There are 28 entries so far in the Pick the Tournaments contest.  If you would
like to enter, the deadline is 6:00 PM EST today (Thursday 3/9).
 
Here are the picks I'm submitting.  That way, when I win the contest, nobody
will be able to say I cheated :-)  (Ahem... more likely, this will serve as a
record of the teams you should NOT pick...)

"Anyway, after I've made my James Joyce faux pas, he invariably gives me an
 indulgent chuckle:  'Heh-heh-heh-heh, ohhh my -- James Joyce didn't write
 _Trees_.  _Trees_ was written by Joyce Kilmer.'  Of course, then I ask 'who
 is SHE?' and I destroy myself completely."
