Same news, two different stories.

Two small news alerts. The second one is from The New York Times: 1.  The Guardian US adds 175,000 jobs in April in 40th straight month of gains as unemployment stays below 4% in longest such streak since 1953 2. Breaking News U.S. employers added 175,000 jobs in April, a downshift in the pace of hiring. The unemployment rate ticked up to 3.9 percent.

    With no quarterbacks in the second round, it's the third time in seven years that zero QBs have gone in the second round. In the other four years, only one has gone in the second.

    Absolutely.

    It was pretty much a toss up until UConn had their surge towards the end and the threes stopped dropping for Bama.

    Looking forward to both Finals.
