Eko’s picks were a slam dunk
This year I have twice the dog-computing-power so there was pretty much no question I’d win the billion. Except there’s no contest this year. Coincidence? I think not. Buffet was clearly shaking in his boots at the prospect of facing off with college basketball’s best prognosticators.
Penny thought it was hilarious Buffett backed down
We won’t be sitting on piles of cash anytime soon but nevertheless it’s time to make our picks based solely on which mascots we like.
The Colonials of Robert Morris are patriots, but we don’t think they stand a chance
Same goes for the Hampton Pirates and all other teams with human mascots
But that doesn’t eliminate too many teams as most choose one animal or another to represent their side.
If you like cats, this is your year. It seems nearly half the field, including the favorite, Kentucky, are named the Wildcats
But never fear dog lovers, you’re well represented by Huskies, Bulldogs, Terriers and Great Danes. (“Will, why are you making me wear a dog costume, I’m a dog…”)
Our dark horse favorite to make a deep run is a pup of the untamed sort. Don’t sleep on the NC State Wolfpack
But, dogs are loyal creatures, so these pups are doubling down on their old man’s alma mater. Ladies and gentleman, I give you the 2015 national champs….
The University of Notre Dame! Taz, while not exactly our official mascot, will count for our animal purposes here
Sound crazy? That’s what they said last year too!
I cross my paws for your team… it’s Notre Dame and I’m french :o)
Best of luck with the picks. I don’t think my guys are that much into basketball, give them a track meet & watch them fly:)
Hilarious and I must show my husband! I am not a fan of the brackets (but…my husband has the afternoon game on as we speak), and he is participating in a few brackets! Good luck!
oh my gosh Penny “laughing” is hilarious! I laughed till I cried. Eko looked very unimpressed with his dog costume so definitely don’t support them although I have to say they look doubtful on University of Notre Dame too so good luck!
Irish fantasyland was over 2 days ago. ND will be crying in their green beer.
We’re not into March Madness here, but we’ll back your pick! We have three different alma maters in this house, and none are ever in anything important, so there’s no infighting here. 🙂
Good luck to your team!
Pawsome choices! Now how are you guys with the ponies? 😉
Oh, my Popsy loves to watch Notre Dame he has been a fan for lots of years. I will let him know you two are rooting for them. Those animal hats look real cool on you sweet Eko. All those pics are great. Hugs and nose kisses, Chancy
lol this had me smiling and giggling all the way to the end. Great photos!
OMG! You guys (and Penny) are really into it! I’m voting for whatever team has Terriers as their mascot. I hope they fetch the prize. …See what I did there?
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Alright…..just when I think I’ve giggled more than ever before from the photos, I’m beating my previous record. These photos are hilarious. The cat hat did me in. HAHAHAHA I’m afraid we aren’t B-ball watchers in this house but I hope your team pulls things through!!!
