Upsets upsets upsets! To the scores: 7 Michigan 73, 2 Louisville 69: Well, this portion of my bracket is totally ruined now. I had both teams in this game but Louisville winning (and then losing to Creighton). Not a great start… 2/2 TEAMS, LOSER 2 Kentucky 65, 10 Wichita State 62. This one could have been one heck…
Smarch Madness: Day 3 Update
Well, I walked into yesterday with a mixed bag: 25 out of 32 right in the first round (an all-time high… maybe I should just never watch college basketball again), but two of my Elite Eight teams eliminated (thanks for nothing, SMU and Creighton). But the good thing about not having quite as many dogs…
Smarch Madness: Day 2 Update
Another day, another stream-of-consciousness blog post on how my random bracket picks went before spending an entire day watching college basketball. No time to waste—let’s get right to it… 7 Michigan 92, 10 Oklahoma State 91. I got to watch some of this one and saw all the stuff that Michigan went through the past couple…
Smarch Madness: Day 1 Update
The most fun way I can think of to track my (probably) lousy Smarch Madness bracket is to look at the scores before I actually look at my bracket. After all, I didn’t do any research before I made my picks… so what’s more fun than a stream-of-consciousness blog where I check the scores and then…
Smarch Madness
I put together a bracket this year. I haven’t watched much college basketball this year, but I always watch the tournament pretty heavily. Either way, pretty much all of this was done at random. Let’s see what happens!
For Dave, my hero.
I lost one of the most amazing friends I’ve ever had on Thursday.
Thanks.
Ah… where to begin. Another year, this being my third as part of the wonderful traveling circus that you may know as Red Bull Global Rallycross, is in the books. It’s been a year of triumphs and tribulations, successes and struggles, fairy tales and failures, much like any other. But of course, no two seasons…
A Tale of Two Sebastiens, Pt. 2
Well, so much for that story I wrote yesterday… It was supposed to be the story of the year. Sebastien Loeb, the nine-time World Rally champion and all-around living legend, makes a one-off return to Rally Monte Carlo. His chief competition? Defending series (and race) champion Sebastien Ogier, who, thanks to an offseason rule change,…
A Tale of Two Sebastiens, Pt. 1
A World Rally legend grabs the overall lead in day one of his “return,” while a defending champion grapples with rules changes—both positive and negative. Wait, did Sebastien Loeb get better in his time away from rallying? OK, that might be an overreaction. But the nine-time World Rally champion, winner of 78 WRC events, X…
Bryce Menzies Wins Second Annual Frozen Rush
Bryce Menzies’ first trip to Sunday River for last year’s Red Bull Frozen Rush ended with a third place finish in a rented Pro 4 and a win for teammate Ricky Johnson. This year, after essentially swapping trucks with Johnson, he claimed the crown in the second annual event over the defending winner. “This year,…
