March Madness

By , March 17, 2004

I have an entry in the ESPN Tournament Challenge. Each and every one of you should go there, create a free account, and fill out a bracket. There is no fee to enter, but the winner gets $10,000.00. Seems like a good deal to me. Of course, if you are like me you don’t actually follow the sport, and will be selecting winners based on such factors as the university’s educational reputation (I choose the “smarter” schools to lose based on my assumption that dumb people make for better athletes), the relative cuteness of the school’s mascot, or the color scheme of the uniforms.

By my reckoning Kentucky and Stanford are out early, Xavier, Manhattan, Pacific, Nevada, and Duke will win games. So will St. Joseph’s because, well, gosh– they have god on their side!

Oh, also– once you fill out your bracket, search the groups for the word Peasprout. I think I am the only group with that word in the title, but just in case, join the group called “Peasprout’s Pals.”

Hurry, by the start of the tournament on Thursday morning, the contest is locked. If we want a chance at that ten grand we need to act quickly.

    I don’t have any clue what I just did, but I’m entered for $10,000 by golly! :P

  3. Haha! I was almost offended this morning until I remembered the monkeys. My hair is not bushy, but my kitty always tried to hide in it at night when she was little. Those monkeys look way smaller than a kitten.

    *Blush~~* That was a loooong time ago! I was painfully shy then and don’t hide behind large objects anymore when I meet new friends…=P

    I vaguely remember sending you cartoon Pea playing basketball for your b’day. What happen to that? I think it’s only fair that we trade? I lost an mp3 you sent me long ago and if you send it to me/music you mix, I’ll send you my 22 page comic book full of cute drawings of girls kissing boys, deal?

    Heh, I know you didn’t necessarily mean anything by it, but you weren’t the first person who asked, so I figured I’d address it. You were just the lucky straw that broke the lucky camel’s lucky back!
    :D

    @Bamber, That camel doesn’t sound very lucky to me; I fear he may be dead.
