The Male Half of the Staff is leading in the SHECKYmagazine.com office pool. So far, he has accurately predicted the winners of the first 16 games in the annual NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, known as “March Madness.” He is 17 for 17 if we count the “play-in” game that saw Mt. St. Mary’s beat Coppin St.
The Female Half has correctly predicted 13 of the 17 games played so far, earning her second place in the office pool.
Of course, since there are only two people in the office, this puts her dead last.
The Female Half has tried to shame the Male Half by pointing out that, in order to secure a perfect record, The Male Half had to favor Michigan State over his alma mater, Temple University. Says he, “If there was one thing that Temple taught me, it was to examine reality and act on that, rather than to act on sentimentality or emotion.”
Tomorrow: Sixteen more games!
