March Madness 2015 - The Official DP Bracket

Yup. I'm running late on filling out and revealing my bracket. Actually, very late in comparison to years past. Nonetheless, better late than never! And really, because of my awe for this year's Kentucky team, it really doesn't matter.

I've seen three Kentucky games this year (though their opening obliteration game against Hampton shouldn't count, but furthered my opinion) and I have been thoroughly impressed. Not because of their overwhelming undefeated record, though that is the result, but because...well...they're just so good! So damn big!

I'm very sure opposing players are telling their coaches mid-game against Kentucky that very line from Ivory Christian in Friday Night Lights...

"They're fast, they're big, they're dirty...plus they're fast!"

Because of that dominance, I am going with Kentucky over the field. Seriously, for the first time ever, I really feel there is no need in wasting time in filling out a bracket full of chalk picks. Until someone beats this squad, it's hard for me to care about anything else.

And yes, I'll be watching the tournament closely to see who I'd like my New York Knicks to select with their upcoming, brand-spankin'-new first round pick. Hooray tanking season!!

With all of that stated, below is the official Dome Pondering March Madness bracket. I'm sure you'll quickly notice the theme and trend in this year's selections.

Would You Rather: Questions 121-130

This edition of "Would You Rather" is credited to the NBA Would You Rather NBA Account on Instagram ( See Here ). Adding to the fun, this edition (and possibly future ones) are all NBA basketball questions. 121. Who would you rather have on your favorite NBA team - Giannis Antetokounpo or James Harden? Seeing how I'm a lifelong suffering Knicks fan, the thought of any of these guys in blue and orange is hard to believe. With that said, I'm taking the Greek Freak for this reason - I enjoy watching him play a bit more. Nothing against Harden who is amazing as well, but at times, the ball sticks and that isn't always fun. Plus, I feel like we haven't yet seen a finished Giannis. 122. Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability? This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...

The Pondering 10 - Yankees All-Decade Team for 2010s

I thought I would stay away from the "all-decade" shenanigans, but I got suckered in after all. Around here, end of year rankings, reviews, and reflections rule, so why not compose a list that embodies it all? And why not put together a list around my beloved Yankees? Especially in a decade in which they DID NOT win the World Series. Gasp! With all of that said, please see below not only my list of the Yankees All-Decade Team (because everyone can filter by position), but also by importance and contribution throughout the decade.

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 9/13/26

The Sunday Sundown Rundown (formerly in the format of "3 Up and 3 Down") is where I share thoughts on three topics that piqued my interest, along with my favorite photo from the week. 25th Anniversary of 9/11 It is sort of hard to imagine that it has been twenty-five years since that awful day. It's been fifteen years since I've shared my experience as a High Schooler in Brooklyn, NY , and everything that came with that day (and the many to follow afterwards). The world changed, and to this day, it still feels hard to grasp what happened (and what transpired with the health of so many afterwards). The lives lost, and the damage done. My son learned about 9/11, and his questions around it ignite some of that struggle with thought around it. Daddy, how did they get the planes? Did the building just, like, fall over? On this 25th anniversary, it is even more concerning to see how the day is also politicized and sometimes weaponized in culture wars. I remember Americ...
