As is Andrew Wiggins, which shouldn't be a shock to anyone.

I just can't get excited for Opening Day this year. WTF is wrong with me? Oh wait, Fred is back!! BRING ON OPENING DAY!!!

For those that didn't see the Toews hit: http://d3j5vwomefv46c.cloudfront.net/photos/large/846299540.gif?1396227866

Regardless it was a stacked bracket. An undefeated team, the most talented team in the country (arguably), last years champs with much of the same roster, and then 2 of the 3 best offenses in the country, one being last years runner up and the other having one of the 2-3 best players in the country in Duke.

(To newusername)UM Hoops posted a story full of quotes from Glenn and it made it pretty apparent that he's not coming back. He was saying stuff about how he questioned his decision to come back because he thought he was promised that he'd play the 3 and allowed to show off his abilities there, then Mitch went down and he was a 4 again. Then he said something about how he's glad UM was making a tourney run so he could give back to the fans "one more time". He's going pro. Nik would be stupid not to go pro as a projected mid-1st. Especially after seeing how McGary and Robinsons stock dropped after returning. He's gone. That leaves Mitch. I think he's gone. Since he played prep ball he's the age of a Junior this year. Will be 23 as a rookie. I can't see how another year helps his draft stock at all. Especially if he doesn't come back and dominate. It's too risky. Obviously a risk going pro after basically missing basically the entire season and being a big man with back issues but I think he's gone. Michigan has a top 40 wing coming in and redshirted a top 80 player this year (Donnal) so I'm hoping a core of Walton, Levert, Irvin, Chatman and Donnal is good enough to make the tourney. I think it is, especially with Beilein but we will see. MSU is gonna have a down year next year but I think they make the tourney.

Yeah, they are definitely clicking at the right time. Kudos to them and calipari. And as much as I hated watching UK win, it was sorta fun watching michigan on the business end of a last second three this year. Yeah. Understand that from a Kansas fan. I cheer for the B1G in the tourney, so I was hoping for Michigan. I have to admit though after MSU lost, I wasn't in the mood from hearing from Michigan fans if they won. Kentucky actually made as many 3s as Michigan did with several less shots Michigan has done two things excellent all year, winning close games and out shooting their weaknesses in rebounding and defense. Welp, UM got a taste of their own medicine as they finally lost a close game and they lost because of lights out 3 point shooting. Obviously it was a bit heartbreaking but I'm over it already. Great season that exceeded all my expectations after McGary was lost. Was looking forward to Bucky though. Oh well.

This season is turning into a train wreck.

Good to know we have Bucky waiting if we can get past Kentucky

I can't believe they called an offensive foul when a team trailing by one is going for the winning score with under 10 seconds left.

Where is he anyways? I saw him posting on Facebook a week or two ago

You guys remember individual games from last year? All I remember is a blur of bullpen blowups and Castro groundouts.

yeah, pretty much they missed a kick ball for [expletive]'s sake Wouldn't it have been a blocking foul if it wasn't a charge? I'm at the game and they didn't show a good replay.

Big Z held my favorite Cub belt for several years his downfall was spectacular. Circa 2006 him and Andres Nocioni were my 2 favorite Chicago athletes. I need to make better choices in life.

Pretty good WR out there: Weird because reportedly there was interest from other teams in trading for him but the Eagles decided to cut him outright and take on his $6m cap hit. There's something missing here...

Apparently he talked with Chip Kelly and all is well now. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000336591/article/desean-jackson-tweets-he-spoke-with-chip-kelly Guess that has changed...

Man, I don't think I have a clear favorite. If there was WAR like statistic that measured my cumulative like of a player over a period of time, Sosa would win for his performance from 1996-2003. But I don't think he'd be in my top 3 anymore. Grace was awesome, but I was an innocent early teenager during his main years as a Cub so I didn't appreciate his partying and slump busting ways, and when I was old enough to Sosa overshadowed him. Loved Ryno, he is a contender but not quite. 11 year old umfan was pissed he retired, and then he sucked when i was more impressionable. Plus he didnt have the personality. Kerry Wood might be a my choice. Obviously never lived up to the potential but his 1998 season was the stuff of legends for a 15 year old, the love was cemented for his performance down the stretch of 2003 and the NLDS that year, and then it grew when he kept coming back from stupid injuries and kept finding new roles to help the team, then retired in a classy way. He's always seemed like a cool dude and has embraced Chicago as his home and has been active in the community. Aramis was just consistently awesome, and a sort of overshadowed star during his peak years. Quiet dude, but he had some clutch hits for us and was the centerpiece of 2 of my 3 favorite Cubs memories since 2000, the Grand Slam in the NLCS and the GW HR against the Brewers in 2007. Choosing between Kerry and Aramis. I'll choose Aramis because it would piss Kaplan off and that's always fun.

Strange, I am not amused at all.

Hawks are 13-10-7 in their last 30 games. Yeesh

No doubt, I've been watching Dayton all year. I'm just saying their runs are similar

They're going to need that confidence if they have any shot of beating Florida/UCLA Dayton's run is a lot like George Mason's in 2006. Both 11 seeds. Both beat a Big Ten powerhouse in the first round (MSU vs. OSU), both beat a basketball blue blood in the 2nd round (UNC vs. Syracuse), both beat a lower seeded team fellow cinderella (sort of) in the 3rd round (7 seed Wichita St vs. 10 Stanford). If Florida wins, both would face the top overall seed in the tournament that no one thinks will lose to an inferior team (UConn vs. Florida - fake edit UConn was #2 overall seed).

We need Kane back

See I told you our chemistry equation works, we said the Cubs have the worst chemistry in baseball and they finished in last.

Well that wasn't a fun thing to open at work
