  1. The tournament has been fine. It’s definitely not the best but I feel comfortable saying it’s not the worst tourney. I don’t particularly care that it’s all 1 seeds in the FF. If this starts becoming more routine, then sure. But just last year a 4 and an 11 made the FF, and 8 double digit seeds won first round games. And 2023 we had a FF with teams seeded 4, 5, 5 and 9, a 15 seed made the S16 and a 16 seed won a game. Maybe this year is a sign of things to come but it might also just be a blip. Need to give it a couple more years to find out.
  2. Was 14-1 before the tournament that all four 1 seeds would be in the FF.
  3. That he was actually playing on the Cubs? Maybe doing his best Rizzo impression?
  4. Last time we had a pretty much chalk EE (2019) we had a pretty awesome EE round and FF. Let's have that again then.
  5. Auburn looks terrible. So many careless turnovers and sloppy plays. EDIT: This post appears to be aging poorly.
  6. The good: the Cubs scored a run! The bad: they had 2nd and 3rd with no out and couldn't score.
  7. Yeah, that’s a situation where you have to know beforehand that one of the fastest guys in the league is on first and just not even entertain going to second under almost any circumstance.
  8. White Sox about to be over .500 for the first time since Opening Day 2023.
  9. Didn’t realize today was Opening Day until a friend texted me this morning. I guess I’d heard and talked about the A’s home opener being against the Cubs that I assumed that was Opening Day.
  10. They also haven’t had a player hit 30 HRs in a season since Bonds in 2004. Belt hit 29 in 2021 but got hurt and only played 97 games.
  11. Decent chance Juju Watkins just blew her knee out.
  12. SEC with 7 teams in the S16, breaking the record of the ACC in 2016.
  13. I was confused for a few seconds looking at the schedule as I was trying to figure out what the second SEC-Big 10 matchup was besides Michigan-A&M. Then I remembered that UCLA is in the Big 10 now.
  14. First time since 2017 that the top-4 seeds went 16-0 in the first round.
  15. Let’s see if they can get over a point per minute for the full game.
  16. Clemson has 11 points, is 1-14 from 3 and has 10 turnovers with 1 minute left in the half.
  17. To be fair on the Dodgers part, he only started a playoff game because the Dodgers had multiple starters get hurt and Urias got arrested for domestic violence.
  18. It's 11 p.m. local time in Tennessee and they just started the second half of an SEC tournament game. As if that wasn't bad enough, it's after midnight in New York and they're still playing a Big East tournament game. Have these things always run this late and I don't remember it?
  19. The Sun Belt has the weirdest tournament format I’ve seen. There are 14 teams but only 4 teams play each round. So this year, for example, Marshall was the 11 seed so they played in the first round. They won 4 games before finally losing their fifth game, which was somehow only the quarterfinals. EDIT: Apparently the Marshall thing was on the women’s side but the bracket is the same.
  20. No idea so I'll guess OleMissCub.
