    They said Kansas was the best team left, and look how Oregon handled them. I am hoping the same happens.

    I think I would prefer an Oregon/South Carolina final....but is Gonzo gets in that is OK too. (Father-in-law was a big Gamecock fan)

    And, oh, yea....fuck a bunch of NC.

    I am actually not dead last?

    Not even counting the one who did not fill out their bracket?

    Congrats, mjp... damn near lapped the field. I was happy to do my part to help you do so...

    Disappointing game... came away feeling like the Zags lost rather than the Heels won...

    The Indians on the other hand... flipped to ESPN during breaks. First check we're down 5-3. Second we tied 5-5 and Miller is in. Third still 5-5 and we're batting... decided to hand and see if we could post one... we posted 3... and it was Allen time. Stayed there for the finish.

    Gritty team... weird to see Napier on the Rangers... and Encarnacion(?) with us, but I think I can get used to the changes.

    And a big, "Welcome back" to Brantly...

    Well thanks and it was a good and exciting NC game with a ton of lead changes! But did the best team win?

    Both were #1 seeds although I feel the Zags had an easier bracket to get out of BUT we're a very good team extremely tough on defense....and had the 7' tall Polish Hammer. UNC had playoff experience maybe the deciding factor for me plus an overall taller, tougher team with plenty of shooters.

    If Gonzaga won would we say that the better team won, probably -but- UNC in their record 20th Finals did win so I guess we can accept that unless you really liked and wanted a new fresh underdog in their 1st Final ever to win.

    So congratulations to UNC....especially if you picked them to win -and- got a big scare all game!

    So who's the favorite in 2018? Well we have 11 months to think about that. March Madness one shining moment.

    Had he showed up.

    The only shot he made that I can recall was the scramble fed lunge that he did not have time to think about. Maybe he was leg weary from the start, but what a disappointing showing. I wondered why, as good as his free-throw stroke looked most of the time, he never took a 12 footer?
