Shamrock15 is starting to come into focus. Fortunately, it's still too fuzzy for me to write a whole lot this morning. Not to mention, I'm lazy.
Still, a few thoughts:
Lisa Perez sits in first. I'm relieved. Lisa actually led after Day 1, but my spreadsheet failed to credit her with opening day wins by NC State & UAB. Most of you don't pay attention, so I had lots of little "glitches" like that built in. It's not like I'm smart enough to win this thing by picking teams. So that was my plan. Busted. Anyhow, I'm glad to see that Lisa gets her due and spends at least a day basking in the glory that comes with leading a tournament of such prestige. Today's a big day for Lisa, as she hopes her Wahoos win & help her keep pace with everyone who is already thru to the next round with Arizona as their 2.
I'm pleased to welcome Roland Maheux to the top 10. He's a great guy, but his Shamrock success makes me happy because now my brother & I aren't the only people in this pool losing to their dad.
I'm less thrilled to announced that Eric Johnson and Even Chadwick have moved towards the top. Who likes lawyers? Nobody. That's who.
For Shamrock purposes, yesterday's biggest game might have been Notre Dame's win. An Irish loss would have affected a ton of Shamrockers, while Butler's loss leaves those of you who picked Xavier as the only folks with a 6 still standing. Utah's win was big too.....with the Utes having moved on as a 5, there's lots of pressure on Northern Iowa to hold serve later today.
Thanks to everyone who has sent their money! If you haven't, please do.
