"March Madness"

It's that time of year again. March Madness.


And we've already had the usual upsets. Duke took it on the chin tonight. Because it's a prissy college, most people are glad for the Blue Devil demise.


Last year's champion bid adieu in the first round. Connecticut. I never can remember how to spell it but methinks this could be spot on, er, right on. Not sure when "spot on" became so fashionable, but yours truly refuses to recognize it as a phrase, and you will never here it uttered by my larynx. 


And Notre Dame lost tonight. What happened to the luck of the Irish. And who can forget George O'Leary. He landed his dream job-head coach-but was ousted for lying on his resume. Never coached a game. 


Harvard vs. Vandy, two brainy schools, slugged it out Thursday night with the Commodores winning by nine. Wonder if Lionel Ritchie matriculated at Vandy? At Rowdy High in 1969, our Star Student, a hotshot quarterback too, went to Vandy on a football scholarship. He now has his Phd. 


And Syracuse squeaked by NC Asheville because Fab Melo was not spot on with his grades. I mean he was academically ineligible. And who can forget Dexter Manly, who graduated from Oklahoma State? Later on it was learned that Dexter couldn't read or write.


March Madness. It's that time of the year again. Spot on!
