So just as I suspected, Drexel got robbed of a spot in the NCAA basketball tournament and VCU was underseeded, getting a 12 seed. And also as I suspected, both teams are proving the NCAA basketball committee wrong...
It's the most wonderful time of the year...the NCAA basketball tournament time. In just a couple of weeks, we'll be treated to a Thursday and Friday of wall-to-wall first round games, hyped up by office pools throughout the country...

My wife was on Facebook last night and I was shocked to hear some of the comments about Joe Paterno's death...some from people I know (and a reason I shun Facebook)...
