I guess I'm just a little sore cause I took a half day at work for the game just to get to watch 10 mins of the game.

I missed most of the games because I spent the entire day taking care of an animal that was hit by a car :( Damn Humane Society is taking their sweet time showing up..

Being from WVU I now have respect for the team, Pittsnogle should have played a larger part, played ball against him few weeks ago and saw him hit a jumpshot from opposite end of the court effortlessly.

Other then the underdog's totally fucking up my tournament, still in second within group. now if only the underdog can continue all the way behind NCST to the end :lol:

There are only 2 things you can count on in this world. One is that the government will take too much of your money to throw away. The other is the annual second round exit of the UC Bearcats. As much as I hate the entire NCAA basketball tournament, I have to say that the round 2 exit generally makes me giddy.

I got hit pretty hard in the second round but I still have a 1000 potential points. None of my final four teams are out of it yet.

I'm surprised the Arizona Wildcats haven't choked yet.

If UofA makes it to the final four, I'll pull for them as a resident of Arizona. Other than that, fuck them!

Sun Devil for life! Goooo Devils! :twisted:

NC State looked good beating UConn this weekend. They move the ball well. I'll pull for them next round.

Holy.. you're right, watched that and it was insane. Extremely well executed game ending. And not just the final shot (which was amazing) but the miss on the freethrow as well.

I am sitting in good shape right now. I won 3 of my 4 games yesterday. West Virginia is annoying the hell out of me though. I pick Louisville to beat them though to reach the final four.

Damn Dorf, you must be in the top 60,000 out of 2.3 million I think. Nice job.

I won't win this one, but I am in good position to finish high. Unfortunately the team I had winning it is gone already.
When I was younger, I used to think that the world was doing it to me and that the world owes me some thing…When you're a teeny bopper, that's what you think. I'm 40 now, I don't think that anymore, because I found out it doesn't f--king work. One has to go through that. For the people who even bother to go through that, most assholes just accept what it is anyway and get on with it." - John Lennon

My bracket went all to hell...but I have Louisville in the final four. Call it home team spirit! But I really hope they get far since Garcia is going to be a lottery pick for the NBA, even though he isn't really ready to go.

Down go two ACC teams to two Big 10 teams. Let's see if the ACC can get even one team into the Elite 8.

Tied for 6th with Voro. I have no chance to win, but as long as I beat Voro I will be happy.

Stellar drama yesterday, with both games going into OT. I love this game!

I was on the edge of my seat the whole game between Louisville and West Virginia. THEY COULD NOT MISS A 3 POINT SHOT...I thought Louisville was destined to lose, I have never seen so many people shoot like that it was amazing. I was pissed however that the last 2 calls on Garcia which foul'd him out were completely iffy calls. Maybe I'm just biased, but especially that last call was bullshit. We still came back and won but I didn't think it would happen with Garcia foul'd out and Dean on the bench with cramps. Louisville has played hurt all year. Hats off to them, was definately a good game :D
