- Chipper Jones - Braves
OF- Ryan Braun - Brewers
OF- Jay Bruce - Reds
OF- Rick Ankiel - Cards
util- Denard Span - Twins
bench- Alexi Casilla - Twins
bench- Brad Nelson - Brewers

SP- CC Sabathia - Yankees
SP- Cole Hamels - Phillies
RP- Carlos Marmol - Cubs
RP- Matt Lindstrom - Marlins
P- Fransico Liriano - Twins

1-2-3 Eat Kids

Hell yeah. The women's Maryland Basketball team's rally cry is "Eat Kids." This is awesome, what a bunch of bad asses. I just saw this and heard about it on JRIB(Jim Rome is Burning). How much tougher can they be? What would scare the other team more than this, you could go with "Kill Puppies", "Burn Bibles" or even "Steal from the Blind". All of which will get you funny looks but none of which will scare them as much.

Trot Nixon was released yesterday. Big woop. See ya, you had ok career. Brad Nelson here we come. I can't wait to see this guy in the bigs.

In the other headlines of the last couple days. We had some reports that were so obvious they weren't worth the time it took to type it up. Included are Cutler doesn't talk to his coach, T.O. to skip voluntary workouts and Plex doesn't want to go to jail. Really? In other news; grass is green, the sky is blue and water is wet.

NCAA tourney resumes tonight. I wish they could start the games a little earlier though. Doesn't the NCAA know that tonight is poker night at my neighbor's house. I also have a fantasy baseball draft tonight.

The website is starting to be developed tonight. It's coming soon.

Monday

Does anybody have a case of the Monday's? Another lovely day in the office. But this isn't about work it's about sports.


I'm reading the Brewers message board and come across this gem. Dave Bush sporting, well a bush on his face. I like Bush but this beard is really kinda creepy. It makes my March Madness rally face growth look cool. I'll let you compare and we'll put up a poll on the topic.

Now here is my beard.

In other sports news. The Packers open up the season at home against the Bears on Sunday Sept. 13 on NBC's night game. They also play Detroit on Thanksgiving this year.

Jeff Suppan is the opening day pitcher for the Crew against the Giants. Then it's Yo and Manny in the next two starts with Looper pitching the home opener against the Cubs and Bush having the last start in the rotation. Hoff will probably start the season on the DL, that isn't the best news but McClung should be a good fill in if Carlos isn't up to it.

Wisconsin and Marquette were both eliminated from the NCAA tournament. They won a game each which is more than most people expected. Congrats to both of them, see ya next year. Both teams will lose key players and new guys will come up and take over in their places.

I'm in the process of starting up a website. I'm going to try get it going within the next month. It will be more of what I write in the blog. I will also have a couple my cousins writing on the new site with me. My cousins; Tyler and Bryan will be on board. Tyler had a blog last summer, here is a link to see a sample of his writing. http://www.brewersrant.blogspot.com/. More info to come soon.

Going Mental

Wow. Badgers win in OT after coming from behind. Does this sound like a dream? It kinda is, afterall they were terrible at coming back in the regular season. I guess they did it when it counted. Go Red. Nothing bad to say this time. Except this, Could you please win by a healthy margin Sunday? My ticker can't take it anymore. We were watching as I was bartending, Todd and myself. Todd O. is a big time Wisconsin fan and my uncle. Todd already has a sketchy ticker and mine won't be far behind if you keep this up. Yowzers. Remember the Shaq rap to Kobe a year or so ago? I'm going to have to get him to dis the Gophers who were stomped in the first round. "Hey Tubby, tell me how the loss tastes." The other games that had good endings were Marquette, Tennessee and Sienna over Ohio State. Marquette won and I was pulling for them even though I had them losing in my bracket. Big Ten is doing alright too. Wins by Michigain, Michigain State, Wisconsin and Perdue gave us some cred.

Brewers bats are tearing it up in spring training too. Hardy, Hart, McGehe and Weeks are hitting well. I know I typed Weeks, it is a suprise to me too. Keep it up boys, opener is only 3 weeks away. The USA team is in the final rounds of the WBC, take home a title(meaningless as it might be). You kept it interesting with the comeback win against Puerto Rico.

Gotta get some sleep.
