According to the U.S. Statistics Bureau, only 44 people outside the state of Kansas picked the Jayhawks to win the National Championship. One of them was your girlfriend who picked them based on the uniforms. The other 43 were kids who thought the KU mascot looked like Toucan Sam.What else happened this weekend?
- The Twins took 2 of 3 from the Royals before dropping the first of three in Chicago this afternoon. Pat Neshek gave up a grand slam in the 7th to give A.J. and Ozzie the win.
- That sleuth Patrick Reusse finally figured out why fatherless African-Americans with "no food, no money and the electricity about to be cut off" don't get their stories told. (Spoiler: because they suck at basketball)
- Governor Tim Pawlenty repeatedly cited "misplaced priorities" when vetoing $208 million from the 2008 state bonding bill. And thank god too. While some were outraged by the cuts, WesternCollegeHockey came out of the shadows to bravely stand up for the governors approritaely placed priorities.
- Watching the Twins bat this season is like playing that game with my deaf cousin where I hide something and say "Warm. You're getting warmer. Hot! Wait! Turn around. Colder, colder!" For some reason he's really bad at that game.
Oh, and despite what my cat says, I had something in both my eyes during "One Shining Moment" after the basketball game, I never cry.
