I know, it's been so long since the 52 games last week. They lace them up again starting tomorrow, cutting the field down from 16 to the final four.

No predictions from me. They always detract from my enjoyment. I am cheering for Wisconsin, duh, and apologize to Badger Nation for doubting they would make it this far. (Emily may be one soon; the college selection process is in the home stretch). The bad part is they play my second favorite team left, Butler. Several days later I still have a smile on my face thinking of the end of their game with Pitt. You really don't get that kind of excitement from the NBA.

Anyone who wants to make predictions has the floor. I am happier just watching.
