Tales 3 days before Selection Sunday

(Now with Reactionary Notre Dame Comments!)


Ok, I’ll try, TRY to get through this without any ridiculous Notre Dame/Mike Brey statements (like how maybe, JUST FUCKING MAYBE, it may have been worth abandoning the zone sooner than with 2 minutes left when it clearly wasn’t working and Marquette was shooting about 70% in the second half?!! Might that have been a good idea???....grrr...OK, I’ll stop...)


Hey, I think Georgetown just hit another 3...


Yeah, so that whole “picking UConn for the Elite eight” crap...You can go ahead and ignore that one, ok?



So, does anyone actually want to make the NCAA’s? Syracuse? St. Joe’s? UMass? UAB? Anybody? Maryland?


Speaking of the ACC, nothing warms my heart more than looking at their standings and seeing “BC: 4-12”…Still think it was worth it, fellows?…


In other ‘kicking you while you’re down’ news, nice no-show by Syracuse in the second half Wednesday. Somewhere, on that D-League trail, Gerry McNamara was crying in his Zima...


Well, here we go again with West Virginia. You know what that means? More fruit thrown at Maydog...


I have no evidence to prove it, but I think Seton Hall may have been the worst team to ever play in the BET.


I mean, come on: I was really pissed me off last year when all the idiots who hadn't seen ND play at all kept picking Winthrop based on a) the analysts' Winthrop love and b) the bias/hatred half the country has for ND. Throw in that there is now AMPLE evidence that they can't beat a good team in a big game away from South Bend. A win could have avoided all this. Now I get to hear this crap for the rest of the week. I mean, can you imagine if they're matched-up with George Mason? Or VCU? Or (gasp) Winthrop?

(Sorry, can’t help myself...I’ll let it go...)


Thanks a lot, Pitino...Someday I may actually predict the correct champion of this thing...Add Louisville to the ‘teams I just don’t fully trust’ entering next week, along with Tennessee, Kansas (as always), Southern Cal, Xavier, and, OF COURSE, Indiana...


OK, I know I’m biased, but Villanova probably should be in at this point…At least they WON a must-win game, unlike every other bubble team...


Congrats to the Big East Referees for earning a #1 seed in the “Worst Sports Officials Ever” Tournament. When I fill out my brackets, I definitely see them going far, but ultimately losing in the Final Four to fellow #1 seed “every NHL referee ever.”
