Talk about "off topic" but that is what this particular section is for. Any NCAA "March Madness" basketball fans out there? ... and your team would be?

Golden Gophers, Tubby Time. Sweet 16 would be good for them this year because they lost thier 2 best recruits and last month our starting PG became academinally inelegible (Since when do athletes need good grades??)
I heard that Thursday and Friday (This week) are the top 2 days for vascetomies, March Madness marathon and a bag of peas, I am setting that up for next year when my Gophers will be making a deep run.

Gotta say, being an Ohio State alum, we are taught that our heart "bleeds scarlet and grey". Hopeful, but I can't see the Buckeyes making it to the finish line.
In that case - Kentucky Wildcats. Lived in Lexington, KY for a number of years and that team gets into your blood very easily. Kansas will be tough but I believe U.K. can do it.

If I rooted for the local team for every place I have lived I would not have many teams to root against.
Looks like one and done for my Gophers.

Purdue!
I know, shocking to most folks except for Purdue fans... sweet 16.
Even though I picked Duke to win it all, would like to see Purdue make it back to Indy to play in the final 4.
Been a very crazy tourney so far so really hard to tell who will step up this weekend and survive.

Hard not to be pulling for Butler, not only are they a great Cinderella story and seem like a good group of kids but thier mascot is so cool.

With a few very crazy upsets this year, I would be quite hesitant to attempt to pick this one.
