    March Madness

    Anyone filling out a bracket? Who's in your final four?

    My pick: UCLA, UNC, Texas, Georgetown

    UCLA winning it all

    I'm calling Kansas to win it all.

    UNC over Duke in the finals. I have no chance of winning my office pool, since one of the editors is picking teams based on best school colors. I bet she'll win it all.
    Can't you, just this once, f*** off?

    Heels. Heels. Heels. More Heels. Somewhere along the way someone will mop up the floor with Dook. I hope it's the HEELS!

    I'm assuming you go to UCLA because I doubt that they win it all thought I admit that I do not follow basketball as closely as I used to.

    Rule #2 Don't trick yourself into thinking you suck.
    Rule #3 Remember, bad footwork makes coach cry.

    My bracket is dead. And I'm not talking about mostly dead; I mean all dead. Three of my final four died in the Sweet 16.

    My bracket's still mostly full. I'm in first place at work and I've got the best shot at winning. This is awesome, because I know nothing about college basketball.

    People who know nothing are usually the ones to win bracket pools. 3 of my final 4 are still alive... UCLA games always give me a heart-attack, but we're still winning!

    Kansas Rolls... with dignity.

    Sasha Kaun comes off the bench for this team.... are you kidding me???

    Tarheels, get ready for the heart-break that is Roy Williams.

    Who do you think wants this more?

    NC looks like a cocky college squad who like running up the score... Kansas looks like a group of hardened pros...

    Roy Williams couldnt win a NC with a team of Jacque Vaughn, Scott Pollard, Greg Ostertag, Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce...

    How hard does Roy prepare to eff over a program he totally betrayed???

    Watch out.
    Take your time. Read carefully.

    Sweet sixteen games are usually closer than those blowouts yesterday...do you think the Elite Eight games will be tighter?

    My team ran into a buzz saw in the first round...the new Cinderella, Davidson, so I don't have so much emotional connection to the tournament.

    I'm still liking Kansas.

    My bracket is, amazingly, in tact. Go Kansas.

    Crazy Tarheels.... at least they can look back on that happy triple digit romp over Arkansas. Yea!!! Welcome to the real Roy Williams era. Enjoy.

    Now... Memphis?? Wow.

    The only game I really got to watch them play this year (prior to the tournament) was their game against Tennessee.

    a) they've gotten better (they were already good)
    b) They are scary scary big at the 2 and 3 positions
    c) Rose has become a man.

    Good to know...

    Looking forward to a great final on Monday
    Take your time. Read carefully.
