My heart goes to New England... ...my head goes to...

I am a big fan of the New England regional as among the toughest in the nation (er ah... ...world).

But then again, now with the NH regional and J&J right in the same neighborhood, it is not the same as in the "old days" of '96-'98...

Now that I think about it, I come back to numbers and statistics. With the exception of newish regionals where rookie and 2nd year teams are over represented, I think that good teams are more or less evenly distributed over the set of regionals so...

...which one will be the toughest to win? Easy, the Canadian Regional because it will have the most teams to beat.

I am not saying that this will mean that the winner of the Canadian regional will be odds on favorites at the Championships however...

...I reserve that spot for any team with the audacity to win both the Detroit and the San Jose Regionals...

...now who could that possibly be? ;-)

Go Chiefs!
