  1. I am 0-for-BigEast/Big12 matchups
  2. That sounds like a fantastic idea. All I'm lacking are nachos, a green Sox batting helmet, and a Sox team capable of beating the Mariners.
  3. It may not happen today, but over time, we are going to start seeing more 15-2 upsets and probably even a 16-1 upset. Beginning last year there are now six #16 seeds, when there used to be just four, and then five for a while. At the bottom of the bracket, there is a bigger talent gap between teams, meaning that the sixth-worst team in the field is quite a bit better than the fourth-worst team and is much more likely to upset a #1 seed. That also means that the tenth-worst team is now a #15 seed instead of a #14, and is much more likely to knock off a #2 seed. You mention Lehigh as an example. They are #82 in the Pomeroy ratings. Virginia Tech is #83 and they lost to Duke 3 times by 4-5 points each time.
  4. IF that is what actually happened, then I agree. I think it's a bad precedent for the NFL to tell a player, no matter how checkered his past is, that he can't stand up for his family.
  5. I had the opposite thing happen to me with WVU-Gonzaga.
  6. Haven't had a steak in quite a while.
  7. K-State wins. Always good to get those 8-9 games right
  8. Could you imagine Wisconsin vs USF?
  9. Murray wins. I get to have a perfect bracket for at least 20 minutes.
  10. Doug got on my last nerve in 1996 when he accused me of being anti-Semitic.
  11. The fans, crowds, and fireworks will still be there after July 31. Any given player may not.
  12. Only thing I changed was having Vanderbilt beat Syracuse once the Melo suspension was announced.
  13. As an MSU fan, I'd trade spots in the bracket with Mizzou in a heartbeat.
  14. The city of Ephesus is in what is now Southwestern Turkey, but over its history it has been ruled by the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, and Ottomans. It was under Roman rule during biblical times.
  15. They are the people who can relate best to the hosts.
  16. The source BELIEVES they had no idea, the source doesn't KNOW they had no idea. I have sources that BELIEVE I would make a better radio host than Dan Bernstein.
  17. What kind of source is this? Seems a bit premature since his visit to the Titans just began less than an hour ago.
  18. Syracuse must be John Boehner's pick.
  19. Moving kickoffs to the 35 has certainly hurt his value.
  20. WKU is playing like they're a team with a losing record.
  21. Yeah, I think my take on it is, "You don't want the Little League associated with the strip club, then make it rain about $1200 and we'll return their money."
  22. I have done that before, but in a different way. For each game I did (x+y-1) coin flips, where x and y are the seeds of the teams. Team X needs to win x flips to advance and team Y needs to win y flips to advance.
