Yes, like most everyone else, my bracket broke badly over two days. And yet, I think this has been the best tourney in years. At least, I'm having more fun with my bracket, than I've had in years. Maybe it's my new attitude toward life..._________________ If you cannot inspire yourself to read a book about women's basketball, or any book about women's sports, you cannot inspire any young girl or boy to write a book about them. http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/Richardstrek

It certainly didn't come as a surprise that Yale went down by 27 points during the game against Duke.
But I was very surprised and happy to see that they came back to make it a game, cutting it to just 3 points before falling. |

The amazing part is that A&M didn't foul to make that comeback

There's now a chance a double-digit seed advances to the Final Four. We're guaranteed that either Gonzaga or Syracuse advances to the Elite 8, but is it possible one of them can take out Virginia (or Iowa St.)?? It has only happened three times before(2011 - [#11] VCU; 2006 - [#11] George Mason; & 1986 - [#11] LSU).

The officials really screwed Graham over. He should've been on the floor with his teammates till the end of the game. Why must officials remind us they exist during crucial moments of games?

Mine is not only merely dead, it's really most sincerely dead

Of the four teams I picked to win their way to the Final Four, only Oklahoma made it and they weren't either of the teams I thought would get to the title game or win it. |

Congratulations to Villanova. They did what they had to do to execute on both ends of the floor.
With that said, what I just watched was a FUCKING DISGRACE! NO TEAM is 40 points better than another team in the FINAL FOUR. Especially, when both teams are #2 seeds. We are not talking about a #1 seed facing a #16 seed, or the UCONN women facing a #10 seed. I didn't think it was possible to make it THAT FAR in the tournament and be THAT BAD on both ends of the court in one game. Oklahoma showed me! If shots aren't falling, there is no way you should allow your opponents to shoot 71% from the damn field. NO WAY!
...and TBS...GIVE ME A BREAK! What is the point of continuously going to Jackie Swann, while her son's team is down 30 points? It's one thing to show her once, but show her repeatedly. What were they looking for? Her to pass out?
I hope Syracuse and NC both show up and make tonight redeemable.
