What's your shoe size?

I apologize to my fans for not having posted in a few days. I have been very busy at work...Enjoy a post from an NCAA tourney pool (Grab em in the Biscuits) from last year.

As outgoing champion and one who has little to do at work right now, I thought it would be nice to compose a message. Of course, in drafting this message, I have nothing in particular to say. This is par for the course.

Two years ago, a family from humble roots began it accent to the top of the fantasy basketball world. Seth Kaye, long time apathetic sports fan, filled his brackets with ease and grace; undoubtedly supported by a little advice from the egomaniacal fat guy and his mad dog. By the time the smoke cleared, Mr. Kaye was dining with Colonel Sanders, not on his chicken, but instead, his biscuits. So delicious were biscuits he recommended his son try some. However, all the biscuits were gone, so it would not be until next year that his son would be afforded such an opportunity.

Next year came, and young Kaye, who his parents have told him refuses to listen to anyone, took to preparing his brackets with no help at all. However, according to a recent IQ test offered and taken on the internet, young Kaye is “gifted.” Therefore, there was little doubt that he was up to the task at hand. (Don’t doubt, you know it’s true because it was on the internet). By the end of the first week young Kaye found himself at or near the top of the standings. By the end of the second week, it was all but over. So, in the grand fashion that had become custom, young Kaye dined with the Colonel. Inasmuch as young Kaye does not eat fried chicken from KFC, his choice of sustenance was easy. Biscuits, biscuits and more biscuits.

Many questioned whether young Kaye was eating the biscuits because y’all just paid for his trip to London or because of his devotion to the most yummy of bread sources. Little matter, the butter soaked bisucits went down easy.

This brings us to 2006, where our Champion is a man who also loves biscuits. In fact, he likes them so much he named a fantasy league after them. I digress, given Mr. G’s (hey, isn’t that the weather guy) subscription to ESPNs excessive and self-promotional coverage of all college basketball games he should have won (is ESPN the MTV of the 21st Century?) . Congrats….

So now, we all look forward to the conclusion of the 2006 tournament and the start of the 2007 tourney. What will happen then?, will family Kaye re- capture the crown or will it capture the friedmans (wait, wasn’t that a movie?); perhaps the Royal Tennenbaums, and by that time there will be 2, will take the title; Maybe Evan “ice cream” Cohen will finally push through, who knows. Perhaps, Melissa “I need a” Dickman has it in her (1. no pun intended 2. is she even in our pool?) . Or will it be any of these people, Joe “Liberty” DeVito; Alec “aptly named” Grossman; Brian “I got” Steckloff “when I saw brokeback mountain”;

Needless to say, no one knows what will happen.

I can’t believe you read this far, it’s like when Ferris told you go home…so, I recommend you stop reading, I mean it, the essay is over…stop, stop!…jesus, go home, stop reading, etc, etc, etc…
