May I?

Maybe it's because I'm a diehard fan of one of the big boys but I cannot believe the amount of "Too much chalk" talk I'm hearing.  I like a cinderella story as much as the next one of you jokers, but honestly this is my heaven. March is my favorite time of year for one simple reason, AWESOME BASKETBALL.

 

So here we are, March 24th and the NCAA Sweet Sixteen is stacked full to the brim with the big boys. All four 1,2 and 3 seeds made it and two 4 seeds made it, and people are going to complain? The big boys are here to battle and I think this weekend might be one of the best tournament weekends ever. I mean, the lowest seed (Arizona at 12) is a team that has been to four Finals Fours and has won one championship.

 

What more can we ask for than a collection of the undoubtably best fourteen teams in the nation plus two more playing for their championship lives?

Rick Pitino

has always said that he likes the way the NBA’s playoffs work because they ensure that the best and most talented two teams square off for the title…. well I think we should rejoice, the Selection Committee has done their jobs and were are all the beneficiaries.

Hey Handsome Man

is that you and your girlfriend with the misty Golden Gate for background?
I don’t know if that concept was ever used before.
(just kiddin).
Loved the shots you took…especially Pitino with his head in his hands.

I think S.I. got it right

although they somehow had Wake in their Final Four this past week, just look at T-Will’s first cover

Not one of those teams is out…. sit back an marvel at just the talent and names in that picture. If a smile doesn’t cross your face, you’re a lost cause

I'm just sick of hearing the word "chalk"

We get it, you’re hip, you know the lingo, stop undressing me with your eyes.

Know What You Mean

but I’m just “tryin to stay within myself,” so maybe I “can go to the next level.”
