Another Great Year:
Thanks to all participants in this year's March Madness Extravaganza! In one of the mostly tightly contested contests of all time, two victors emerged. In first place, with a PERFECT Final Four bracket, Chandler! Chandler claimed his second consecutive family pool.
When asked for comment, Chandler responded, "Yeah, I am excited. I guess...I mean it is always nice to win. But winning the Scheeren family pool is sort of like winning the 100 yard dash at the Special Olympics. You just don't have to run quite as fast."
In related news, Steve Scheeren is no longer paying for the wedding. Steve told March Maniacs that "If that bastard marries my daughter, the pool remains unwinnable. Plus, he is funny looking, and I do not want ugly grandchildren."
In second place, the Commish's wife rejoiced when Mario Chalmers' prayer was answered. She finished in the money for the second time in family pool history. Shanda, unquestionably excited said she was "most excited to beat my dumbass husband again. I mean, he writes this column like he has a clue, then picks Xavier in the Final Four. Smart gamblers never bet on emotion. I mean, last year he finished 4 places behind Pacer. Pacer is a freaking DOG for crying out loud. Smart gamblers bet on logic and intelligence. My husband is not a smart gambler."
The Commish agreed with Shanda's sentiment, citing his marriage to her as a prime example.
Other notable performances included Sara and Lee, both of whom selected Kansas to cut down the nets and fell a few points short of placing, and Kevin J, who posted the highest score of any incorrect champion selector. Sara's excitement was dampened by finishing just two places out of the money... and by the fact she is actually going to marry Chandler (seriously dude - bad move...)
The Commish and fellow maniacs are already looking forward to 2009 - we hope to have you back again. Except Chandler.
By the way click on some ads so I can send my brother-in-law (who is really one of my favorite humans on the planet -for those who didn't get the sarcasm... I like my wife too... and the Special Olympics... relax folks....) his second trophy. He earned it. Argh.
