Hal, the question is, how did you lose with the Gator winning? I'm sure everyone at your alma mater is very disapointed in you.

Grats Bob!

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home, I would be arrested. So, I go to baseball games and fit right in.

Thanks Jay! Keeping it in the Minnesota family
Hal- I actually was pulling for the Gators for 3 reasons:
1) I found out I won the contest even if Florida won;
2) I always cheer for the SEC whenever they play a non-SEC team (except for Kentucky); and,
3) Now I can say I was there when the Hogs beat the 2006 National Champs in OT in Fayetteville!

The only 6 games that the Gators lost this season were to SEC schools... and all of them were because the crappy SEC refs called ticky-tack fouls on our big men.

When I watched the NCAA tournament and noticed that the refs "let the teams play" in the tourney, I knew we had a great chance of success.

So I guess the SEC showed what a basketball conference it has become:

Gators vs. SEC opponents: 13-6

Gators vs. Rest of the Country: 20-0

I wish more of you followed college baseball so we could have a repeat contest this June. With no major league teams anywhere around here, I make the 45 minute drive to the U of A (Arkansas) to watch my beloved Hogs (9th in the nation) battle in the best baseball conference (by far) in the U.S., the SEC. At last count, 9 of the 12 teams in the SEC have been ranked in the top 25 already this year.
