  1. I would have won $1500 in 1993 if Chris Webber knew the difference between one timeout left and zero timeouts left. Since then, Michigan has toughened the entrance requirements so that players now have to know the difference between zero and one.
  2. Lehigh Athletics ‏@LehighSports Welcome to the club @MercerBears. #BeatDuke pic.twitter.com/Th0g2hl0k5
  3. Atlantic Sun having quite a run these last two years.
  4. If he's on waivers, why would the Sox give up anything to get him?
  5. I agree in principle, although in this particular case, the human polls came closer to what the advanced metrics were saying than did the RPI.
  6. Right, but the RPI either needs to drastically change or be de-emphasized. Aside from being in the top 5 in the human polls, Louisville is in the Top 5 in the Pomeroy and ESPN BPI ratings, and pretty much any other newer metric. RPI weighs schedule strength very heavily. I think that's perfectly fine when evaluating bubble teams and deciding who gets in (NC State) and who doesn't (SMU), but it shouldn't be given the same weight in the seeding process. A much fairer seeding would have gone like this: SOUTH: 1 Florida 2 Louisville 3 Duke 4 UCLA WEST: 1 Arizona 2 Michigan 3 Villanova 4 VCU MIDWEST: 1 Wichita State 2 Kansas 3 Wisconsin 4 Syracuse EAST: 1 Virginia 2 Villanova 3 Michigan State 4 Iowa St
  7. Yeah, I'm guessing that finding a good poker game in North Dakota may be a bit more of a challenge.
  8. The selection committee is supposed to put Dayton in the play-in games if they feel that's where they belong. If they chose not to do so because of Dayton being the host, then they weren't following instructions.
  9. You have to be trolling. Nobody is actually that stupid.
  10. Well, MSU is not a cinderalla, so I guess Dayton. A college classmate of mine is an assistant coach.
  11. I personally cannot wait to try to explain to their sales rep that I live 100+ miles from their nearest service area and see how (s)he responds.
  12. Not waking up for it, but if tonight's poker game is still going we'll probably put it on.
  13. You guys think you are sick of Pitino? Try living down here.
  14. Really? I thought everybody was picking MSU because of their uniforms.
  15. Very sorry to hear that. If he catches on with another organization, please come back and let us know.
  16. How about Viciedo, Keppinger, Thomspon and cash?
  17. I believe they will find that he's still dead.
  18. A college classmate of mine is an assistant coach at Dayton, and I'm happy for him even if he did just cost me a billion dollars.
  19. Except that there isn't going to be one.
  20. Fred Phelps, 84, founder of Westboro Baptist
  21. I have OSU winning three games, while a lot of people are picking a Dayton upset. This game will be a good barometer of how my brackets are going to go this year.
  22. I'd like to know what the park adjustment is for the Sydney Cricket Ground.
  23. I do 2 brackets when entering pools for $$$, but I will only claim "OH MAN I TOTALLY NAILED THAT UPSET/FINAL FOUR!" if it's with my #1 bracket.
  24. That thing would definitely take more walks.
