The NCAA Basketball tournament starts today and my co-workers are running around like it's Christmas. There's a projector screen in the conference room and the Warehouse manager brought his satellite from home that sits in the bushes outside. Every now and then the picture will disappear and they get on their walkie talkie's and talk back and forth until the satellite is positioned just the right way for the picture to appear again. I saw a lunch menu floating around and heard some debates on how hot the wings should be. I'm waiting to see someone walk by with 12 pack of bud light. That hasnt happened yet.
They study and compare each other's brackets and give their opinions on how many "upsets" there will be. I filled out a bracket but didnt turn in my $10.00 for the pot because I just dont feel like donating to someone else's wallet again this year.
I use careful tactics in picking my winning teams. For example when choosing who would win between Notre Dame and Winthrop I picked Notre Dame. Why? Because I figured since Notre Dame had such a bad year in football maybe they will do better in something else...like basketball. Besides, Winthrop has the word "win" in it's name so they're probably too cocky.
I really care alot about this tournament.
