2015 NCAA FINALS

This is late, but we still want to give Steph's Supertroopers a big round of applause for an outstanding performance.  She will now have the honor or having her name placed on the Morey Traveling Trophey.

Little O's blowout is this years winner of the "Diaper Dandy award!  For those of you who don't remember, this category was created when Landon thought parents with children had an unfair advantage with multiple entries!!!???

Frank is still licking his wounds, having been beaten by his future son-in-law, The Italian.  Stefano's question while choosing his picks, "people really go to Harvard to play basketball?"

Mary and Stefano have finally set their date.  August 28 in Rome.

NCAA FAMILY POOL UPDATE

For those of you still looking at the Blog, sorry for not keeping you more informed on the standings in the Pool.  Mary was home for the past two weeks, and she was on a mission to find a dress for the wedding.  She is now back in London with a dress.  The standing's coming into this second weekend are below.  But first, let me make a few observations.

• I am sure Hutch thought he had a number of great reasons for picking Iowa State, but let's be honest, none of them were really that great, RIGHT!  I feel the same about Villanova!
• Lee, you must be proud of how knowledgeable your two kids are when it comes to college basketball. But look out for their cousin,  Little "O", he's making a huge impact his rooky year!
• Trae's Galloping horses may make it to the finish line.  But with all the Kentucky and Wisconsin picks, the odds are against him.  At least Val is on his side!
• With the possible final points, James, Ivy and Kynnedi are confident they can beat Grandma.

Good Luck to everyone this weekend!
