When the White Sox won the pennant in '05, I cried (oddly, I did not cry after they won the World Series, I was elated though, of course).

I was not as emotional for my Butler Bulldogs making it to the Final Four, perhaps because I was drained from watching the game so closely. I am probably just as excited though. What a tournament! I feel like an idiot for not just picking them to win the whole damn thing in my brackets, because I didn't know much about college basketball this year anyways (sidenote for sports bettors-- just always homer-it-up!).

Jesus, this city is going to be fun to be in for the next week. I haven't got tickets yet but I'll be there court side. The biggest regret of my life is not seeing a White Sox World Series game (although I did see three playoff games), and I will never miss a sporting event that I want to be at again. It's just cool to say you were there. This is a rare thing, although Butler may be building a dynasty considering they return 6 of their top 7 and are rumored to be in the running for some pretty big classes in the near future.

Anyways, the tournament has been fantastic again this year and tomorrow should have two more fun games. I've got Tennessee and Baylor for the win(s)!



BUTLAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
