Kentucky Scores for Yours Truly




It was an exciting night at the Village Drive watching Kentucky defeat Kansas for the 2012 NCAA Basketball Championship.  Yes, Moon Township's own John Calipari finally got his national championship.  Yes, it was exciting to see Anthony Davis play.  That kid is really, really good.  An honest-to-God GREAT college basketball player.  And, yes, it's nice that this is finally all over and we won't have to hear Clark Kellogg call a basketball "the pumpkin" anymore.  But the real news coming out of last night is this....

I won the NCAA March Madness bracket pool that I was in!!!!!!

Yes, after entering these things for I don't know how many years, and never even coming close, to actually win one of these things is a real thrill.  An unbelievable thrill.  The pride in finishing first among 57 entrants is almost worth more than the prize money, although I DO plan on accepting the winner's share.  I am figuring that this money should finance my greens fees deep into the summer this golf season.

Many thanks to good buddy John Frissora who has run this March Madness pool for over 20 years.  It is an honor to win an FGE event.

Also, thanks go out to John's Moon Township boyhood pal, who helped to make this possible...
