Anyone planning to chat today? I'm at work with no TV so I'll be watching the box score update, while pretending to work on some Excel Spreadsheet or Word document....

It's 11:45 and I can't stand it anymore, especially since Varnish Zone County stopped paying me for the week at 11:30. :9f:

Len and Reggie Miller are arguing over the dreaded elbow call on Doug McDermott.

They are making the Rev Lawgrad say words he couldn't say in the pulpit. I think he sees why I am always fussing about Elmore now. :9f:

I am assuming that we will have Elmore for Creighton. I hope it is for the last time this season. (It will be for Creighton.)

Observation #2: why the Hell is Villanova in this tournament instead of either Virginia or Maryland?
If bad losses are what got you left out, 'Nova lost 12 in the reg season with farts against Providence twice and COLUMBIA. That's right! I said damned COLUMBIA!
COLUMBIA! (QFE)
It kinda blows a giant hole in Jay Bilas' theory from the selection show last Sunday night.

Ask Aleva. He's a big shot on the committee, bless his heart.

You know Jay's theory was it was not who you won against, but who you lost to that carried the most weight with the committee. Wow! Or, ughh...duh! And the holes had to dive on a guy's back and bloody his eye to get him out to help 'em win.

Oh well. It did improve the conference record. :twitch: :9f:

Look anytime you want, but Western KY is up a point on Kansas with short time remaining in the first half.

My bracket is in total shambles. But my final four is still intact. And of course, so is my champion. :duke: :happy-bouncyblue:

Duke - Creighton tip-off is scheduled for 9:40 pm. That SUCKS!!! Doesn't the NCAA/CBS realize people have to go to work on Monday? A West Regional game should be in that time slot. Yes, I am whining and I am going to continue to whine all day today and tomorrow. The NCAA/CBS SUCK!!!

Wow. I will actually be able to watch. Tomorrow we are going to Richmond for my spring conference, and I was afraid I wouldn't get to see any of the game. It's happened before when I was driving while we were playing and getting phone updates.

That being said, 9:40p is an absolutely sucky time for us to be playing. Bob is entirely right; 9:40 games should be reserved for games in San Jose or Seattle. :9f:

Sleeping is one of the easiest things I can do. I will be certain to have a good long nap tomorrow afternoon that will probably be made even easier due to the weather front heading into the area.

sucks to no end. But remember, they are providing us the service that we need.

Of course I'm only here to provide the Phillistine perspective, but it's awfully tough to win against any team that starts a guy named Cadougan. :D
