Exclamation OT - HS librarian might win Final Four contest
The story on the news here today was about HS librarian Diana Inch of Marion county, Oregon (area around Salem) who, apparently, is the only person out of hundreds of thousands that correctly picked the NCAAM final foul in a contest sponsored by Yahoo. If the final two games go as she picked, she'll win big bucks (according to the story - I'm not familiar with the Yahoo contest). BTW - she picked UConn over Butler in the final.

I believe two out 5.9 million ESPN brackets predicted the Final Four correctly.

Most of us don't have to be nervous watching the Final Four. But we wish we were.

Does this mean that Oregon is a basketball state, and not tree hugging like everyone thinks?
