Ya they were definitely chanting Boston Strong.

Noah's a man. He's 40.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 06:13 AM) So if Rose doesn't come back, he's a p****. But if he does come back, he is selfish and just trying to be the hero. Sounds like a no win. Sit out, go through a preseason and dominate next year. I blame Adrian Peterson. oh cmon man. He's been cleared for over 2 months now, he's as ready physically as he can possibly be, there's no f***in reason for him not to be back playing. I've backed Derrick as much as anyone since the beginning of his career but I've lost a ton of respect for him these last few months.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Mar 21, 2013 -> 10:57 AM) Did I miss some new rule where coaches have that kind of authority? Once they're on campus, only the NCAA can grant waivers on that. Nope. You're correct.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Mar 19, 2013 -> 04:58 PM) Nice dunk but people are overreacting on this dunk and D Jordan's dunk on Knight. I don't find a dunk on a way smaller player all that impressive. I like dunks when they are on equal sized or larger opponents but that's just me. Kobe on Dwight Howard for example, that's a dunk. It's not that they dunked on small guys, it's the fact they both caught the ball so far away from the hoop, flew into a body and were still able to finish. They were both amazing dunks.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:56 PM) Zags could (should) play a top-10 team on Pomeroy in the second round. Veeeerrrryyy interesting. Zags got by far the toughest 8-9 draw IMO. Pitt or WSU(I do think it will be Pitt) will definitely present Gonzaga with problems, I love this Zags team though, they'll get through me thinks.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:52 PM) Damn you Rowand, Bucknell was MY brilliant upset pick! I had St. Mary's too. I feel like Minnesota over UCLA is the easiest upset pick in the field, especially with Jordan Adams out. Love me some Mike Muscala and not a fan of either of those higher seeds in that pod, sets up nice for either Bucknell or Davidson to be the Cinderella into the 2nd weekend. Ya I have Minny too, forgot to put that on here. I'm sure that'll be a trendy pick. Would have actually taken the Gophers even if Adams didn't go for that block over the weekend.

I'm boring this year and only have one double digit seed in the s16 and that's Bucknell. Besides the 8/9 and 7/10 games my 1st round upsets are: Bucknell obviously Belmont Either MTSU or St Mary's Jackrabbits over Michigan

Always fun to see who everyone has as the bracket buster...

Louisville Gonzaga VCU Miami

If I were a Miami fan, I'd be happy with this draw over what the 1 in the West is, easiest road to the regional final out of any of the 1-2's imo.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 05:23 PM) I'm with you. I don't see that happening but that'd be cool. Memphis will lose to either MTSU or the Gaels.

I was hoping for the Burke-Wolters matchup. Jackrabbits can definitely win that game. Then VCU vs either Burke or Wolters will be a blast.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 05:38 PM) ND vs ISU should be fun. All offense, no defense game. Should be a lot of fun.

I wonder if that Ole Miss win oddly enough got them and MTSU in. I'm thinking MTSU and Lasalle are going to be your last two in. Tennessee out, Virginia out.

This thing is seriously making it's way around my fb feed now, a lot of people sharing the article. Lol.

Steve's story has now reached random people on my fb feed. The trolling for hits thing has worked to perfection.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:09 AM) Not quite, Thursday tops today. Well duh but today is still one of my favorite days of the yr. Week long Christmas. Or Hanukkah. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:13 AM) BTW, does Louisville have the midwest regional now instead of IU? I would think so.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:44 AM) Akron! My dad grew up in Akron and him and seems like most of his family went to college there so it was nice to see them overcome their PG being a moron. I have no clue what to think of them now. Loved them before Abreu got suspended then they looked awful for a few games and then they look great last night. Hopefully they play a tough 4 or 5 so I don't have to think about them too much ha.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Southern Miss sucks, in no way do I want them in the tourney.

Derrick needs to drink some sizzurp and get in the game.

I don't approve of everyone drinking at 9 am while I'm stuck at work. Not cool everyone else in Chicago, not cool.

Steve explain yourself...

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 16, 2013 -> 07:20 AM) I just went from six to midnight. They're just toying with our emotions.
