Dude come on call me. I need friends. Since you know so much about my lifting progress and also since you know full well that I define my worth as a human being on such said progress Id appreciate it if youd refrain from such harsh comments or I will tell my mother. You should also bear in mind that I consider you to be the full authority on the judgement of my writing. I know that the facts of which I speak are "nonsense" but please man, its all I have. Maybe all the truthfullness of my wording is delusional. All I know is that I watch games and Sportscenter on TV and compare it to your earlier statements and predictions. Maybe Im being lied to through the TV and everything youve said is right. Actually, yeah, I bet that is the case. Im sorry dude. Where have I gotten off on calling you on your inconsitencies? I must be a moron. Thanx dude. Now I realize that all the events that have unfolded before our eyes have been a hoax. Everything that you have said earlier is actually correct.


Sorry for believing the accuracy of ESPN. I bet that Ill aint even in the final four.

Who cares who has the toughest division? The best team is the best team. Champions find a way to win no matter what, losers make excuses. Plain and simple. Everyone knows going in it is one loss and you're out. A great team will peak during the tournament and, hopefully, in the final game.

Having said that, I hope Michigan State wins just cause they are the cinderella, but the best game will be UNC vs Illinois and that should put an end to all of the bickering.

Ive never cared a lick about who has the best conference. I just think its funny that after all the crap people gave them that they had the most sucess in the tourney. I care about my team and to be honest I hate every other team in the Big 10. Its almost like someone saying, "oh yeah you might live in the most sucessful country (US) but my continent (Europe) is way better overall, therefore the US must really suck, or something like that.

Eh, dont mind Red, he has a Napolean complex. I have to admit, the dude has picked some losing teams for sure in his bracket. He did better than Cold Iron though... sorry CI, the Canadians that put up their brackets didnt look so hot this year.

Anyways, its Illinois and UNC on Monday. Just what I had in my bracket. If it goes to UNC I win, but theres no money in our group, just bragging rights. If Illinois wins, I'm done, but I'll be happy in knowing that a team from my State won Or what used to be my state

Great attitude man, nothin wrong with it.

About the game, I have no doubt that Ill is capable of beating NC, theyve pounded teams of maybe not the same of but of close caliber. Now will they beat them? Im not so sure, well see.

Brilliant game thus far, UNC was up bug, but the Illini are mounting a charge...

Was definitely a great game... Illinois was always just close enough to smell it, but couldnt quite pull it off. Regardless, if they'd played in the 2nd like they had in the first, they would have pretty much destroyed North Carolina. Ah well, my bracket won.

Bittersweet...

FUCK.



Go Cubs.

I think you have that the other way around. They shot 29% in the first half. At least they made it a good game.

Er yeah, got that backwards.

good final. Now M.Williams can declare and make the draft deeper

and to cap the tourney off, WOW ..my brackets were c-r-a-p this yr

I finished 18th in my pool out of 96.

That's alright

I did shit. But I chose NC to win

You and me both!

I actually tied for the most games correctly picked, but that damn weighted measure shit for the later rounds killed me. I guess my lucky guesses on first and second round upsets didn't help all that much.

Yeah, the only reason I won was that North Carolina pulled it out. If Illinois had won I would have lost by 3 points or something.

Ah well, I rooted for the Illini the whole night (and talked trash to the UNC crowd). Unfortunately I dont think there is going to be a repeat next year, Illinois is losing some good players I think... while UNC is probably going to keep most of theirs from what I know.

Either way, it was an interesting game... with Illinois falling behind so early, then coming back and almost taking it.
