and we have a winner!

have i mentioned that ian and rupert (JR) are sports fans? with his penchant for numbers, ian is a natural when it comes to remembering scores from any number of games, even some from months prior. i'm sure in the future he will be rattling off stats like a pro.

anyway, rupert was invited to join a yahoo group pool with some college friends when march madness started. ian wanted in too so he chose his winning teams in each bracket. we're a ucla family, so he chose ucla to go all the way (he also chose any north carolina team to win for awhile because, for some reason, he likes the state of north carolina).

guess who won? yup, it was ian. in a group with his dad (a lifelong sports fan), a former sports writer who works on the sports page of a newspaper, and guys with a phd and an mba, a kindergartener won the pool. go figure. too bad there was no money involved! hee!

i LOVE a story where the little guy wins in the end! he must have been SO puffed up with pride over beating his expert dad. maybe he has a future in horse gambling over at santa anita *lol* !
