QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 02:15 PM) The four seed I have going home early is actually Purdue. Sadly, so do I

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 02:07 PM) Exciting game... just wish Florida could have finished it off. Now time hopefully for upset special #2. Murray St.!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 01:33 PM) they just said 7 straight first round losses. Oh I'm aware, I don't know why I talk myself into taking them. That Mountain West Conference is so damn hard to pin.

Every year I take BYU, they are so damn frustrating. Florida deserves to lose for just getting into the tourney.

9 seconds left from what the internet is telling me in ODU game, please hold on Monarchs! I hope the foul here, imo you should. Edit: FINAL!!! Off to a good start in bracket, now to root on BYU.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 12:13 PM) It isn't their defense that is killing em, it's their offense. Awful so far. I dont know why Scottie Reynolds didn't start the game. I'm not able to watch, work, saw bits and pieces at lunch. But defense usually reason for them.

The amount of 3s Notre Dame is launching is ridiculous.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 12:10 PM) Nova down 7 with 11 mins left. WTF I hope they lose Got them going down in Rd 2. Defense wins

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 12:05 PM) Even if ND goes down, I have them losing to Baylor anyway. That's how I usually look at the first rd games too if my team loses. Should be a good ending, BYU game is close too.

Monarchs not looking too bad. They remind me a bit of Xavier. Hopefully they can pull it out. ODU in the bonus!

Kansas over Kansas St West Virginia over Baylor Kansas over West Virginia

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 17, 2010 -> 12:19 PM) Their defense is not remotely close to what it was last year. Cunningham was definitely a big piece of last year's team.

Lewis Jackson should really think about going a size smaller in his shorts.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 13, 2010 -> 02:33 PM) I actually agree. They're easily one of the best 65 teams imo and they're better than all the bubble teams if you ask me, however, their resume is completely terrible and based on that alone, they really don't deserve to be in the field. Right, don't deserve to get in but the probably will. They are fortunate to be ranked #25 at the moment. But they have a potentially dangerous team in the tourney.

QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 13, 2010 -> 03:15 PM) Ok, Gophers. Time to beat Purdue and steal the spot away from Illinois. As much as I don't want Minnesota to win this game whatsoever, that is a valid reason why I wouldn't be upset if Purdue loses. I do think Gophers will upset Purdue.

Here are mine. Evan Longoria Kendry Morales Andrew McCutcheon Roy Halladay Yovanni Gallardo

See we got 9 now, 3 more. Everyone should post their keepers so that part of the process gets over with by the time the draft comes. Preferably in the league so it is easy for mhizzle to find.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Mar 10, 2010 -> 09:39 PM) As long as everyone that's signed up for the league is cool with it, I'm gonna go ahead and give up the 4 open spots. Only question, how should teams be assigned? I would say put the players from the 4 teams into a pool and have the remaining 4 people who fill the spots draft from that pool for their keepers. Idk how you would go about arranging this though. We might be better off starting from scratch, idk.

It is fun to watch some of the players get a kick out of his batting stances. Kinda surprising some of them take it so well lol. One with Manny and Rafael is good too.

Bad news for Nathan, he has been great for so many years now but I am tired of seeing him shut the door on us and other teams every time he comes in. This would put a nice little dent in their bullpen if he really is out for the season.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Mar 8, 2010 -> 06:53 PM) Is Siena considered a tourney team if they lose? Looking around a bit, most things on ESPN like Bubble Watch and Bracket Math don't have them as an at-large team should they lose. Jay Williams was talking about it on ESPN, said Lunardi said Siena would be out with a loss. Winner of this matchup is in and the loser is out. Siena looks flat and doesn't seem to care out there.

Easier on the eyes Maryland will have an interesting first round matchup, I'm thinking Duke over Clemson.

Shame, this would be Purdue's tournament to lose with a healthy Robby Hummel imo. Ohio St. should be the favorite to win it and I agree that Wisconsin will be the biggest challenge for the Buckeyes.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 09:59 PM) With the exception of day 1, this should be an awesome tournament. It's usually the best conference tournament in America, and I see no reason to think it'll be any different in 2010. Oh easily, I'm not sure there is even a clear favorite to win it. I am liking West Virginia. I could see Connecticut getting by Marquette and a maybe beating a Villanova team that has been trending downward too.

Kansas over Baylor
