Something horrible happened to my bracket
I'm the only Card fan in my office bracket pool, even though we're not that rare here in Florida. I had to send this email to everyone in the pool today. I thought I would share it with you:
Dear Competitors,
Something horrible happened to my bracket between the time I made my picks and today. Jason first pointed it out to me, and then I got a call from Brent. My bracket “The Bracket” has North Carolina winning the National Championship.
If you know me, you know I’m a Louisville Cardinal fan. I’ve filled out at least one bracket with Louisville winning the whole thing every year. I’ve been waiting for a year like this, when we might actually have a chance to actually pull it off. I only did one bracket this year, The Bracket, and I swear to you that I picked Louisville to finish on top. I don’t know what happened, but I feel sick to my stomach. Those UNC punks knocked my beloved Cards out of the tournament last year. There is no way I would pick them to accomplish anything more than getting there baby blue backsides handed to them by The Ville.
So if my bracket performs well enough to be in contention at the end, I ask that my final score be modified to show my true prediction. Even if it means declining the winnings (I won’t want the winnings then anyway, just a tissue).
Go Cards
Thanks,
-Tim
So what do you think? Am I a drama queen, or what?
ps: I erased the exclation points after "Go Cards" just for you, Mike.

Something happened to my bracket too
They’re known as BYU, and they suck! I don’t know why I picked them, they’re something like 11-27 all-time in the Dance, I guess I thought they were due for a win. Never trust them again, otherwise I was perfecto, and I can’t remember the last time that happened. Oh, btw, I picked the Cards to win it all in every single bracket. That, at least, I’m confident of ;-)
Relax, Tim
…you might know that guy too…the one whose answering machine I left a message on…well….just this one time…special dispensation…he said he’ll consider your last pick to be “Louisville.”
I don’t know how the rest of the faithful here, feel, but if it’s good enough for Him…
You think the Big Guy

Sorry, Tim
I didn’t do my bracket card here this year, so I assumed it was gonna be local. I did do my card here last year, and I should have remembered…anyway, hope things go your way.
