For the last several years we have a competition in our family around the NCAA tournament. We each fill out a bracket before the tournament begins and then we track points to see who guessed the most correctly. Adam, who follows basketball closely usually comes out on top Lizzy picked the champion and won a couple of years ago.
This year it's all Anna and Ben - they have phenomenal picks. They have the best picks of anyone I know and I think would win nearly any pool out there. Both picked three of the final four and both have Michigan State versus North Carolina in the final. There was no coaching involved, they made their picks all on their own. They are way, way ahead of everyone else in the family (especially ahead of their parents). And no, they're not basketball gurus ... Anna's methodology? She pretty much picked the ones who's names sounded cool.
Ben, who admires Anna greatly, pretty much copied Anna's picks all the way through with few exceptions - all the way except the final. Anna picked Michigan State. Ben picked North Carolina. It all comes down to Monday night ... the great matchup ... Anna versus Ben for the championship.
