I watched...it was a good game.

And truth be told there have been many good games in this tournament.

I think I may root for Kentuck. I have a friend with a really little niece that she taught a cute cheer for. I guess that’s a good a reason as any. :)

.....And with the HOPE that the men will share the same word: CHAMPIONS for a change.

Now it sets up nicely.

Either Florida avenges their two losses this season, or they knock-off Kentucky 4 times in one season.

Of course, if Kentucky beats us in the final, that’s really going to suck.

If you’re keeping score.

That’s

SEC (The football conference) : 2 teams in the Final Four
Big-Ten (The greatest basketball conference ever) : 1 team in the Final Four

The best basketball conference ever, before it faded was really the Big East, not the Big-Ten. Big-Ten came in a very close second. The SEC is trying to make a comback in b-ball.

I was just repeating what Big Ten fans were saying.

Well more or less surprised. The MI/KY game was a running game.

About a week or two ago, ESPN did a doc called “Requim For A Conference” about the old Big East. Very interesting doc. Last night they did something about Pat Summit. They do good docs given an opportunity.

As noted, the higher seeded team always wears white; same of the host team in non-tourney games.

Looks like there will be some I R S audits at Michigan State. Maybe a no knock EPA raid or two as well.

Or as posted earlier, UConn sends the last number 1 packing.

Gotcha. I see you’re a UConn fan. Since they beat Michigan State it won’t bother me at all if the Huskies win the championship.

Don’t understand how anyone can like the Red Sox with all them scraggly beards.

Oh yeah, every Brewer pitcher will have a 0.00 ERA as well. Logically, that means every Brewer pitcher is as good as Verlander. And if you believe that, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell to you.

Haha. That was funny.

What I meant was JV had a 0.00 ERA for the just-finished Grapefruit League season. Don’t be surprised if he throws another no-no tomorrow.

No, you are mistaken. Feckless leader has a perfect bracket, just like his Korean counterpart.

Wisconsin is in the final four and the Big Ten.
