I know a blog. And you, Eric Wilbur, are not writing a blog.

Call it what you want, but Eric Wilbur's rants and raves on random subjects do not a blog make.

That being said, Boston.com's "Sports Blog" expresses a frustration I share:

Well, that does it. I’ve torn my bracket sheet in two, crumpled it up, and made a nice little score into the waste basket across the room, which is more than those tools at Kentucky could muster...UAB? This was a team that wasn’t supposed to get by Washington in the first round...I’m surely not the only one with bracket boo-hoos today. If yours is near perfect, then I’d like to congratulate you and tell you that your walking on water thing was pretty cool too.

Know a friend who predicted UAB over Kentucky, Vanderbilt in the Sweet Sixteen and Gonzaga over Nevada? Beat them until they cry -- they deserve it.

I laughed at my Syracuse buddy who picks the Orangemen to win the tournament every season. Might I remind you, he’s still in the game. I am not.

Right. I placed the 'Cuse in the Sweet Sixteen. That being said, we all have a friend who annually picks Syracuse (or Arizona) to win it all. Mock them (after Syracuse loses in the Elite Eight)-- they deserve it.
