There's nothing like the Real Dairy Shootout.
I love having the opportunity to be in high school gyms and partake of the excitement that is high school hoops. It's fun to see kids competing against each other all while trying to represent their school with pride. We all better enjoy it while it lasts: there is only two days of it left!
My picks for the first day actually went rather well: 21 out of 24 games correctly picked for an 87.5% average is much better than my free-throw average in high school. And it's light-years ahead of Paul Kingsbury's average.
Well, it's time for my second day of picks... I doubt I get 21/24 correct again.
