If you thought your bracket in the NCAA tournament was screwed, cheer up – it can’t be any worse than the sorry state of Paul Pierce’s.
Granted, the guy has made about a kajillion more dollars than you during his twelve-year career with the Boston Celtics, but at least you can take solace in the fact that you are faring better than him in the pursuit of bracketology excellence.
That’s something, right? No? It’s the little things, people. Learn to cherish them.
Pierce’s disgraceful bracket in all its ineptitude after the jump.

Hoo boy, that ain’t pretty. Look at all that red! As pointed out over at BDL, you cannot fault Pierce for picking Kansas to go all the way, given he’s an alum and the fact that Kansas was a trendy pick heading into the tournament. Heck, they even fooled yours truly, and I’m like the Nostradamus of NCAA tournament selections (not really – I stink too), but only one team remaining in his Final Four picks? Two in the Elite Eight? And he only picked an abysmal five Sweet Sixteen teams? I’m going to take a stab and argue that even if you tried to pick games incorrectly, you could still do better than five out of sixteen.
Oops. Perhaps “take a stab” is not the best choice in words here, all things considered.
