march madness –> final four March 31st, 2009

mix:
louisville
stanford
university of connecticut
oklahoma

add:
espn360.com

equals:
my upcoming sunday and next tuesday for the final

who i want to win it all: don’t really care but i’d like to see close games with a high level of play. i want the players to not have jitters and play all janky with a bunch of turnovers, ill-advised passing and low scoring percentages.

prediction: uconn with a smatter of “maybe stanford?”
