Absolutely and it the same story every year...

I tell you, I was a little bummed on the first weekend, my bracket was completely shot, I lost two of my Final Four Picks and of course Michigan State lost in the first round... but it doesnt take long to get someone back in it!

I'll tell you I'm not that good at picking after the first round...That being said I guess this is the only time someone should get excited about losing. I have Duke winning, but I'm rooting for Arizona.

Game over for both Duke and Wisc. Arizona is just hitting everything.

Kansas should have no problem winning it all now.

What a great scene... Singler and Nolan Smith, two great great college players, get their last call to the bench and Derrick Williams asks the crowd to cheer louder... classy, so classy...

Kansas is not a great team. Capable of winning for sure but there are not overwhelmingly good so that they can just run through the rest of the Tourney...

Jalen Rose would agree with you... :lol:

Maaaan listning to Charles "Let me tell you somethin Kenny" Barkely do commentary on a game makes my head hurt. He just spits a bunch of nonsensical bs until eventually he wanders his way into a point. lol It's like Sarah Palin became a Sportscaster... smdh

We've already seen that any team can win any given game...no doubt about that. Kansas is the deepest and most talented team left though IMO (OSU is close though).

The Wisco game is great...they really came back.

I really hope we are able to draft Jimmer. Last night was the first night I saw him play because I didn't believe the hype, but I really think he could be an effective NBA player.
