seton hall's inability to get an offensive rebound is about to destroy my ~~oakland~~ DC bracket.

omg pacific.

― teeny (teeny), Thursday, 16 March 2006 19:45 (eighteen years ago) link

I had Duke, UConn, Gonzaga (uhh) and BC. BC, you assholes.

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Thursday, 16 March 2006 19:59 (eighteen years ago) link

I have kansas, conn, duke and villa. still hope for bc now!

― teeny (teeny), Thursday, 16 March 2006 20:09 (eighteen years ago) link

UConn, Duke, Ohio State, Gonzaga

too may people fell in love with BC, I think. but I sure as heck want them to win here. this BC/Pacific game is unreal. I'm nearly 0-3 on the day. WTF?

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Thursday, 16 March 2006 20:10 (eighteen years ago) link

as soon as I that tho, BC just takes over. ahhh, can breathe easy..

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Thursday, 16 March 2006 20:15 (eighteen years ago) link

why is it that when a game involving an SEC team comes on, i lose all interest in the tournament?

― my name is john. i reside in chicago. (frankE), Thursday, 16 March 2006 20:24 (eighteen years ago) link

3-0!

― mookiepr00f, Thursday, 16 March 2006 20:34 (eighteen years ago) link

Hurray Bama, I might pull even today.

i'm going to the sweet sixteen games in atlanta next thursday - i'll be the dude booing the fuck out of duke.

― j blount (papa la bas), Thursday, 16 March 2006 21:24 (eighteen years ago) link

i have Bama too but aaaarggh the local CBS station switched to Tennessee-Winthrop (which is fine -- great game!) after Bama took control in the first half, but now stupid CBS Sportsline won't let me watch the Bama/Marquette game online because "my local affiliate is carrying it." dumbasses.

Best be careful, Dick Vitale's posse will take you out.

holy shit Tennessee!! impossibel shot!!

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Thursday, 16 March 2006 22:22 (eighteen years ago) link

jesus, I haven't even been paying attention to Bama and now they're DOWN?!?

Jerry McNamara: Overrated or REALLY Overrated?

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Friday, 17 March 2006 04:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh, Iowa. The non-bracket-game-playing me loves that Texas has an easier road to the elite 8, but the one that anticipated Texas losing to Iowa is totally fucked over.

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Friday, 17 March 2006 19:41 (eighteen years ago) link

kansas's loss is a direct result of me putting them in my final four; a mizzou grad should know better. :( Oh well, I'll enjoy my one shining moment atop the fantasy rankings.

― teeny (teeny), Saturday, 18 March 2006 15:24 (eighteen years ago) link

All my elite eight teams are still alive, which is all you can ask.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Saturday, 18 March 2006 22:21 (eighteen years ago) link

not the case here (thx GEORGE MASON)

― j blount (papa la bas), Saturday, 18 March 2006 22:26 (eighteen years ago) link

6 of 8, fuck you Iowa and Okla-homo.

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Sunday, 19 March 2006 05:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Okla-homo

Sub-Bayless at best.

― David R. (popshots75`), Sunday, 19 March 2006 08:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I would have accepted Joke-lahoma.

It should be noted that among the two overall leaders, one is named "Jay Hawks? More Like Gay Hawks."

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Sunday, 19 March 2006 17:49 (eighteen years ago) link

Okla-pomo

― j blount (papa la bas), Sunday, 19 March 2006 20:57 (eighteen years ago) link

more like sub-Ade-Langston

― Haikunym (Haikunym), Sunday, 19 March 2006 21:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Well I'm down to 6 of 8 since that post. Ohio State and North Carolina dropped me into mediocrity.

But I still have all my final four teams!

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Monday, 20 March 2006 08:30 (eighteen years ago) link

STOKED FOR GEORGE MASON-WICHITA STATE!

― j blount (papa la bas), Monday, 20 March 2006 15:51 (eighteen years ago) link

I didn't put George Mason on my bracket because I thought he had perished bravely by flying that nuclear weapon into the desert in Season 2 har har

DAMN IT!

MICHIGAN VS. NOTRE DAME IN THE NIT -- I GOT YOUR INSANITY RIGHT HERE!!! GREAT GAME!

Ding dong Duke is dead!!! Duke is dead!!

whoopee! and i picked it!

My bracket says boooo, but I say yaayyy.

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Friday, 24 March 2006 03:48 (eighteen years ago) link

the only tragedy of depantsing of duke is that i didn't get to see it.

― my name is john. i reside in chicago. (frankE), Friday, 24 March 2006 03:49 (eighteen years ago) link

I missed picking the Duke bounce correctly by one round. Dagnabit.

― David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 24 March 2006 04:59 (eighteen years ago) link

unbelievable!

― my name is john. i reside in chicago. (frankE), Friday, 24 March 2006 05:29 (eighteen years ago) link

we left the texas-wvu game at halftime :(

― j blount (papa la bas), Friday, 24 March 2006 07:30 (eighteen years ago) link

partly at my instigation too ("this game's OVER - we can make it back to athens well before last call - yall wanna split?"). long ride home. :( :( :(

― j blount (papa la bas), Friday, 24 March 2006 07:33 (eighteen years ago) link

well at least your bracket's great

― Sym Sym (sym), Friday, 24 March 2006 07:42 (eighteen years ago) link

That was the awesomest day of basketball.

All my picks were right today!

What the balls, everyone's brackets just exploded.

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Sunday, 26 March 2006 21:12 (eighteen years ago) link

simply one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my life

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Sunday, 26 March 2006 21:13 (eighteen years ago) link

How many games this weekend have been decided within three points and/or have gone to overtime? All of them??

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Sunday, 26 March 2006 21:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Clearly, 2006 is "Best Tournament Ever" already. What's #2?

i think it's great mike davis was able to find a job with enterprise rent-a-car so quickly.

I seriously don't remember the last time I've been as excited about a basketball game since that George Mason-UConn match. Gotta admit that seeing Jim Calhoun's pouty face at the end made it all worthwhile.

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Sunday, 26 March 2006 23:47 (eighteen years ago) link

according to wikipedia it's been 31 years since there hasn't been a team from the Big Ten, Big East, Big 8/12 or ACC in the final four (though syracuse was in that year as an independent)

― my name is john. i reside in chicago. (frankE), Monday, 27 March 2006 00:59 (eighteen years ago) link

so I'm gonna win this here pickem tournament if GMU can win one more. Otherwise, pleasant pains is going to win with his genius florida pick.

― Sym Sym (sym), Monday, 27 March 2006 03:03 (eighteen years ago) link

check this shit out ... an actual real bracket where someone had GMU (and LSU and yoocla too!!)

I'd almost say 2005 is #2. So many OTs and 2OTs.

As much as I hate Florida (ahem Noah), it's good to see 2 SEC teams in the Final Four.

GMU has been amazing and really deserves to make some history.

During the Stanfurd/LSU women's game, there was an NCAA commercial with a blonde with a striking resemblence to Kirsten Dunst. I didn't catch her name -- anyone know who I'm talking about?

― c(''c) (Leee), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 02:56 (eighteen years ago) link

No more George Mason. It was too bad, too, they were really hanging in there until Humphries started making threes in his sleep in the second half. From then on, they really came down to earth and it was as if the last few weekends never happened. Still, one of the more improbable sports stories in a while.

― Pwnjabi MC (Matt Chesnut), Sunday, 2 April 2006 00:24 (eighteen years ago) link

it needs to be said: congratulations to the gutty young ucla bruins for putting the biggest final four asswhipping in recent memory on lsu last night. so beautiful.

Can we congratulate the Bruins for allowing Florida to whup on them like they whupped on LSU? Or should we just start a pool to buy Noah some hair conditioner?

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 12:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Or maybe Steve Lavin can donate some pomade.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 12:15 (eighteen years ago) link

all season i was saying 'o you don't have to worry about florida, they're not for real' and then of course they just roll thru the whole tourny. congrats gators.

Fuck this shit. Is anybody consistently good year-over-year at picking these fuckers or is it all pretty much random?
