No More Bragging Rights

As many of you know, Kevin comes from a family of sports enthusiasts. I, on the other hand, apparently tricked Kevin into marrying me by making him think I was a bigger sports fan than I really am (atleast that's what he says). Every March we fill out our NCAA brackets, and I usually do alright--never last, but never first. This year was different story. I chose 7 of the Elite Eight teams correctly. I picked all the Final Four teams correctly. And, I even chose the correct teams for the championship game. But, now my glory has come to an end. I picked Ohio State to win, which did not happen. I can no longer bask in my victory. However, my brackets were pretty awesome. I was in the 96.5 percentile in the ESPN NCAA tournament challenge. It's just too bad I don't bet...I could have won some good money!

Oh my gosh amy - I LOVE that story and for your sake wish ohio state won! That would have been great. I still think it's great you got 7 of the 8 teams correct. I won my family brackets once - by pure luck ( I do like sports but it's a guess when it comes to choosing the teams!!) So, I imagine you are feeling pretty good and I hope you've been milking it!! tell kevin hi!

Too bad! I wish Ohio would've won for you. I am still impressed however by you picking 7 or the 8 teams all all the final 4 teams right. Way to go!
