My TOTALLY CORRECT trivia pick did not show up on the big board because of a technical glitch--that being my inability to find the blank to fill in. That's OK because I won't need it! Sure, I'm below the fold once again and facing relegation, but I'm gonna run the table for the rest of the tournament. I'm even gonna be right with teams I picked who've already been eliminated. This is MY YEAR! At last, after three decades of miserable picks and 60 dollars in habitually late entry fees, perennially finishing behind Tom's dog--even posthumously, I am finally going to recoup my investment in this godforsaken crummy old pool with its draconian rules, impossibly large Mahon family, and capricious pool organizers. I will not be denied!
And now, an ode to Dayton:
She shall ever claim our duty,
For she shines--the brightest gem
That has ever decked with beauty
Dear Ohio's diadem.
Meditate on that one, Pool Organizers!
