Have you ever seen a more pathetic game than Dayton-Depaul?

No. I had to turn it off during the second OT, it was too pathetic to continue watching. In the closing seconds of regulation and again in the first overtime with the score tied Dayton didn't even try to score to win the game. UConn should kill DePaul.

Yes, I was thinking something was wrong with me for hating that game, as close as it was.

Hmmm... I see a pattern emerging here in my selections.

On CBS SportsLine, I'm doing terrible, largely because I used the same picks in all of the various contests, including the SI Pool.

Over on ESPN, where I had 5 entries, 3 of those entries are doing horrible (including the one that matches those picks on CBS SportsLine), but the remaining two have 22 correct selections. In fact, those last 2 entries are identical down to the last game, where on one I picked Duke and on the other I picked Kentucky. So, if this pattern of higher seeds winning the vast majority of games continues, I'll be in Fat City. The only games I missed on those 2 entries were Michigan State and Florida, which also are the only two games in which the lower-seeded team won...

By the way, so far there's a whole bunch of perfect entries in all of the contests. So, if there's no major upsets from here on out, in theory anyway, the $1M might be won this year by someone.
