Well, Davidson was eliminated. Oh well. There goes the last chance for a Cinderella to make it to the Final Four or to the ultimate championship. The list of great Cinderellas in March Madness would probably include: Indiana State with Larry Byrd battling Michigan State and Magic Johnson; North Carolina State, coached by Jim Valvano defeating University of Houston and Akeem Alajawon; Villanova over Georgetown; UNC-Charlotte with Cornbread Maxwell from about thirty years ago and George Washington University from last year. I am sure there have been others that I just can't remember.
Now we have the four number one seeds from the four regionals and the potential for some good basketball with what should be the four best teams in the country. As for me, I like the little guys struggling to the top. Particularly the little colleges known more for their academics like Davidson.
So I will have to say I'm sorry to Susie Baker and Coach Jackson and George Brown and the Wright sisters and Judge Essary and Robert Smalley. I was pulling for you.
Tomorrow is foreclosure day and April Fool's Day. This past Foreclosure Day started off wet, then dry and warm and ended up wet, then dry and cold. I wonder to which spots in Georgia I will have to travel this time. I hope it doesn't rain on me this time.
The weather this morning was rather bleak and cold. It is still kind of gray. I don't know if it is going to rain further today. I would prefer if it dried off and got warm again. This is the time of year when almost anything can happen, weather-wise.
