SportsFilter: The Thursday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Helped my 4 year-old fill out a bracket this a.m. -- told him mascots, but that's really it. Sometimes what seems more badass to a 4 year-old boy helps lead you to the head of your family picks pool after the first 6 or so games.
"Dragons or tornadoes?" Kid looked at me like I was high.

Outcome regardless, voting Amaker into the greater Boston area open collar, necktie hating HOF behind the Splinter.

Hilarious . . . "Dragons or tornadoes?" Kid looked at me like I was high.
I would say Dragons, but I honestly do not know. :)
I have done the mascot thing with my wife a few times. One year, I had her pick based on school colors. Recently, she picks based on mascots as if she was our cat, which usually breaks down to felines always beat dogs and birds otherwise the contest is not meaningful and she picks the favorite.

I begged her to stop treating me like a #3 seed.
