Champ Week Begins!! 03/10/08

Howdy folks!

First off, for some quality jamming, check out this Bluegrass Underground show. Mike Gordon is featured on a couple of tracks. Hot stuff, but it is one of the original SugarMegs Real Audio files, so you can only listen to it with Real Player.

Sorry about the hiatus. My first Fantasy Baseball draft of the season was Saturday, and I was preparing the days prior. And yesterday I was just being lazy.

No quality NCAA basketball action this evening, though Gonzaga/San Diego should be a great match-up. I would have picked the Zags (-7.0) until I watched last night's WCC semi-final. San Diego might have left everything on the floor getting the victory over St. Mary's, but I wouldn't bet on in.

So let's recap the end of my disaster last week.

Baylor got crushed at home to down-trodden Texas A&M, dropping my season total to 21-24-2. I think this AP sentence says it all: "The Bears, the Big 12's second-best 3-point shooting team, went 4-for-19 from long range and shot 21-for-63 (a season-low 33 percent) overall". They went on to mention that according to Bear's officials, this was the first time no player on a team scored in double figures since the introduction of the shot clock.

Maybe I'm not the one that is cursed, but I'm cursing the teams I'm picking. Well we won't find out tonight, but maybe tomorrow when the line comes out on Butler/Cleveland St. I'll certainly be returning to some serious prognostication once the big-boy tournaments get rolling Wednesday.

adios-A.B.
