The maddest March in near history, and I'm now in a bit of a spot. I lead the office bracket pool by 2 points, but one other guy is left who can catch me. If Michigan State loses any game in the Final Four, I win about $40. If MSU wins the tournament and the total score in the final game is 142 or more, I lose. I still win if MSU wins the final and the total score is under 142, so I just root for the Spartans and a low score. Good thing the final can't be MSU vs. Wisconsin, 'cuz the Spartans are gonna light up the scoreboard like a friggin' Christmas tree agin the Badgers. Did you see that late game alley-oop Cleaves dished to Mo Pete in the Iowa State game? That was when I knew MSU was going to win it all this year.
