MARCH MADNESS 2010!

Post by langleyparkjoe »

Hey friends, we're a couple days away from no work and watch them play! :lol: I'm thinking maybe this could be our NCAA thread to maybe put your picks up and discuss the MADNESS!!! I love this tournament, ask me next year when they change it to 96 and my answer probably won't be the same. :lol: I think changing it is just horrible. We're talking about the official championship for college basketball and when you open it up to everyone it takes away from the challenge IMO. So what's next, they're going to get rid of the N.I.T.? Like who watches it anyways, true, but sheeeesh though. You'll have "Computer State" vs "Kentucky".. guess who'll win that match up? :lol:

My Sweet 16 Picks
Midwest
Kansas VS. MD
Georgetown VS Ohio St.
West
Syracuse VS. Butler
Pittsburgh VS. Kansas St.
East
Kentucky VS. Wisconsin
New Mexico VS. West Virginia
South
Louisville VS. Utah St.
Notre Dame VS. Villanova

I just used the Sweet 16 as a starting point since the first round has so many dag gone teams in it. Good luck to everyone with their brackets, if your doing it for money I hope you all win! (unless your a cow fan, than I hope you fail miserably)

Sweet 16 has to be one of the most exciting sports events. I do not have favourite teams. I only enjoy the good games. I love the electric atmosphere in the stands.

How about Butler??? :shock:

Who would have thought???

I think Duke will win it all though. I thought Baylor was gonna beat them and ... you know what happened.

How about West Virginia and Stanford? Any chance?

Dude, I reaaaaaaaaaaaaaally want WVA to beat Duke, will they do it.. I'm not sure. I think they're Big East experience will help them since Duke has some big men who can actually play and make outside shots. WVA is used to that playing teams like Syracuse, GT, UConn, Pitt sometimes twice a year. I don't really care about the other game because the winner of the WVA/Duke game I believe will win the whole thing. Just my opinion and obviously I can't pick worth jack.. :lol:

Do not quit your job, brother.

WVA was not even competitive against Duke. Wrong game plan and they just got ran over.

BUT ... how about Butler ???!!! :shock:

Somebody is aleady planning a movie deal about their run !!!

Some comparisons with the older Hoosiers are being drawn now ...

What if they beat ... Naaaaahhh it ain't gonna happen. [-X

or Can it happen ??? :hmm:

The stuff of legend and movies for sure ...

My take? I think that stats and logic shows that Duke will win but my heart points in a different direction. What if? Oh my!

I'm a Terp and until this year I'd have said the same. However, since my daughter is a freshman at Duke I'm working on learning to like them. I have to admit it's a great school for her to go to. I've been very impressed with how well it's run and the students are really great kids. As for learning to root for them, I just keep thinking, "at least it's not UNC..." Actually I own a graphic design business as well, we're just a couple miles from Duke and they gives us lots of business so that helps too. Not enough to pay tuition though...

Just don't pull for them against the Terps...LOL. I have a step son that went to Purdue, so I kind of know the feeling.

BEST game I have seen in a long time.

Butler can hold its head high. The stuff of legend. Keeping the Duke power-house in line until the last basket of the game ... My God ... The stuff of legend, no doubt.

This is why I watch this Tournament. Fantastic.

It was a great game and here in Indy we are glad Butler was so amazing in the tourney run. If Butler would not have had that 6 minute stretch without scoring, and maybe gone after Zebeck when he came back in with the 4 fouls it would have a much different outcome!
