MARCH MADNESS/BRACKETOLOGY

I work in an office where myself and the receptionst are the only females.
With that said.....there is a lot of testosterone flowing in the office and and a lot of talk about sports.
Now that March Madness (NCAA National Championship) had begun, that is pretty much the only topic for discussion lately. In fact, this talk started a couple of weeks ago just in anticipation of this event.
About a month ago the bosses decided it would be a great idea to sign up for DirectTV and to install a 42" flat panel television in the kitchen. Let's just say that I am not sure that has increased productivity in the office. Yesterday half of the office was in the kitchen glued to the Utah State game (I work with a lot of Aggies). Too bad they lost by 1 point!
Every year they guys at work put together their brackets. They always invite me to participate, but this year is the first year that I have actually submitted a bracket. If nothing else, it makes the games more exciting to watch because I actually care who wins. For not knowing much about the different teams, I am actually doing pretty well. Right now I am tied for 2nd place. There are still a lot of games to be played and anything can happen, but Go me!!

I shouldn't have said anything. Three of my picks lost yesterday and I dropped down to being tied with 3 others for 6th. Oh well.
