Free Keg = Massive Card Chronicle Bash

Well it's a done deal, daddy is officially the champion of NBX's Battle of the Blogs contest and the recipient of a free keg.

Sure they may have referred to CC as a baseball blog, but it's kind of like a boss giving you a massive raise while calling you Butt Munch instead of Dave; you're not going to say anything.

There are so many people to thank. First and foremost I want to thank Georgetown and UCLA for their elite eight performances which made my big moneyline bets pay off massively, I'd like to thank the oddsmakers for consistently setting the over/under lines for Florida games preposterously low, God, Kevin Kruger of UNLV, and last but certainly not least, I want to thank the countless number of bloggers who would have won this contest had they chosen to participate.

Now while I am certainly a man capable of downing 15 1/2 gallons of brew (When God made the Irish he didn't make much...), I have decided to enlist the help of some of my closest cronies (many of whom will be BYOB'ing) who will be making an appearance at CC Headquarters on the night of Friday, April 27 for a little shindig.
