    Default Your Alma Mater

    How is your alma mater doing in the NCAA basketball world right now? Mine, Murray State, is in the top 25 with a 26-4 record. I also attended the University of Kentucky for three years in pursuit of a Biology degree. The Wildcats are 30-0.

    How is yours doing?

    I went to Kentucky as well, and they will finish the regular season at 31-0 after beating Florida today!!

    Ok, I never went there. Never even been to Kentucky! But somehow I've been a fan since I was a little kid. I have no idea, don't ask. But once I'm a fan of a team, I'm dedicated.

    The school that I went to that ever did a damn in helping me in my career doesn't have a basketball team. Nor any other sporting team. They only have vending machines.

    You went to Berzerkley? Well, that explains a few things.

    Olivia is Florida State. She had a couple of years of bragging rights. Dangit, the only team to stop the SEC train!

    Didn't they just separate the weirdos and geeks away from the Golden Bears?

    I hate the SEC and I hate Florida State (and Florida too for that fact).

    I'm not a sports fan. There doesn't seem to be much news about college chess championships, so I'm out of the loop.
