Dear Diary: A look ahead

 
 
Dear Diary: A look ahead   April 18, 2008

WICHITA, Kan. — Whereas I usually try to use Diary entries to get you caught up on things happening off the lanes and making a feeble attempt to say something cute, today was spent nearly entirely on them, so we’ll pass on that.

Other than this — I love Buffalo Wild Wings. I’ll leave it at that.

Here is a look at the bracket in which our teams will compete when double-elimination pool play begins Friday morning. I’ll go down each bracket as it appears, meaning you can follow along to see who will play whom in the second round.

After that, of course, it’s anyone’s guess.

As Ozzy would say, see you tomorrow:
