It’s eight o’clock here in College Park, and with Terp men’s basketball season done with, I figure I might as well hit the blogosphere. Usually I’d be watching Prison Break right now, but the writer’s strike assured that we’d get a shortened season.

Anyway, TV isn’t the real reason I am posting that. That’s not what this blog is for. At first I was going to write an entry about how sick to my stomach Tom Gordon makes me, but then I remembered, pro sports isn’t the point of this blog, either. So…I settled upon this food for thought…

What I want to know is whether I’m imaginative or boring for successfully picking all four number one seeds to advance to the Final Four of the NCAA Tournament? I did pick all four No. 1 seeds, and I feel pretty good about myself and my place in my “just-for-fun” pool. But when I have told people about this, they’ve laughed at me. Why? I just don’t understand. Isn’t picking something that’s NEVER happened before a risk? Daring. Bold. [Insert another synonym here]. Someone even called me lucky. I was like, “What??!! How is that lucky?”

So, what are your thoughts on this? Am I risky or boring for doing this? Post those comments below!
