Pool Blog

I totally forgot about the Pool Blog! I posted all the updates there if you dont have access to email or youre at work and youre using your home email or any one of the myriad of situaitons where you can get to the web but not your email from wherever you are right now.
The Blog site is: http://jeffspool.blogspot.com/
I figured out the side by side situation on my TV. So that personal nightmare is over. The biggie for area residents is the Market-Kentucky game. If Market just doesnt make dumb mistakes they should win this. Theyre have better personell that the Wildcats. Ive decided to go with Market in full screen HD while monitor the other 3 games (which are good) via almost constant use of the "last" button on the remote. The other games are still early but UNLV is up 12 with about 10 left in the first. Thats a huge 8-9 game. The picking split is 89-68 UNLV. Baylor-Purdue and Pitt-Oral Roberts are both within a couple points. 3 people took ORU over Pitt. Purdue has 131 pickers.
As you may have noticed. I am not the biggest fan of the Market Golden Warrior Eagles. Why you may ask? Well Ill tell ya. Im a Wisconsin guy. Went to Madison. Work at Madison. Lived there for 15 years. I bleed Badger red. Well everybody bleeds badger red. I bet that really horks the Market fans.
Anyway I believe its our duty as sports fans to support our teams unquestionable and to denigrate our fiercest rivals at any and all occasions. Thats why whenever talk turns to Badger Hockey I feel obligated to point out that Minnesota's Doug Woog has never won a National Championship. Its always fun to watch Fox when they broadcast the Minn-Wis game. Paul Braun, Doug Woog and Tom Saggisor broadcast the game. Sags ALWAYS wears his national championship ring.
Anyway,with Market as Buckys instate basketball rival its my duty to minimize their achievements, rag on their powerpuff schedule and provide for a general atmosphere of mocking. Its nothing personal. Its just a sports thing. But as part of the code you have be realistic when the teams play. This year Market was the better team when they played back in December. Ok there. I said it.
Market is up by 4 at the half after some guy hit a 3 as time ran out. It wasnt very exciting. Just a run of the mill 3. Nothing close to a Brian Butch of the glass special to beat Indiana. Or a Michael Flowers bank it in, steal the inbounds pass and then make the play of the year by throwing the ball high into the air while falling out of bounds to run the remaining time off the clock to beat Texas in Austin.
Ok where was I? Pool Blog. The address is at the top of the email.
