Sorry Again --- Worktime

I've had to apologize a lot recently for not doing much work here. Well, I'm back from spring break and am preparing for a flurry of articles in the next few weeks. I'm planning on doing a live blog diary (that's been a real popular concept recently) for the NCAA Basketball Championship if I can. I've got that Kobe-LeBron article. I'm going to do a hockey article as well. I just decided I am going to try to become a better all-around sports fan, especially in regards to hockey. I have yet to choose a team to root for (as being from Indiana makes it an open market), but the leaders right now are the Capitals and Bruins. So, I'm going to do a pretty general hockey article and talk a little about whichever team I end up choosing.

In the meantime, here are some things on my mind:

Chelsea drew Liverpool for the Champions League Quarterfinals. This was the draw everyone was hoping to avoid, but we all knew it was coming... Well, here's me tipping my spring break shot glass to Hiddink continuing his unbeaten streak as Chelsea manager.

My picks thus far, through two days of the tournament, have been what can be described as generally very average. I'm in the 60th percentile on ESPN. Thirteen of my Sweet Sixteen choices remain alive through the first round. FSU, VCU, and Wake were knocked out, while Louisville, Kansas, MSU, UCONN, Purdue, Marquette, Memphis, Oklahoma, Syracuse, Gonzaga, UNC, Duke, and Pittsburgh remain. I have Louisville, Memphis, Pitt, and UNC advancing to the Final Four with UNC defeating Louisville in the championship game.
