You go, Retrievers!


Up until yesterday, number 16 seeds in the NCAA mens basketball tournament had a combined record of 0-135. That changed when the University of Virginia-- the top seed in the whole tournament-- was absolutely destroyed by 16-seed University of Maryland at Baltimore County, who won 75-54.

It was a great day for the underdog. It was also a terrible day for my bracket, which had UVA winning the championship....

Mark, Basketball? And at UVA's expense? How can you ignore the great hockey in your backyard? Women's Frozen Four @ the U! Last night Ohio State lost to Clarkson in one OT, and Colgate beat Wisconsin in double OT. East rules. Be sure to get your ticket at the U for the Sunday Championship game! Just saying. Priorities Mark.

Aargh! I'm so glad I didn't watch that game. Can't believe it. UVA always seems to fall hard when they fall (:

It is a great underdog story, though.

And I consoled myself about UVA by watching that hockey hair video from earlier this week.

I also had UVA going all the way. I'm taking it as a sign I should focus on work this weekend.
