Bracketology Junior

The boys worked hard on their brackets. Carter spent a couple of days, trying to divine whether the Big 10 or Big East had better years, and even sitting through my stories of tournaments past. Calvin mostly did his at breakfast on Thursday (see pics below). Carter helped him, patiently explaining that a smaller number is better than a bigger number, and that Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, and TAMU-CC all have different teams. (Kinda like England and Wales, how cute!) Calvin finished his after school Thursday at the bike shop, just in time to turn them in before the 5 p.m. tip-offs Paris time. The guides were cracking up as he mulled over each choice, thinking hard before making what generally seem reasonable selections. Calvin is the true fan (and yes, I had to explain to him that that's short for fanatic), having picked Duke to beat Virginia for the title. Maybe next year, kiddo. Carter's very proud to be tops in the family so far!
