Title: March Madness 2013

It's only about a month away believe it or not,March Madness. ESPN has a projected bracket at this website.                                                 http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology     

On this topic we can talk about who you think is left out that should be in, your favorites to win it all, who you think is overrated, and anything else that has to deal with college basketball.

I didn't know Joe Lunardi had a sense of humor towards Ohio State.

I'm shocked that Miami was left off this list.

If I had any reservations about scheduling a road meet on Final Four weekend, they went crashing into a goal support in Gainesville, Fla. on Tuesday night.

If you are referring to Miami (FL), they are the No. 1 seed in the South in his projected brackets.

I was referring to the poll.  I would have expected them to be projected to be a 1 or 2 seed.

When the poll was created, they were either out of the rankings or still #18.

In retrospect, Gonzaga had no business being on such a poll.

Now, I don't know which way to go.  Do I root against the Whining Weasels of Arrogant Asshole?  Or do I root for Michigan to be the Big Ten standard bearer and make Charles Barkley eat his words?  ARRRRRRGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!  :banghead:  X-(  :hmm:

Two words: "Go Blue."

(I'll be watching the two-hour "Dallas" special.)

Love it! I didn't really like Pitino when he coached UK.

You can also root against the Louisville women's team in their final against UConn tomorrow evening.  (Ugh -- I'd rooted for both of those teams' opponents last night, not sure what I'll do tomorrow evening other than maybe my taxes.)

Actually, I hope Louisville's women do win the national championship. Their coach isn't named Pitino.  :bigass:

Hm, that reminds me - for the first time in my life, I have a bracket in the 99th percentile! :D I'll probably lose that distinction if my favorite team wins, though, as I have Louisville dominating Michigan in the final game.

What has this experience taught me? Get the final two teams right, and your brackets will always be happy. Makes up for missing most of two entire regions.
