Feeling lucky

Well, Kevin Trudeau is going to jail for about 10 years. I blogged about that slime ball a year or so ago. He is literally a felon that was continuing to rip people off with his bogus books and commercials. He didn't just get in with the wrong crowd, he just decided to spend his whole life ripping people off. I like to think I might have had a little something to do with sending him to the big house.

Now that I'm feeling lucky, bring on the NCAA Tournament. I participate in the Coke Rewards program since I've drunk approximately a lake-full of the product so far in my life. Anyway, the last time I went on, they said I've automatically got a game chosen for me from the tournament. I don't know if that is randomly done or everyone gets an unwinnable game. If my team wins, I win something. They haven't said what. It had better be good, because I think the odds are stacked against me. The team they chose for me is playing Florida, the number one team in the nation. Its not clear who their opponent will be yet. It will be the winner of Albany and Mt. St. Mary's play-in game. Clash of the Titans. I have not heard of either school. Albany has a rather pedestrian 18-14 record, and St. Mary's record is 16 wins, 16 losses. We'll see how it turns out. I've got nothing to lose, which is good, because I think I've got pretty much nothing to win.

I'll get nothing for this, but the two non-Coke related teams I'm rooting for will be Kentucky and Oregon. Each can make it a round or more, or could get eliminated right off the bat. We'll see.
