Have you ever heard the saying, " If you really want to know some one, give them slow internet and see how they react?" I got to see a side of me last week that normally isn't there. Granted, I have gone months without a wi-fi connection, so a few days of the internet cutting in and out and all of the other problems that came with it, weren't awful, but I did miss out on some good potential blogs. I thought about just sitting down one night and plowing out like 3 or 4 to keep up with the one a day idea but I realized it would just make for some really crappy blog posts and then I would probably get burnt out for a week, or a month, and probably another five years.
I did get to take in a couple good basketball games this weekend. Very proud to be a Duke fan and see them advance to the Final Four. I was highly disappointed that Notre Dame ran out of gas at the end and didn't finish off Kentucky. I think that would have made a ton of people super happy. Michigan State is a little bit of a surprise, but it's Tom Izzo, they seem to always outperform in March. It says a lot about the guy. I wish Gonzaga would have been seeded in another region because it would be nice to see them make a Final Four appearance, Mark Few is very deserving of it. Last but not least Wisconsin, I hope those cheese heads give Kentucky a nice beat down, but I am not sure if they have the legs to stay with them. Kentucky is deep, but they can be beaten as seen on Saturday night.
You want to know what is sad about all of this. The past two years I have not filled out a bracket. 16 year old me would be in fits right now if I knew that I wasn't going to be filling out a bracket. Sad I know. But life is a bit busy and when you don't have a printer set up in your home, its a lot harder to make that happen. It's not like I revile sports now, they just don't consume my life like they use to. We grow up and learn things, and priorities change, and that's okay.
