Day 19 - BIG NEWS!!!

OK. I'm beyond excited right now....As in, this kid excited:



I should come right out and say I'm also furious at myself for not thinking of this idea I'm about to blow your mind with...But the idea is so unbelievably fantastic and such a potential goldmine that I cant really be mad at all...I'm just excited to do it.

So right now I need to thank the loyal and brilliant reader who emailed me to suggest it...I don't know this person. I've never met them and all I can say is any guy reading this will immediately love her for her idea...So Laura Cilmi, thank you.

Without further ado, here's the idea:

WE'RE DOING AN OFFICE NCAA TOURNAMENT POOL!!!!!

Myself and the Coworkers will fill out brackets. Naturally, being that I have a distinct advantage over my competition, I will not cheat. I'm going to fill it out fair & square and really try to win this thing.

That being said, I'm going to tie one hand behind my back by not allowing myself to choose a #1 seed to win the title.

I've been thinking what might be the best way to have the kids pick...and I think the best way is to just ask them which mascot would win...

For example, if its a Tiger versus a Highlander, I will explain that a Highlander is a guy with a big sword and a tiger can rip off it's owners face in the middle of a giant Vegas stage show...Then they will decide who will win...I hope they pick the Tiger...but I will not rig it for them.

So, if Summer picks Robert Morris to win the whole shebang...so be it...

Either way, I'm incredibly excited about this idea...Although, I should mention the blog will most likely go into sleep mode starting Wednesday, March 18th as I will be departing for Las Vegas, Nevada and partaking in a fun, safe, debauchery free weekend alongside some friends...

Since I will be in the thick of Hell's Waiting Room for 5 days I will do my best to post at some point with a bracket update...However, regardless, my goal is to post everyone's bracket onto the blog and allow those readers who care the chance to keep tabs on which kid has the best chance to become the next Brandon Lang...

I would assume this will take place Monday with my posting our results on Tuesday.

I hope you're half as excited as I am...Because I'm freaking out with excitement...until I lose and feel incredible shame...

[UPDATE: I need some ideas for potential prizes to give the winner...private concert by Garrett...a Harmonica? Throw something out there...and if I finish last what should I do?]
