  1. I hope you aren't planning on belittling Aaron Craft all season again.

    Will we ever get the results from the top choices in the Jersey bracket? This is starting to feel like when I watched American Gladiators for two years to see who would win the ultimate gladiator challenge, but the show had been cancelled mid-season and I was stuck watching the same eight episodes repeatedly.

  2. I'm going to try my best not to be as hard on Mr Craft this year. With respect to the Uni Bracket, the Final Four is coming.
