ICH Final Four Picks

Sports No Comment

Finalfourdist

At least someone picked each of the Final Four participants, meaning one person selected Louisville. Kentucky was the favorite at the start and they look to have a path to the title. Ohio State was the only one of the four to not be picked to win the title. Likely due to the Penn State leanings of many of the participants. I made the bold pick of Missouri to win it all, so I was done real quick.

Well Done Coach

Sports No Comment

The Xavier/Cincy fight with post game comments. Watch to the end to see the Cincy coach.

It was easy to be appalled by the Cincy players during the brawl. When I saw it the ESPN anchor said suspensions. Suspensions? One or two of them should be off the team. Then the Cincy coach, Mick Cronin. Wow. Exactly what he should have said. Made the players take off the jerseys and will decide who should get to put it back on. Jump to around 3:20 if you want to see the coach.

I assume no Cincy players spoke to the media after the game, or else ESPN would have shown it. I doubt the coach would have let them. I don’t think the Xavier players should have been out there either. I didn’t think they were wrong talking about being thugs and standing up for themselves, but maybe give it a little time before letting the players speak.

Shocking: Tennessee fires Bruce Pearl

At least that’s the rumor from sources on ESPN.

I said he got fired during the Michigan game on Friday. I tried to pinpoint the general area that it happened during the game …

Oregon, what have you done to your court?

Sports No Comment

I enjoy Oregon’s crazy uniform changes. Yes, many of them are really awful (like those neon socks in the BCS Championship), but I like that they try and mix it up. You aren’t going to find something new if you don’t try.

On the other hand, I saw an Oregon basketball game on TV the other night and I thought there was something wrong with my TV. The image here looks ridiculous, and it was just as ridiculous looking on TV.

Oregon’s crazy new basketball floor is quintessentially Oregon – The Dagger – NCAAB  – Yahoo! Sports.

One Shining Moment 09

Mike, Sports No Comment

I didn’t watch the championship. I watched the entire tourney up to the last game. My bracket had been done for a while. I was pulling for Michigan St but it wasn’t close from the start. I checked in and saw it was a 20 point game and went to bed. I’ve stayed up in the past just to see One Shining Moment, but I wouldn’t of made it. So here it is, in its web glory.

Obama Fills Out His Brackets

Sports No Comment

I think Obama knows more than me about college basketball this year. My question is, what happens when everything goes just like this? Don’t you have to support our president and throw the game if he didn’t pick you?
