Here’s a photograph of me with Frank Caliendo from this (Friday) morning.
After a recent television appearance alongside his wife, Frank said he received countless text messages from folks saying “Your wife is hot!” (Jay Leno told him that his wife got twice as many saying “Your husband is chubby!”). Well, now Frank has a still image alongside someone who can’t make him feel so insecure.

At this time, Frank is, without a doubt, the best comedian and impersonator on the planet. His mockery of John Madden was so overdue. But don’t underestimate Frank as an NFL handicapper, he’s the only broadcaster other than me to pick the NY Giants to win SB XLII (okay, I took them along with the 11 ½ points).

Tickets are remaining to see Frank at the Cobb Energy Centre (3/28).

The odds of correctly picking every game in your March Madness office pool is 9.2 quintillion to 1. Well, more specifically, there are 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 combinations to the brackets. If you stacked all those possible brackets using paper stolen from your office copier, it would weigh 100,000 times more than every human being on the planet (and yes, that’s even including those from Minnesota).

This is according to RJ Bell. He must be one of those guys who used to sit up front in algebra class and brag how he was going to memorize pi during the summer break while the rest of us would be playing little league baseball.

Actually, RJ (the guy who crunched these numbers) was the only sports bettor who made the most recent list of Forbes Gambling Gurus. Not sure what that is, but it sure sounds cool. I’m a little miffed that no one even told me there was such a thing when it was time for me to decide on a career. My high school guidance teacher really did suck.

RJ Bell calculated that even if you had 90% chance of winning each bet (like Pete Rose did in the games that he was actually managing in) your odds of a perfect March Madness bracket are still only 763 to 1.

Doubt I even have a 50/50 shot of getting Tuesday night’s lead-in game correct. Does anyone know what the school nickname is for Coppin State University? What are Mount St. Mary’s team colors? It won’t make any difference since RJ also says that if every human on earth randomly filled out an office poll, the chance that even one of them would be perfect is 1.5 billion to 1.

Not sure, but did I did also read somewhere that those are the exact same odds that anyone on the PGA tour has of beating Tiger Woods this year?
