Please? Just 1 out of 100? You can cut the drama with a knife.

Well guys it has been about nine months since I posted anything on here. I have been very busy, but now I found time to start it back up again.

It is that time of the year again, everyone has a bracket filled out and are watching the tournament closely. Today has had some really close calls, but I am not talking about a nine versus an eight seed. No, I'm talking about one versus sixteen. Every year the people want it and every year they have been disappointed. As of today, the number one seeds of the past have beaten the number sixteen seeded teams 100 out of 100 times. Are you kidding me? Not one sixteen seed has beaten a one seed out of 100 games? But, today was almost magical, almost is the key word here. Pittsburgh went into their match up with Eastern Tennessee State too confident and the overlooked Eastern Tennessee State gave the one seed all they could handle. I was hoping and I was praying, but i just didn't work out. Although I enjoyed the game it just wasn't going to happen this year. Morehead State gave Louisville a run for their money as well, at least for one half. Sorry, sixteen seeds maybe next year!

This next topic I have really been excited to talk about. The big drama in Denver with the quarterback Jay Cutler and new Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels. What a mess I do not know where to begin with this one. So apparently Jay Cutler came straight out and requested to be traded. Apparently he was a little upset with McDaniels for trying to sign Matt Cassel. Jay, your job was never in jeopardy you are a pro bowl quarterback, not to mention only 25 years old. Why would you want to leave the offense that is built around you? But, now there are crazy rumors spiraling around with three team trades and such. Like Cutler to Cleveland for Quinn and Rodgers or how about Cutler to the Jets, Quinn to Denver and Cleveland gets a few picks. First of all, Cleveland has two quality starting quarterbacks why go for a third? Second, Rodgers was by far the best defensive player Cleveland had last year so he is not going anywhere. If Cleveland does trade a quarterback it certainly won't be for another quarterback. Hey Jay why don't you stop whining, work out a deal with your new coach, do your job, as in leading your team and winning because you will get paid regardless. How about just being happy with that?
