See ya later, Raskin!

See ya later, Greggie Boy! See ya later, Ol' Cat-Stew! Maggie Lou, you can thank your wise old dad any time you please. Even better, Meredith and I will be in California on April 4, at her dad's house, where we will actually get to watch one of these games, in a room full of 'Nova fans!

Villanova

My bracket has Duke beating Pittsburgh and going to the Final Four, so in order to get back in the running I need Villanova to beat Pittsburgh. This strategy agrees with Meredith, since her father, uncle, aunt, and cousins attended Villanova. (Her first cousins currently own and run "Kelly's," a Villanova bar/hangout.) So here's hoping that Raskin and Maggie Lou will shed some more tears tonight! I join Raskin's call for more smack. In particular, how did Leonhardt's lunatic post about Yale hockey slide through with barely a responding peep? Perhaps because most McDows were hanging out in Rock Hill that weekend, riding horses and pickup trucks instead of tending their blog. I hate to beat up on Raskin since I live in New York with him and have ample opportunity to beat up on him here. But if Villanova wins maybe I'll take another crack at him.
