Emmanuelle Chriqui is always a solid choice, especially any time you can find her wearing a bikini in a field somewhere. I wonder if that field is connected to a beach, because if not, it's pretty awesome that she just decided to walk around in a bikini even though there was no water near her. What's that? Photoshoot? Bullshit, that's candid.I'm serious, the CBI Tournament starts tonight. I filled out a bracket -- no, really -- as did some of my colleagues at work. Winner gets a beer from everyone. I probably have a better shot at winning this than I do at winning my actual tourney pool. (SB Nation)
Since I'm a Notre Dame fan, I'm going to make you read a story about Ben Hansbrough. I will fill out multiple brackets, and I will pick Kansas to win in all but one of them.

The Fennville boys basketball team had its season ended last night by Schoolcraft in the regional semifinals. Schoolcraft may be the best team in Class C, so no shame in losing that game, at all.

Sidney Crosby made big strides in one of the longest recoveries from a concussion in recent memory, putting on the skates and stepping onto the ice on Monday. For 15 minutes, anyway. Crosby isn't sure if he'll be back this season, but he's not retiring, as one rumor went. Chances are he won't be in the lineup on March 21 when the Penguins come to Detroit and I'll be in the crowd wearing my "Crosby Dive School" shirt. So, fuck. (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette)
This nuclear power plant in Japan is about to cause some serious problems for the already troubled Japanese. People are being told to "seal" themselves inside to avoid being contaminated by the radiation that's leaking into the air. So, fuck. (Huffington Post)
Today's Amazingness, and I'm only a little embarrassed to say I can't get enough of this damn song, is Lil' Wayne's "6 Foot 7 Foot":
