Expect the unexpected

Peyton Manning signs with the Broncos.

Tim Tebow lands with Jets.

Tiger Woods wins his first golf tournament in more than 2 1/2 years.

What a whacky couple of weeks it has been. But that's what makes sports what it is. It will be hard to Tebow wearing green and white. It will be next to impossible to see Manning wearing the Denver logo.

It won't be surprising at all to see Tiger slipping on the famed Augusta Green Jacket after the Masters next week, but it would have been six months ago considering just how badly the former No. 1 player in the world was playing.

The Final Four is set and if there's a team that went into — and remained — the team to beat in NCAA Tournament, Kentucky certainly is. Bitter in-state rival Louisville awaits the Wildcats in the national semifinals, with the winner of Ohio State and Kansas in the wings.

If the pattern holds, you can expect to see Kentucky coach John Calipari cutting down the nets Monday in New Orleans.

Then again, ask me two weeks ago and I would have said with as much certainty you would be seeing Manning in the Colts blue and white and Tebow in Denver.

Just goes to show, you never know.
