What a fantastic finish to the Pitt/Villanova game.
And a special “wow wow wow” goes out to Jody-Feldman, who is not only atop the Blog Tournament Challenge, but is 66TH IN THE ENTIRE ESPN TOURNAMENT CHALLENGE.
66TH. Out of 5,000,000+ entrants.
Wow.
Wow wow wow.
My bracket is hosed…
2nd

on a blog i don’t understand.

I’m 4,137,562nd.
That’s not good, is it?
Holy cow, Jody, great job! I have to tell you, though, that we picked the same winner. That doesn’t bode well for you, sorry.
my word verification is fultesti, which can almost be rearranged to read – its futile.
Congratulations, Jody! Awesome.
Wow, congrats! I thought about entering but I know nothing about sports.
Jody, congrats! I assume you used the good old, choose your birthday, subtract 79, add the date, multiply by 2 and divide by 10,000?
Well, it worked! Awsome!
Nathan,
Did you watch the finish to the Division II championship game Saturday afternoon? One of the best shots to win a championship I’ve seen in a long time.
Congrats Jody! I’m still bitter over Michigan State… though my bracket was pretty hosed before that. I guess I’ll just have to woo Nathan with my charm and good looks… oh and maybe some decent writing. 🙂
Go Louisville! Go Conneticut! Go Jody!
Your bracket looks so neat compared with all my crossings out and red – something like my editing.
It was all going so well until sweet sixteen…
Could be an opening line to a YA novel? No, then again, maybe not.
Good luck in the last rounds everyone.
Way to go, Jody!
I think I’m mathematically eliminated at this point even if Louisville wins. My dreams of being critiqued are crushed, so I guess it’ll be the usual (or hopeful positively unusual!) query letter from me to Nathan! This was fun, the blog is great and I’m glad I recently found it. Thanks, Nathan.
Well, my ten minute totally random picks left me in 4,600,000 range which is, to say the least putrid. Jody-Feldman must have actually researched the dang thing and had some good luck. Good job!
Nathan, that was really fun. I hope you figure out a way to do something like that again.

YOU POSTED ON A SATURDAY!?!?!?
I pretty much suck at this, though my random pick of Villanova elevated my percentage considerably. I can’t remember who else I picked (other than the winner) so I don’t even know who I should be rooting for. Go, Somebody!
Major congratulations to Jody! Dayum…
Jody-Feldman I celebrate your success! I will comfort myself by petting my many puppies. And then I will write the hell out of my second manuscript, or as Nathan so aptly stated, “Bah!” Because I should be polishing up that query, dang.
