Drake Bulldogs

Suddenly, the basketball team from Des Moines, IA is all the rage. My sister Cheryl lives there and has been going to games, and I've been a fan for many years (I even proudly wear a Drake sweatshirt).

The Bulldogs could do some real damage in the NCAA Tournament, which is only a few weeks away. They are 22-1, 13-0 in Missouri Valley Conference and have won 21 games in a row. They still have some convincing to do though as they are only ranked 15th in the nation.

I have to give credit to Ed's brother Chris, who jumped on the Drake bandwagon sometime ago. I thought it was kind of strange at the time that he would be cheering for Drake, but maybe he knew something nobody else did. Check out his blog here.
