Fiddlin' Around

OK, As far as I know I got through April Fools’ Day and didn't try to fool anybody else with the oldest April Fools’ joke "Your shoes are untied." And everybody knows that wouldn't be the case trying to fool me, because my shoes quite often become untied.

It’s the new slippery fluorescent laces, you can tie a double knot or even a triple knot if your laces are long enough and they'll still work their way loose.

But on second thought maybe I and everybody else on the planet got fooled by the NCAA Final Four in major college men's basketball. Texas Tech, Virginia, Auburn and Michigan State?!? (Virginia was the lone #1 seed.)

So maybe that was indeed a massive April Fools’ hoax. But no it wasn't and that's exactly true news as opposed to fake news.

If you were lucky enough to pick those four survivors in your bracket sheet, congratulations! That's shows exactly how much parity there is in the men's ranks.

The NCAA ladies have a ways to go regarding parity from top to bottom, but they're improving year by year. Just look at how South Dakota State hung around against Oregon in the Sweet Sixteen!
