1st one I filled out :I have Gonzaga (yes beating my team OSU) / Duke / Florida / Butler ... Florida beating Duke in finals.
2nd one : OSU (gonzaga goes down to ole miss
) / Mich St (Big 10 Semi's!)/ Florida / Miami Florida (Battle of flor/vs miami!) ....OSU cutting down the nets to payback Florida for years past puff_>>
Basically I have florida as the strongest possible chance to make title game in every bracket I see.. Cannot erase them from that for some reason, especially since Kansas could likely fall to anyone IMO

I agree that Kansas could lose at any point in this tournament, they are vulnerable to any team they face. I don't see them going to the sweet 16, much less the final 4
Don't know if that is good or bad LOL, but we got 3 similar teams plus an underdog in 4th bracket so hopefully we get some luck on the dart-throwing contest.....I'm in a bracket around 60 people so I couldn't take Louisville like majority have unless I think they look perfect and flawless which I don't think they are like Kentucky last year. Bascally, I think Kentucky last year is better than Louisville this year plus the Ville is in the toughest bracket IMO
Final 4 is......
Gonzaga, Florida, Indiana, Michigan State

Obama's relaxing while the cats away.......
Even First Daughters Sasha and Malia need a break -- a spring break, to be exact -- from the White House every once in a while. The sisters and mom Michelle escaped the cold wintry weather of Washington, D.C. in favor of sun and surf in the Bahamas on a recent trip, a source tells Us Weekly exclusively.

The siblings made the most of their vacation at the Reef Atlantis, the source says. In addition to soaking up the sun at the family-friendly cabanas and swimming with dolphins, Sasha, 11, and Malia, 14, also got the chance to dance the night away at CRUSH, Atlantis' teen club, on Sunday, March 24.
PHOTOS: Michelle Obama's flawless style
No word if the First Lady, 49, joined her daughters on the dance floor, but she's proven before that she knows how to bust a move -- or two!
Michelle performed the "Evolution of Mom Dancing" with Jimmy Fallon on Feb. 22 on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon where she danced the "Dougie."
"How about Barack, is he a good dancer?" the host asked.
"You know, I give him a B," Michelle said of President Barack Obama. "His dancing is right here in the pocket. He's got like three good moves. But they're all right here," Michelle said while dancing with her hands by her hips."
