I watched about half of it. Got about half right. It was okay.

Dawn vs. Sean in the NCAA Bracket Challenge!

Dawn and Sean will be filling out Brackets for the NCAA Tournament in celebration of March Madness. Sean has been filling these types of things out for nearly 15 years and watching college hoops since he was in high school. Dawn sometimes watches Sean, as he watches besketball out in the living room. She is relieved when Sean says, "Okay, we can watch something else" or the ever so popular "I aint watching this".

Strategy:
Sean will be using his vast knowledge of college hoops and the tournament to select the best team and sleepers to advance to the Final 4. The 12 over the 5 strategy. Team that got hot at the end of the season. That gut feeling for a team based on hours of observation on the couch and from watching ESPN after work and late at night.

Dawn will be picking her teams based on the appearance of that teams logo, pretty names, mascots, and lord knows what else.

The safe money is on:
Dawn. She has absouletly no idea what is going on. That gives her the advantage.

History:
Dawn and Sean participated in AM 1500's NBA Pick the Finals contest last summer. Dawn beat Sean and thirty some odd other people by properly predicting the amount of games it would take, the team that would win, and the MVP. Dawn WON the contest! But never got her Big City GC in the mail. Shame on you AM 1500!

Like I said, Sean has no chance.

Stay tuned for brackets, analysis and updates.

If you would like to play with Sean, Dawn, and a whole bunch of Hawaii Peeps, go to ESPN.Com, fill out a bracket, and join the public group "Hawaiian Punch". Let the Madness begin!

Happy Birthday to Me!

I'm buying this for myself for my birthday! Should be a good read!

My name's Sean...

...and I'm addicted to Thin Mints. (Sob, sob).

I can't stop eating these damn things! Morning, noon, and night. It doesn't matter! I'm going to the fridge to pop a couple in my mouth! 1 box down. I'm gonna need to buy more boxes soon.

Hamburglar signs with 9ers

David Carr has apparently signed to be a back-up QB with the San Francisco 49ers. Rabble, rabble.

Want some? Come get some! And let the Madness begin!

Tim Tebow to workout for Seahawks

Tim Tebow will do a private workout for the Seahawks.

I would rather the hawks roll the dice with him in the 2nd or 3rd round then take a QB in the 1st. Especially since it is looking like Bradford will be a Top 3 pick. I aint a big fan of Clausen.

Tebow could sit for a year or two behind Hasselbeck. But then again, it's BS season in the NFL. Can't really take anything you see or hear for what it's worth. It's all smoke and mirrors my friends!

The thing I like about Tebow is his character. He's a natural leader. But can he play QB in the NFL? That's the million dollar question.

Ratchet & Clank: Quest For Booty!

Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty! You gotta love the names they come up with in this series. Hilarious!

Dawn picked this up for me. I didn't even know about it!

Got through the first section tonight. I'm shocked at the graphics for a down loaded game. Good value for the game too! Check it out on Amazon! I'll keep ya updated!

Am I Crazy?

Is it just me, or does this,

Brandon Marshall to Seattle

Brandon Marshall is a dumbass.
He's gotten into "domestic" trouble with a lady friend on several occasions. The kind that involve the Popos. He's also slipped on a hamburger wrapper and put his hand threw a television severing tendons and arteries in his forearm. Alright, alright, he was horsing around with his friend, cousin, rented clown, whatever. But he's also caught over a 100 balls in each of the past 3 seasons. The last one coming with Kyle "Freakin" Orton at QB.

He's technichally still on the Broncos. But I get the feeling that they don't want him. The Broncos have placed him near the curb with a "take me" sign on him, slapping a 1st round tender (only) on the much maligned, but ever so talented WR.

So Brandon Marshall was checking out the sights in Seattle this morning (Saturday, March 6th, 2010). Believe me, no expense was spared considering that the Seahawks owner, Paul Allen, is one of the richest in all of sports. At least in North America.

At first I was against the move to bring Marshall to the Great Northwest. Giving up one of the 2 1st round picks, especially number 6 seemed very costly to me. Especially with the pressing needs throughout the team at Offensive Tackle, Defensive End, QB, Safety, RB, and Guard.

But then I heard that Deion Branch could be part of the compensation package. If the Seahawks can get Marshall for Mr. Branch, and say a second round pick, then this is a slam dunk! If the deal involves one of the first rounders, I'm against it. ESPECIALLY the number 6 pick. Those 2 picks (6th and 14th I think?) should go to addressing the needs I discussed earlier.

I'd like this better if the Seahawks hadn't signed TJ Whozyourmama last season. But the addition of Marshall COULD put Seattle right back in the mix of a very weak, and when I say weak, I mean Saved By the Bell Screech weak, NFC West. I mean 8-8 could get it done next season. And with Kurt Warner at church on Sundays, anything could happen in the division. Okay, okay, the Lambs have the cellar all locked up.

But to summarize, I like Marshall to Seattle if he doesn't cost us a 1st Rounder. Because after all, Brandon Marshall although very talented, is a dumbass. If and when he does get traded he will recieve a hefty check and signing bonus. The kind of mulah that can buy lots of tv's, new girlfriends, and lots of hamburgers. And I may stick my hand through the tv, if the Pete Carroll and the hawks, give too much to get a player with questionable judgement, in a non need position, of the current football team, when so many other positions need to be addressed. Marshall is a beast. He could help you win a division, or he could help lose you a job. Something to think about Pete.



All the best to Nate Burleson in Detroit!
