Thanks for coming! I plan to post a lot of interesting articles and comment on a wide range of things-- from political to religious, from private to public, from formal writing on public policy to snippets on random observations.
I started out 40-8 in the first two rounds, with 13 of the 16 in the Sweet Sixteen.

First and foremost, I am saved by God's grace as manifested most clearly through the atoning death of Jesus Christ-- and thus, adopted into His family. As a result, I increasingly seek to extend His grace to others in my daily life. On the home front, I am a husband and father to four young men (two by adoption and two the more conventional way). Professionally, I am an economist who loves to teach and is active in public policy circles. Vocationally, I am an active writer and the author of three books (one on the book of Joshua; two on public policy-- one secular, one Christian). Finally, I am the co-author of a 21-month discipleship curriculum, Thoroughly Equipped (and a lighter 36-week version), for developing competent lay-leaders in the Church. Related to that work, Kurt and I have two books, Enough Horses in the Barn and Roll Up Your Sleeves.

Take heart....there's always next year, March in particular. Meanwhile, ponder whether or not the practice of "bracketing" might well be sinful despite the reasons not being "patently obvious" pro or con. Likely some cosmic anti-sports killjoy is up there chuckling.
For those interested in the context for Don's comments, you can follow the thread (particularly, posts 18-20) at: http://www.masson.us/blog/?p=4935&cpage=1#comment-882151
Including, perhaps, an in-depth look at the burning question: Why didn't Jesus have anything to say about NCAA picks when Barak Obama had not problem in doing so.
OK, OK....to much time on my hands!
Besides, I would think that next time around your selection of the Final Four would be "patently obvious": Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
Given that, is there a corresponding Elite Eight? Sweet Sixteen....ad infinitum.....
Only Heaven knows.... (:
Sounds like my bracket. 13-16 in sweet sixteen and none in final four.
Louisville, Memphis, Pittsburg and Gonazaga
I should burn my bracket so no one ever stumbles upon it.
