NCAA Tournament
 
I know I'm not the only one here keeping up with the tournament?

How are you guys' brackets doing? Mine is....dead. I'd rather not think about it. I had Kansas going all the way and Villanova going to the Final 4 but obviously that got crushed pretty early. Actually I don't know anyone who has had a really good bracket this year.

I don't really have a specific team I'm rooting for, but here are the things that need to happen, in order of priority:

1) Duke needs to lose. I will root for anyone playing the dookies.

2) Kentucky needs to lose. (Unless of course they are playing dook, in which case GO WILDCATS)

So I guess go Syracuse? Or go West Virginia?

What are you guys' thoughts on this crazy tournament?

I love upsets! Actually, though, I just want the Spartens to lose because I'm a U of M fan.

wow dude, you want my 2 teams(Duke and Kentucky) to lose? lol I'm doing pretty good, got a perfect bracket so far

perfect bracket for the 4.0 student xD

(and no I'm not the guy that was featured on yahoo sports news a few days ago...he too has a perfect bracket,so far)

I try to, but since my team got eliminated and there are quite a few "new" teams I am not following as much.

By new I meant that a lot of the traditional teams like UConn and the The Tar Heels are not in.

Definitely a sad year for the Heels, especially coming off the championship last year. I'm having a hard time these days, rooting for the Heels while at the same time trying to pretent the NIT doesn't exist...

also saw this on ESPN
"According to Book Of Odds, the chances of picking the first two rounds of this NCAA tournament are one in 13,460,000, which means you have a better chance of winning the lottery twice over."

I'm sorry man but that is something I cannot believe without proof. Nothing personal.

...not to mention the fact that the odds of attaining a perfect bracket are 1 in 35,360,000,000. (Or, according to Book Of Odds, "almost 18 times worse than your odds of being killed by a waterspout in a year [1 in 1,988,000,000]."
Edit: dang it Syracuse, come on.... there's another bracket disaster

Cannonfury 03-29-2010 02:02 AM

My money is on Butler. They are just taking names.

jason davy 04-04-2010 05:16 AM

Dang it WV. Well Butler, you're my team now. One last chance to send those University of New Jersey at Durham boys home crying. Let's get it done.

jason davy 04-07-2010 04:24 AM

This got caught pretty fast, unfortunately.

I liked Conan O'Brien's tweet. He wanted Butler to win so that he could say that "The Butler did it."

Cannonfury 04-07-2010 06:13 AM

Duke!!!! Yes!!!!! I love Duke!!! OMG all 4 of my teams won....for pro baseball(NY yankees) for football(alabama), both mens and womens basketball....Duke and Uconn!!! :D
