Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

May The Best Team Win


Or not. So goes the NCAA basketball tournament. There is still no doubt in Buster's mind that Ohio State and Kansas were the two standout teams, clearly the class of the field. But no matter how good you are, if you start laying bricks, you're apt to get bounced. That's what happened to the Buckeyes and the Jayhawks, and they're gone. And that, as they say, is why they play the games.

It's a funny, flukey Final Four and a bitter pill. If this OSU team played Kentucky ten times, we'd win eight. Same for playing North Carolina. Kansas would beat VCU nine times out of ten. But they don't play ten times in the tourney. Damn!

Oh well. Go VCU!!!!!
