It's finally Thursday! The tournament begins today, with our first tip at 11:20 a.m. between Xavier and Georgia. As we do annually, AW and I will be making picks for each game along the way. It's painful, and often embarrassing, but always fun.
For my part, I'm scrambling to get everything done before flying to Las Vegas tomorrow. There's no better place to be for the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament.
