And pool master Ron is away from his keyboard, breathing deeply as the Boilermakers are in the championship game. Best of luck, Ron, on recovering from your post-final four celebrations.
For those of us focussed on more important issues, such as the standings in our pool, we dive deep (shallow) into the final four report to see that if UConn defeats Purdue, Ron will be sad, but “WheresNova” will not only have their answer (Ummmm – who cares?), but a victory in the pool.
On the other hand, if Purdue defeats UConn, both Ron and “MF2” will be ecstatic. Which seemed unlikely when NC State defeated Duke in the great 8.
In an example of excellent hedging strategy, Shizcity is in position to finish in 2nd or 3rd place dependent on the outcome, favoring UConn to finish in 2nd instead of 3rd should Purdue win.
Congratulations, once again to Tom for his steadfast lock on the Brandy award as previously reported.
