Totally off topic, but how often do I get a chance to cheer on two basketball teams from colleges I received degrees? Unfortunately, if they do get to face each other (a guy can dream), I will have a hard time deciding who to root for.

Notable Wins: Nevada, Utah State (2) Record in last 10 games: 9-1* (CNN incorrectly reported the record as 7-3 ) Last NCAA tournament: first bid NCAA tournament seed history: In the last 10 years, No. 15 seeds are 2-38 in the first round.

Cinderella # 2 Wright State (14) vs. Pittsburgh (3)

Here's a thought--run the presidential primaries like The Dance--Obama v. Kucinich, Dodd v. Edwards, Clinton v. Biden, Richardson v. Gravel-- one-on-one debates followed by voting, final four get to face off in Atlanta...
