The Ugly Side of Bracketology

Toledo, OH - Administrators at Hadley Lane Elementary School in Toledo, Ohio reacted forcefully after finding out that both of the school's kindergarten classes have NCAA tournament pools going.

"We all like the tournament, but I'm sorry, five years of age is too young to be in an NCAA pool," said James Frazier, the school's principal.

Anthony Fertitta, the kindergartner who started the pools, disagreed. "Bet the over," Anthony said about Monday night's Memphis/Kansas title game.

Frazier said the school has barred all participating students from taking naps throughout the 18-day run of the tournament, though the teachers' union was said to be staunchly against such a measure.

“We are planning to add Bracketology 101 to our curriculum in time for next year’s tourney,” Frazier added. “Goodness knows, we’ll have motivated pupils, and that’s when real teaching happens.”

I see Tony as a pit boss, not Vegas; probably Reno. He'll be in a double wide. All good.

After a rousing speech by Roger Clemens proclaiming his innocence to felony charges for lying to Congress, supporters in Katy, TX reported a flock of flying pigs rose from a nearby tree, circled the crowd and flew off into the sunset.

"However, this is a wakeup call," said Clemens after his perjury indictment. "I'm going to look closely at my lying."

Politico is reporting that former GOP House Majority Leader and fellow Texan Tom DeLay will advise Clemens, pro-bono, on how to employ smirking sanctimony to deny wrongdoing at his upcoming trial.

"We have enough potty-mouthed motherf..kers in the NFL," said NBC analyst Tony Dungy in blasting Jets' coach Rex Ryan for hiring former Jet Blue flight attendant Steven Slater as an Assistant Food Services Coach.

Responding to a tidal flow of fan protests over the "boring and stupid" New Meadowlands Stadium name, New Jersey officials announced the facility will be called "East Rutherford Just Off The Jersey Turnpike Field."

"It has nothing to do with Brad personally," commented Brett Favre about reports of a rift with Minnesota Viking's coach Brad Childress. "I just don't trust anyone who's bald and wears glasses."

World Extreme Cagefighting has applied to the International Olympic Committee to add cagefighting as an official event for the 2012 games in London.

"If he'd been my mother-in-law, none of this would have happened," said Francisco Rodriguez about the incident which resulted in his arrest for assaulting his father-in-law at Citi Field ... and a season-ending injury.

"My hand hurts," said Dustin Johnson after failing to write "I will not ground my club in bunkers anymore" 1,000 times on Whistling Straits' main blackboard. "He's 11 sentences short," said a PGA spokesman in announcing Johnson's immediate suspension. "Rules are rules."
