  1. For some reason Illinois was already in prior to this according to, well, everyone. But now I'd say you can't keep them out.
  2. So Kansas State goes to Oklahoma City pod then right? That's the only one I think is a reasonable assumption off the top of my head.
  3. Maybe Hinrich's goofy ass can drop some cheap shot on somebody the way he did to Rondo last year. You're the best troll in the world! Seriously, why are posts like these allowed to be made? It's textbook BS that we wouldn't take from a Cardinal fan in reference to the Cubs.
  4. Ok, I'm sure Illinois is a fine team and all (I haven't watched much of them), but I've had the game on 5 minutes and 75 percent of Steve Lavin's comments are basically "Please, committee, for the love of God, put Illinois in".
  5. Someone on the Bulls needs to lay someone the [expletive] out. I'm sick and tired of people bashing Rose into the ground with impunity.
  6. Once in a very great while, being a sports fan can be fun. The last few weeks are one of those times. Had to play a minute straight of defense at the end because of a totally garbage jump ball call - and they did it. Love this team. On to the semis. Let's see what West Virginia's got.
  7. Memphis is out for sure. I had them out already.
  8. I still think UTEP deserves one Me too.
  9. I think WVU would take Duke's 1 seed if it came to that, but there's certainly an argument to be made for taking Cuse's.
  10. Gene Cross fired at Toledo after 2 horrible years. Onuaku just went down grabbing his knee in the Syr/Gtown game. Might be bad.
  11. If Georgetown can finish this upset, how is Syracuse's shot at a 1 seed affected, if at all?
  12. I endorse that 1-seed placement. Obviously it could change pending conference tourney results.
  13. That was a very strange day. I was living with an IU fan and a Purdue fan at the time and to see both of their teams which had dominated so much attention during hoops season flame out spectacularly in the league tournament was surreal.
  14. Sosa has to be like a 7th year senior.
  15. And it would be 3 times in 7 years. And the reason it happens is because ND never schedules anybody out of conference and still manages to lose a game to some horrible team in noncon every year. (In '05 and this year they added Rutgers losses in conference for good measure) Shh!!! Let him think that the world is out to get poor ND. Yes, that is what I said. I presented factual evidence. (6 years, not 7. 03-04 to 09-10 is 6 calendar years. Semantics, I guess.) What you draw from it is your own business. ND basketball has been good for 1 month in the last 2 years and I'm already managing to piss people off. God forbid the football team ever stop sucking, I guess. Where do you get six years from? 03-04 and 04-05 they missed out with winning records, 05-06 they were sub-.500, 06-07 and 07-08 they made the tourney and 08-09 they were sub-.500. This year, 09-10, had they missed would have been the third time they missed in seven seasons. 6 years, 7 seasons. I was trying to further emphasize the point and shouldn't have. Stupid idea.
  16. Yes, I know. Semantics. Whatever. And you don't have to tell me about the non-con schedule. You can look through this thread and probably find at least 10 posts containing my moaning about it. It drives me nuts. Thankfully it won't keep the Irish out.

  18. I could have easily seen Notre Dame missing the field if they had lost that game. Me too, because I'm sure it would've been a nice historical boon to be the first team in the 64-team era to be left out after posting winning power-conference records 3 times within 6 years. But no matter. With losses to Loyola Marymount, Northwestern, Rutgers, Cincinnati and St. John's. They have an elite offense. But their defense is the 176th most efficient according to Pomeroy. I'd love to see what Pomeroy has ND's defense rated as the last 5 games, because that team is a hell of a lot different than the one that started the year or even the one that was playing a month ago.

  20. Now THAT was nice. 20 and 10 for Gody in just 25 minutes, staying within the offense, the entire team handling Seton Hall's press pretty well. Now we have a quarterfinal draw against a team we blitzed two weeks ago. I wonder if Doug Gottlieb still thinks we are on the bubble.
  21. I didn't say Hendry wasn't necessarily a good guy. But it would be very easy for him to simply say he is done talking about Milton Bradley as he is not relevant to the current Cubs team anymore and that he wouldn't answer any further questions about it. And he's not only not doing it, he's keeping Bradley in the headlines by responding to every mindless accusation Bradley is throwing at him. Milton can't help that he's insane. Hendry can help whether he talks about it.
  22. Marquette's off the bubble now for sure, but barely. Geez.
  23. I don't know why Marquette's even being mentioned near the bubble in the first place (they're a lock), but this kind of performance isn't helping them.
  24. jim hendry could also help things out by shutting the [expletive] up. why can't he say "the milton bradley chapter is closed and he's no longer a member of the organization; i don't see any reason to respond to his latest charges." This. I'm sick and damn tired of hearing Hendry blab. Of course, he has a vested interest - the more he pisses and moans about Bradley, the less attention gets put on his underachieving, overpaid team.
  25. Browns now exploring a possible Brady Quinn trade according to Adam Schefter. Looks like they want to blow it up and start over.
