Games and seeds were announced yesterday for the NCCA tournament, this is the biggest spectacle in all of sports annualy, and this year will provide it's fair share of upsets, suprises, and at the end only 1 survivor.
Since I will be participating in multiple brackets, I will going on the record and saying that Illinois is my favorite to win the whole thing, the 3 headed monster consisting of Deron Williams, Dee Brown and Luther Head is tremendous, Brown has the versatility to not score a point in a game, and make up for it in other aspects. Williams and Head are his wingmen, supreme shooters that go to the basket with goals, as they are led by there General Brown who gets the ball up the court faster than any person in the tournament. With help from Augustine and Powell, these big men always provide enough slack to soften the big 3's load.
It also helps when you have an emotional goal attached, winning the Natl' title ultimately is the primary goal, but the deeper emotions and goals come from the death Bruce Weber's mother, who passed away just days before the Big Ten Championship. Trust me when something like that happens to a team that hasn't tasted a National Championship in the school's history and hasn't been to a Final Four since 1989, they are hungry enough to do what it takes to surpass the Heels', Deamon Deacons, and Blue Devils (can go far due to J.J Redick alone)

A rare occurence in a decent sized bedroom
Since I knew a snow day was in the rare works, the movie fan came out in me lastnight, I popped in Traffic at a few minutes after 10 and instead of falling asleep, I fell more in love with this movie. After seeing this in like 6th or 7th grade I had no idea what I was watching at this time, I wanted to pretend to like it, because I knew of the acclaim is was getting, and I wanted to sound smart by saying that I liked it, but I didn't understand a smudge of it. Fastforward to when it comes out on DVD, most likely 5 or 6 months after it hit theatres. I of course bought it, and it sat on my quickly stacking collection up until now. Rewind to the Oscars of 2001, growing up to be the loser fucking asshole movie fan that I am, I cheered for Gladiator to win best picture. But lastnight after finally having Traffic catch up to me, it hinted at me how strong it is, and how strong it might never be, due to the fact that it is fairly unknown, and that Gladiator overshadowed it that year. This movie is better than Gladiator, it's now probably in my top 12-13 movies of all time. I'm so cool, by the way, no one else that I know my age could write this, fuck you. tL
