This Reminds Me Of My Entire Life

Just checking into the Her Loyal Sons’ Bracketitis NCAA Men’s Basketball National Championship Tournament Bracket Game Hosted By CBS Sportsline.com, I see that I’m right where I’ve been my entire life: Right in the middle of the pack. Hey, if you’re never the winner, then nobody will ever notice you enough to hate you. That’s my motto. It doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, but what do you want? Something memorable? Then someone might notice it and me. And all I’ve ever gotten for being noticed is emergency dental work, so no thanks. My motto used to be “Keep your head down and stay near the on-duty teacher and you wont get hurt, and mom wont have to buy you new glasses again,” but that hardly ever really applies anymore.

Meanwhile, we do have a “leader” on this leader board. Clearly Tom Brown doesn’t mind being noticed. Well lah-dee-f’ing-dah, Tom. (By the way, “Tom Brown?” Like we aren’t going to figure out you’re real name is Tim? Whatever, Tim.)

Fourth from the bottom is “middle of the pack?” Maybe your motto should be “Gross overexaggeration is key to misdirection.”

I wasn’t 4th from the bottom at the time of writing this. But I am considering moving to my fall-back philosophy of life: “Well, if there has to be someone in last place, at least I’m familiar with how to handle it.”

Perhaps you’re hoping for a 4th-Quarter amazing recovery, like last year’s UCLA and Michigan State games?

Personally, I prefer the “lurker” approach. Pick all the favorites and wait for Tim/Tom “lah-di-dah” Brown to crash and burn. Kansas to win the whole thing? I don’t think so, Dorothy.

I’m more impressed that we got 25 players beyond our own group of Dormmates at ND. That’s solid. Way to be HLS Nation!
