Wro-bot Madness in Full Swing.

For the first time in NCAA history, the family is taking their love of sport to the brackets. With Mom, Dad and sister in Ohio, husband and I in Chicago and brother in Milwaukee, I thought a little friendly competition would be fun.

There are no winnings aside from bragging rights and in this family, that is plenty. Just ask last year's Easter Egg competition winner, who shall remain nameless here since it was not me.

Now, it pains me to report that I pushed Marquette out of my bracket after the first round. While my heart wants to believe otherwise, this time, I listened to my head. Being from Cleveland, the land of many a heartbreaks when it comes to sports, history tells me I made the right decision.

Accordingly to the Wro-bots, a humorous play on my last name (thanks to husband), here are the national champs:
??? - Sister
Duke - Mom
Oklahoma - Dad
North Carolina - Brother
Louisville - Me
Pittsburgh - Husband

My sister has yet to turn in her picks beyond the first round, I expect her to send tonight otherwise I might have to call foul.

Finally, I am thankful husband did not mind that I kept my name because it lends itself nicely to so many great things like a group bracket title. He's not pictured above because we was playing photographer and did a mighty fine job I might add.
