This has already been one hell of a strange NCAA Tournament, with my bracket’s Elite 8 missing just one team, and yet I have no chance of winning my pool. Oh, and I suppose it’s also strange because you have Florida Gulf Coast University as the first 15-seed to ever make the Sweet 16 after humiliating No. 2 Georgetown on Friday night. But obviously we all care about my bracket more.

Soon we’ll watch a “One Shining Moment” video montage that will feature the stars of FGCU’s Dunk City and La Salle’s whatever it is they do, as well as poor Gonzaga alum John Stockton up there, as he pouted to Gonzaga’s 76-70 loss to Wichita State on Saturday night. Poor, John. Nothing good ever happens to him.

Former Gonzaga standout Raenna Jewell was busted for inappropriate relations with a minor. Not like a miner in a mine, or a mimer with a mime. They’re just called mimes. Anyway, Jewell was the Apache Junction High School freshman girls basketball and softball coach, and the article doesn’t say whether the 16-year-old in question was swinging the lumber or taking it to the hole. Break it down for us, Badjocks:

According to reports, Jewell, 25, was first arrested on suspicion of sexual conduct with a minor back on March 29, three days after cops received a report from the victim’s mother about some “suspicious text messages” being exchanged between her daughter and Jewell. Uh, oh.

Text messaging is going to take down an entire country one day, I can feel it. Can you imagine if Nixon had a cell phone? Actually, that’s a bit different, since the only person he tried to screw was, well, everyone.

Gonzaga may have lost, but at least no one was crying on court before the game ended.
