Well, Drake has certainly made for a nervewracking afternoon.  OT right now.  Solid win for Davidson.  Unfortunately, St. Marys couldn't do the same.

I know it was you, Rogers. You broke my heart. YOU BROKE MY HEART!

I'm slowly losing my annual battle with insanity... Western Kentucky didn't help by playing amazing basketball. I hate the Korvers.

Also, I had Duke yesterday in my bracket but was still really disappointed when Belmont blew it. Has anyone ever seen a worse play out of a timeout then the one that the Belmont coach drew up? 4 seconds left, ball under basket, chance to beat Duke, and he runs a high risk play with ONE OPTION!!!!!! Off a double screen, and all Duke had to do was switch off the screen and the play was blown. When it wasn't there, the inbounder just threw it to the elbow and watched Duke pick it off. All game long CBS was talking about what a good coach Rick Byrd was, and that's the best he could do?!?! Downright shameful... no wonder he was routed by Georgetown and UCLA in his only two other appearances. This isn't the Atlantic Sun Conference anymore Rick... Coach K probably recruits guys who know how to switch off a screen on an inbound with 4 seconds left. Even if they don't, he's Coach K. He probably covered it at some point.
"Let me call him," Floyd said.

The man shook his head. "O.J. doesn't give out his cell," he said. "He'll call you."

My bracket is a mess but at least I can say that I picked W. Kentucky to go to the sweet 16. My Pitt to the final four prediction isn't looking as good though.

So many teams I could pick with me sitting at 138th place.  (what a fall from winning last year)



What is shocking to me is I am still tied with the most possible points (along with quite a few other players) of 880. 

So if I was to go perfect from this point on (completely unlikely) there is the remote chance I could win (mission impossible)

Wow.  "Mean Gerald Green" in the 99.9 percentile.  That is impressive.  Not a lot of red in that bracket.
