MARCH MADNESS, that is. :D

SEC tournament just kicked off a few hours ago, and Georgia is trouncing Auburn. Why do I care about the SEC? UK, stoopid! [img]graemlins/whackya.gif[/img] (for those who don't know, I will lose my rights to return to KY and visit my family if my blood ceases to bleed blue -- and it ain't just the family that will ban me, it's a state law, KRS- something or other).

So, will UK beat Miss St. in the tourney and secure the #1 seed in its division, securing an easier road to the final four? Or, will it lose and face the hard road as the #2 seed? Will St. Josephs manage to keep its perfect record? How will Stanford stack up this year? Will the fact that the bracketologists finally decided to give Gonzaga its due with a higher ranking bode well or ill for the Zags? Will Duke piss me off again?

These and at least 64 other questions will be answered this month. I, for one, can't wait.

Rock on Timber! UK basketball is one of the great legacies og the blue grass state. I'm sure Ilander will agree with me... ;)

Well St. Joe's was trounced this afternoon by Xavier...

WOW [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]

St. Joe may lose No. 1 seed. Who can argue with Dickie Vitale, BAY-BEEEEE????

Today's Scoreboard.

Come on you basket-heads, comment!! Surely IWF is not so lost to the Euros that only soccer and cricket get posts!!! Show those namby-pamby other-side-of-the-pond'ers what we're made of, damn you!!!!

I didn't even know we were in it! Nevermind - Let's go UK!

I could see the opening that TL left from post 1 - the only mystery was whether you would read it and respond :D .

Horrid blunder for St Joes - they have been solid all year ut that perfomance was pathetic. I will just sit back hoping for an early Duke exit (I'm with you on that one TL ;) ).

*scratches his head with puzzled look on his face*

What's he on about?? :confused:

GO MSU!!! Oh wait, they're a tiny team from Montana who made it into the 64 once, only to be eliminated....

Now, why on earth is everybody so hard on duke?!?! :D

A-HA!! Donut is the first biscuit to fall into my clever UK trap. Mwuahahaha. [img]graemlins/evilhaha.gif[/img]

Ryaldin, everone is hard on Duke because this horrible little girly-boy named Christian Laetner once went to school there. He's eeeeeevil I tell you, eeeeevil.

We also don't like seeing them and their prissy psuedo-ivy ways year after year after year -- it's like a tea and scones party that invaded North Carolina, a place normally home to good, honest, bar-fightin' rednecks.

Plus, ain't none of us buying the fact that we're supposed to pronounce Coach K's name as "Shashevsky" -- it's either too fancy, or just ignernt, and we ain't got time for neither. ;)
