NCAA tourney

Some surprises. Some great games. Especially Xavier vs. Purdue. I don't have a favorite but that kid named Lavender from Xavier really put on a show.
I don't know how tall he is but he's probably too short to get a pro spot. It's a shame because he's got game. Not so many points although he can shoot but his assists are just plain elegant and look impossible.
Drew Lavender. He had 9 assists and 16 points. 8-8 free throws.
He's not the star even but the most entertaining player I've seen for a while.

I haven't been paying close attension so far. If Washington State University does well I will make more of an effort to watch them. Since my son has gotten older and is working I don't have my sports watching buddy.

Uconn!! Man, what an upset.


Duke squeeked out a nailbiter the other day, but their luck ran out yesterday...shaping up to be an interesting tourn. so far.

I'll bet everybody's office pools are shot already.

ESPN said that out of their entries they had 0 perfect after the first round. I think that's out of 2 million or so.

a couple cliches

On any given day


That's why they play the games





You just never know, whch is why this time of year is so interesting. I'm a big Duke fan, so I'm a little disappointed.

Dang, I was hoping they would show the UNC game. A friend of mine that is his team and it would be good if they could play Washington State.

More upsets. My Louisville team has stomped both it's opponents so far. The first Boise State was not bad. Then they stomped Oklahoma a few minutes ago. Western Ky won over San Diego.
UK was pitiful losing to Villanova. Or somebody.
But all in all we aren't doing bad.
