That sucks.   The VCU Saint Mary's game is very good.

So far, so good! I know it's only the first day but my bracket is still perfect. I've usually had at least one blemish by now! We'll see what the rest of the night brings.

I lost two and they were the Big 10 teams, Minnesota and Maryland.   I don't think the conference will do well this year.   Wisconsin is up early but Michigan and State have touch opening rounds.

Yeah, stuff happens. My car is getting old but still love her. Got her dropped at a shop, call in morning. Left keys in drop box. What really sucks is have 730 tee time. Good news; home course. Bad news: playing as a single so have to walk about a mile, grab cart. Drive back to house load up and drive back. Any big upsets?

No real upsets except for the Big 10,  Maryland and Minnesota.   These were not real big surprises though.   Maryland started strong but hasn't played well as of late and Minnesota has had an up and down season against the Big 10 teams. 

I've got Villanova, Gonzaga, N. Carolina and Iowa St in the final 4.   U?

I went 10/12 on my picks the first day, not too bad. My final 4 is Villanova, Gonzaga, UNC, and Louisville. Then I have Gonzaga beating UNC in the championship.

I could have been 16-0 yesterday but for Nevada! I guess I reached too far for a second 5-12 upset! I called the Middle Tennessee/Minnesota game.

I'm kind of taking a bit of a beating on day 2, but so far it's not terrible!

That was a hell of a win. Four straight sweet 16's for bucky. It would be great if they could get one more win for this group of seniors. I like what Hayes said after the game.

Basketball is obviously a notch down on my winter sports list, but my bruv and I watched the local school get bounced last night. UD hung with Wichita State and then lost it in the final five minutes. Oh well. Back to work.

The NCAA tournament is the only basketball I really watch.    So many games in just a short time frame.

      One Swing With Many Clubs, or One Club With Many Swings?

      By GaLefty ·

      If I can take a full swing, I'll use the stock club for that yardage.  I can't really get creative.  Just don't have that ability.  In the past, I used a sand wedge for all my shots around the green, opening or closing the face and moving the ball back or forward in my stance to get the flight I wanted.  I am trying now to use different clubs around the green.  I'm less likely to flub it but I struggle with distance control.  More practice required.

      Hack it Out Golf Podcast and iacas (Erik)

      By GaLefty ·

      If you like golf podcasts, Hack It Out is tough to beat. Lots of interesting info and it's very funny.  Lou is one of the hosts along with Greg Chalmers and Mark Crossfield.  They love to give each other a hard time.  Lou catches most of it, but he takes it well and dishes out his fair share.  Great show.
