    Tonight there was absolutely nothing I wanted to watch on TV.
    Tuesday wasn't much better so I ended up watching Rick and Marty spend 3 million dollars to
    find a few scraps of wood and some rusty 400 year old piece of iron like they do every week on Oak Island.

    I've never seen such a pathetic display of not finding what you're looking for since 'finding bigfoot' was on TV. :'(

    No sir, no excuse for not having something to watch, might I suggest "Dumb and Dumber" starring Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, you seem like a man who could use a good chuckle.

    It would be ungood if the zags choked. Losing the finals then a sweet 16?

  • MsMorrisineMsMorrisine Posts: 38,580 ✭✭✭✭✭

    But I love a good upset

    Go razorbacks!

    I loved that and the Dumb and dumber sequel also.
    Lloyd pretends to be in a coma for 20 years.

    Harry.. Wouldn't it have still been funny if you only pretended to be in a coma for, like, 10 years.
    Lloyd... Well sure, but not as funny!!

    Got a good laugh just now watching Arkansas take down Gonzaga and remembering how
    goldenage just told us how dominant the Zags were.

  • TabeTabe Posts: 6,359 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Definitely a bad night for Gonzaga. Full credit to Arkansas for the win.

  • Steven59Steven59 Posts: 10,881 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Gonzaga definitely looked like the overrated team they are and Michigan makes Purdue the only remaining Big 10 team left in the tourney tonight .

    Michigan did well this year... despite not being a 15 seed that everyone wants to win

    Whatever happens with Duke next, win or lose, it's been one heck of a final season for coach K, and one heck of a career, and I'm proud of their efforts to make it to the elite eight. That Houston team is pretty darn good, I thought Arizona had a good chance of taking it all the way.

    No, Gonzaga hasn't won a title. It's the one thing missing on their resume.

    For all of the money they are spending from student tuition to buy a title, they are sure screw ups LOL. Can't even make it to the Elite 8 this year!

    Losers to a 4th seed Arkansas LOL :D:o

    U of H whipped that Wildcat ass

    Sampson has done a remarkable job with that program -- i think his first season on the job was ugly, but they've been balling out ever since

    give that man a fat contract extension

    I thought before the tournament started that Kansas was the best team in the country.

    They just bounced my Providence Friars.

    Nova shot 37% against Mich and 28% against Houston and won both in San Antonio. They make all their foul shots

    the NCAA tournament is not the NBA finals. all is takes is one bad shooting night to end your season, and that is precisely what the Coogs had yesterday. except bad is understating things. when you shoot 20 three balls and make one, in no universe do you deserve to win that particular game.

    it's simple, execute or go home. which do you choose?

    Well so much for St Peters - it was fun while it lasted. And one of Nova's starters is done with a torn achilles from the other night if that will make a difference against Kansas.

    This is the final 4 matchups I saw on an internet article. EDIT: Kansas is tough but what a great way to end your career - Coach K winning it all.
    Final Four — Saturday, April 2
    No. 1 Kansas vs. No. 2 Villanova 6:09 p.m. TBS New Orleans, Louisiana Caesars Superdome
    No. 2 Duke vs. No. 8 North Carolina 8:49 p.m. TBS New Orleans, Louisiana Caesars Superdome

    That Duke vs UNC game is going to be intense, UNC beat Duke a few weeks back at Cameron Indoor stadium, ruining coach K's last home game ever, Duke may have some revenge on their minds.
