QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 3, 2012 -> 08:14 PM) Why is that a problem? Two clear favorites is more than enough to fill out your bracket. Syracuse has such a gigantic weakness that I don't think they can be considered a favorite. Anywho, congrats Gage! LBSU's at large hopes took a huge hit tonight.

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Mar 3, 2012 -> 03:57 PM) Who do you root for now? Northwestern or the Valley to get 3 teams in? Cats. I'd love for both to happen but if I had to choose 1 I'll take NU over UE or the Red Birds.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 2, 2012 -> 11:23 AM) Which means it will happen, since you predict it won't. Ha I would say that's true but everytime you call me out on a prediction I end up being right. So you just ruined it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 2, 2012 -> 11:12 AM) @GoodmanCBS: Source also told CBSSports that SIU will target Bruce Weber if he's let go at Illinois. That's a pipe dream, not gonna happen.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 1, 2012 -> 11:26 AM) Long Beach State is really, quite good. Yes they are. I hope they don't stumble in their conference tourny cause as I sadi earlier in this thread they're a very unique case and I have no clue what the committee would do with them. CSU also won last night so more bad news for other bubble teams.

Oh and I hope everyone will tune in tonight to watch the embarrassment that is SIU basketball.

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 10:39 PM) Did anyone notice the set up for the Horizon League tournament? I was checking it tonight to see what Butler's road back to the big dance was and noticed a different bracket than I've ever seen. The #1 and #2 seeds - Valpo and Cleveland St get byes all the way to the semifinals (3rd round). They have seeds 3 thru 10 play opening round games and the four winners play each other Friday night. The winners of those two games advance to the semis against the 1 and 2 seeds. It works out that the top two seeds have to win two games to win the tournament and everyone from three down would have to win four. I've never seen a tournament stacked like that to favor the top teams. The other wrinkle is that Valpo is the host. But if they lose in the semifinals on Saturday, the finals take place at the home of the highest remaining seed on Tuesday. Again, maybe small conferences do things differently, but I've never seen the tournament location move depending on who won. The horizon has done this for a bit. There are some smaller conferences that have some fun set ups.

Giant sad face plus USF and Cinci probably got in tonight as well. Cats are in trouble.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 01:11 AM) It all depends on the draw obviously, but the 5-12 matchup usually springs an upset or 2. I'm with ya. Depends on the matchup obviously but I think there's a good chance they'll be gone in the 1st round, id be pretty damn surprised if they make it passed the 1st weekend.

Catch-All Anything Thread
QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 27, 2012 -> 10:45 PM) Obviously with Rose you're sharing that with like a million other people, but that probably never stopped anyone from buying Jordan's jersey. Sale is a nice pick...I like that....I bought my Danks jersey before he ever pitched for us and it's been pretty cool having that throughout his entire mlb career with us...especially the first year when people still didn't really know who he was. Ya it's funny what you brought up with Rose cause I'm the type of person that almost always buys unique jerseys(never had a PK or Buehrle and had a Damaso Marte gray) but Derrick is one of those special players that I feel like I need a jersey of. And ya I've had a man crush on Sale since I saw him throw a baseball for the first time.

Might get a few fun answers here: I'm going to be re-starting my jersey collection here soon and was debating on the first two that I should buy. Right now I'm thinking Rose and Sale. Any suggestions?

Adam Dunn on the Chris Sale diet?
QUOTE (Heads22 @ Feb 27, 2012 -> 05:41 PM) If nothing else, it appears that he's trying. Yup. This certainly can't be a bad thing but I'll wait to see him hit a baseball before I get excited. Definitely happy to see that he worked hard this offseason though.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Feb 26, 2012 -> 08:17 PM) You guys going to want a March Madness sub forum again? Do we want to put conference tourney stuff in there? I don't remember what we did before as far as that. Horizon League is the first to begin on the 28th. I was actually just going to start bugging you about that. I love the sub forum, very necessary imo. And yes we always open it when the conference tournys start.
