obligatory NCAA bracket blogging V

Four games tonight. (I may or may not watch any of them. Given that I cursed Gonzaga yesterday, I should probably avoid the telly.)

Today's picks are presented as a villanelle, because.

I put no money in a bracket pool.
I wouldn't win it even if I tried.
The lady Fortune is a mistress cruel.

Of the two Huskies, UConn has to rule
And Brandon Roy must sadly be denied.
I put no money in a bracket pool.

GM and Wichita State: each a school
That busted brackets as a nation cried.
The lady Fortune is a mistress cruel.

Will Villanova be the Eagles' tool?
Survey says: No. Our survey shall decide.
(I put no money in a bracket pool.)

And G'Town: will they make the Gators drool?
No chance. A reptile wins when they collide.
The lady Fortune is a mistress cruel.

Will Time, the judge of all, judge me a fool?
Or was I right to follow Caution's guide?
I put no money in a bracket pool.
The lady Fortune is a mistress cruel.


Update: Three for three! (I didn't call GM vs. WS 'cause I had no stake in it.) I was pretty nervous for UConn until the miracle comeback--it's tough to know just how nervous you should be when you're watching ESPN's updated scoreboard (no cable!).

I should write villanelles more often.
