Reply With QuoteWell, I did enter a bracket at CBS... at this point I'll be impressed if it doesn't finish last. Stupid Mizzou, may you be cursed to always finish near the bottom of the SEC.
Well, yeah. Lehigh gets Slippery Rock's castoffs. What else would they be?Originally Posted by -Jrabbit

Just looked at my results and was dismayed to see how bad I was doing. Then I looked at our league standings and saw I'm in second! OK... But Tuberski still has more possible points than me if Kentucky goes all the way. Still, things won't shake out until end of weekend. Much better idea where we all stand, then.
Nice work so far, JR.
I don't even look at it until Sunday night.

Yeah, it's kind of pointless until then.
The OT at APOLYTON is like watching the Special Olympics. Certain people try so hard to debate despite their handicaps.
Baron O RIP.
I'm at the site looking at my golf stuff (yeah, that does me a lot of good) so I look at any other fantasy stuff I'm doing. But it's well past Sunday night now and JR and I are still top two. Of course, early leaders usually don't lead to a win.
OK, well let me crow about how awesome I am and about how all the rest of you suck.
At least until Thursday.

Shaka Smart says "No" to Illinois
Bummer, but not a surprise. Shaka has turned down a couple other big offers previously.

Bad night for the Big 10 on Thursday, saved only by Ohio State playing up to expectations.
-Wisconsin did well to get back in the game with a chance to win it at the end, but Bo Ryan apparently doesn't have a play for that situation. I still don't think Syracuse will make the final 4.
-Michigan State shocked me with their lackluster play. They looked like they knew they were beaten for most of the 2nd half. Not in the Tom Izzo tradition. Louisville was WAY better than the last time I saw them.

He can still be knocked out of 1st by quite a few people if either Kansas or Syracuse loses. We had better hope that Louisville beats Florida though.
Man, I hate Kansas.
North Carolina too, so I guess I was doomed to have mixed feelings on this game.

On behalf of my family, I have this statement to release to the press for immediate publication.
I have no interest in becoming the next head coach of the University of Illinois men's basketball team.
(I figure that since everyone else is releasing the same statement to the press, I might as well get in on the action too. )
So does that mean we get the guy from Butler? Cuz he says he's interested.
