Why Swim Upstream?!


A few observations...
THE RESULT of Jordan's decision not to fill out a bracket? Probably that his time as lunch club president is nearing an end (re: impeachment).
BECAUSE they have the same finsl four (inter-firm consultations?), the race between Morgan and Chris is going to come down to whether Georgetown (Morgan) or Texas A&M (Chris) makes the finals--I like Morgan's chances on that a lot better than Chris's, but if neither of those two teams makes it to the finals then Morgan had better hope Tennessee upsets Ohio State and Wisconsin makes an early exit, otherwise H8BYU will be impossible for Fife to catch. BTW Morgan, what were ye smoking when ye picked Notre Dame to go to the Elite Eight? That was bold, but so out-of-nowhere and irrational that that's normally the kind of improbable risk you see Sheed take. Speaking of which...
AFTER THE FIRST ROUND, Sheed is in the penthouse--and don't expect that to change much, mates. With the exception of prognosticating Durant and Co. to go to the finals, Sheed picked the lower seed to win every single game in his bracket. Why go to all the trouble of trying to brilliantly forecast upsets when men (almost) as smart as us spent entire days locked in a conference room determining how to seed the shin-dig?
