I have never been so happy to have my NCAA bracket busted!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had Kansas going all the way to the Elite Eight, yet I did NOT root for them in yesterday’s Round of 32 matchup yesterday. I cheered for 8-seed Arkansas, who knocked off 1 Kansas 72-71 yesterday. It seemed like Kansas didn’t even try in the final 3 seconds despite being down only one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I finished the day in 20th place out of 35 in my bracket league with a total of 30. Embarrassingly, I’m still losing to both of the main butt sluts, who are tied for 4th place with 34. The good news is, I still have a relatively high maximum possible total of 154. Six of my Elite Eight picks are still live, as are all of my Final Four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My picks for today’s games:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Grizzlies remain in third place in the Western Conference – but with the same record as second-place Sacramento – following their 133-119 win over Golden State last night. Next up: at home vs. Dallas on Monday. That game will be on NBA TV at 7 and it will be Hoops for St. Jude<\/a> Night at FedExForum. It will also be Memphis Islamic Heritage Night<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today is National Poultry Day<\/a>. I’d recommend driving through a Jack Pirtle’s location to celebrate. The closest one to Downtown is at Thomas and Chelsea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Trumpster suggested he will be arrested on Tuesday<\/a> and encouraged his wacko followers to protest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From ABC 24: Watch Jeghetto’s Superheroes Puppet Parade march down Beale<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n There will be a hiring event<\/a> at the Hard Rock on Beale from 9 to 11 AM Monday. They’re hiring for all hourly positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s it. It’s a rather slow news day. Back tomorrow, if there’s anything to report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have never been so happy to have my NCAA bracket busted!
