Oh, The Madness

Every March right before the madness starts, John has us fill out a bracket for a Family Home Evening activity. I don't follow basketball, and I don't go out of my way to watch it. However, I do like basketball and can get sucked into watching a good game.

This year, I didn't feel like filling out a bracket, so John just read me the choices and I told him which ones to put down for me. I put no thought into it, have no strategies, and I have no idea who the underdogs are. Every year I use the same method. My brackets aren't too bad either. I chose Duke to win; don't know why, but I did, and they did. However, John chose Duke to win as well. But, I always thought your bracket wins if more of the teams win that you chose to win than someone else. After all these years, I just learned it's a point system! So, John beat me by 10 points.

Trevan's bracket had Temple going all the way. His reasoning: "Temples are good, right?"

Sophie won by A LOT! She based her picks on what names she liked. I was 2nd, and Jeryl far behind. Just goes to show . . .
