Hate to break it to you but he will. It’s the easy pick and requires no thought at all.

you make the assumption that he makes the picks..

He is to lazy for that.

They are made for him and handed to him.

His pick won’t matter. There are a number of teams better than Florida. On any given day the best team can loose.

Florida can win it, but they have flaws, but then again there isn’t a team that doesn’t have flaws.

I do like that when Florida needs a stop they get it. That could be what propels them to the title....But I wouldn’t be surprised if this was a year where a 4 or 5 seed gets hot at the right time and wins it all.

Is anybody else here besides myself sick to death of seeing Obama’s mug show up in EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE? When you think about it, in terms of shear numbers of his images in the media, this guy has a far greater presence than Mao did in China and Stalin and Lennon did in the Soviet Union. I mean, talk about your real life “Big Brother”! I think obama has actually been using “1984” as his blueprint, rather than what to avoid.

He probably will. His amazing insight into what’s supposedly his favorite sport revolves around picking mostly #1 seeds. Truly a visionary and a risk-taker.

I did....I’m a UK fan.

Was it a choke or a UK comeback?

I suppose it was both, but Florida couldn’t hit a FT to save their lives, and that’s what worries me.

That’s right. Florida really deserved to loose, and I thought they were going to until the last second. Not an SEC fan, but us Memphians dislike Calipari so much I would root for Podunk U over KY.

After the game, I felt like they lost. It was definitely more relief than anything.

True.

Never have understood how you can hit a three at a high percentage, but not hit free throws.

One of the perplexities of basketball.
