PICK: Purdue vs. Illinios

I was once total that in French "Purdue" means "to Lose" interesting. I don't speak French, and although most people think Poodles are French, they are native to Germany (we are actually hunting dogs - but today it is mostly hunting "z's"). I'm going to trust my sense of smell and go with Purdue.

PICK: NHL Red Wings vs Penguins

One thing I wanted to do with this video was to verify my independence in my choices. As you can see.. I sit in the middle of the floor before making the pick, awaiting the command to go so there is no favoritism. Red Wings vs Penguins is a rematch of last years Stanley Cup Finals. Although the save pick is the Red Wings, I'm going to go with the Penguins to pull out a squeaker.

PICK: Oklahoma State vs Kansas

The Kansas Jayhawks are the reigning champs and usually unbeatable at Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks are my pick to win.

PICK: Mississippi vs Vanderbilt

seeing how my main hobby is sleeping, I would find it difficult to go with a team call Rebels :-). I lost on my last pick of Vanderbilt (vs. house favorite Florida Gators) but I'll try again: Vanderbilt.

PICK: Arizona vs Oregon

NCAA Men's Basketball is picking up. Arizona teams have been good to me so I'll pick them again. Wildcats (yes CATS) to beat the Ducks.
