The Madness of 2022

         It's that time again! It's time for March Madness.

         Like everyone year, I fill out a bracket for the NCAA's Tournament. Although, the circumstances in this year also put a damper on the traditionally fun sports season. I did watch more basketball this year, but still not nearly as much as pre-pandemic levels.

         Anyways, here are my takes for this year. I filled it out at ESPN.

         As you can see, I do have biases against the SEC. In particular, teams such as Alabama and Auburn. While I picked them as upsets by lower seeds, they very well could come out on top and even go deep in the Tournament. That's the beauty of it. These games are all about who can be the most consistent in their performance. I would have chosen Gonzaga to go deep, but the odds are usually against the team with a stellar record.

         Of course, being a Villanova fan, I have inherited a certain pride about the teams in Big East. I believe they are good enough to go deeper than their seeds suggest. After all, some of the lowest-seeded champions and runner-ups came from that conference. It does bother me, however, that Villanova is a 2 seed. Their performance tends to be questionable the higher seed they receive. These are feelings based on past trends.

         Wish I could say the same for BYU's performance. At least they still have winning records. Hopefully, after they transition into the Big 12 for some years, they might get better. Nah, they aren't gonna go far in the NIT either.

         I felt it was appropriate to have Baylor as the champion this year. Is it the right choice? Time will tell. I never cared too much for the final scores of these games, so I made them up based on nothing.

         The little basketball I did watch this season wasn't enough for me to have a strong conviction about the higher-seeded teams. Who knows? I could be way off base and we might have Arizona as the champion this year. Or, Gonzaga may finally take one home after being so close several times this past decade.

         Anyways, enjoy the Madness. The first two rounds are when we see how hilariously wrong we are about our choices.

The people doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved deeply with her group and @fyrstikken . Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. I cant prove she is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing it. I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have tried to kill me and are still trying to kill me. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome.

They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years.

What would you say while having a gun pointed at your head from an undisclosed location? Have people find it? My hands are tied while they play like children with a gun to my head. Its a terrorist act on American soil while some yawn and say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth? https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism

I've got Gonzaga going all the way in both of my brackets. Most of my final stuff stayed the same. I did some different scenarios with the lower teams though. Good luck!

This one year where I give up having Zags going to the top is the year when they take it.

Typical.

Too bad, I don't follow basketball games so, I can't relate much here.

Hopefully, I will begin to watch basketball too

Baylor is a solid team for sure. Akinjo started playing to his potential when he got away from Georgetown and I love that dude with the mullet, he can hoop

I hope they go far.

This would be the year Gonzaga wins it all as I decided not to put them at the top.

It would be very nice and somewhat coincidental if your predictions are taken for granted , since you made them out of nowhere , seriously I hope Arizona gives us a good surprise
