George Mason Univesity ...

Go Patriots!! Wow! I can't believe GMU is doing this well in the March Madness tournament. The school I graduated from, James Madison University, is in the same Colonial Athletic Conference ... sweet! OK, GMU finished 15-3 while JMU finished 2-16, but that's not the point. More importantly, I'm excited for GMU because I'm a native of NoVa (that is, Northern Virginia; NoVa is a suburb of D.C. and often distinguished from the rest of Virginia for hosting the Pentagon, Langley, America Online and other tech companies, Tysons Corner, and 25% of the Virginia population) and pratically grew up next to its campus in Fairfax. I used to deliver food there when I was a kid!! There must be crazy celebrations going on back home right about now... Can they really beat no. 1-ranked UConn??

Spring is always the most exciting season, as far as sporting events go. I always look forward to NCAA basketball, Major League Baseball, the Masters, and the French Open. Ooohh, the anticipation...
