    Had an idiot (woman, of course) co-worker this morning blabbing about how she thought this guy must've been mentally handicapped to give that answer. I said, "No, he was being sarcastic. Are you familiar with Greg Popovich?" She still swore up and down that the Baylor player was truly stupid.

    He got asked a stupid question and responded appropriately. The guy asking the question should be embarrassed.

    Lol I love it. Fuck reporters who ask stupid questions.

    My 10.5 year old daughter got 15/16 of her picks right. Her lone loss was picking Hampton to beat Virginia.

    My friend who never watches sports is 14/16. He missed USC and Arkansas Little Rock (I thought it was funny he didn't pick them since he is from Arkansas). That's pretty awesome for daughter though! Hopefully today can go just as well for her. Did you enter her bracket into anything?

    Just the local work pool, $1/bracket. She has Kansas winning it all, with Kansas, Duke, UNC, and Michigan State in teh final four. Kansas/Michigan State in the Finals.

    I'm at 14/16 but had Arizona in my 8 and Seton Hall in my 16.

    Dayton/Syracuse is really hard on the eyes.

    Lowest over/under of the tournament. 129. I took the under. First to 50 wins.

    My 11 year old son's first comment was "This guy should play for the Spurs. He sounds like Pop."

    I don't think he has that much money.

    Cuse looking really good in the 2nd half.
  • ironman02
    Cal is playing without Wallace and Bird, which is making things even more difficult for them against a pretty good Hawaii team. That one might stay close throughout.
  • wildcats20
    Announcers are acting like they are down 15 too. It's kind of annoying. They are missing 2 of their best players and are down 4, shut the hell up.

    Haha. I flipped over to VCU/Oregon State because they were driving me crazy!

    I put it on my iPad, with no volume, and turned to Sparty on the tv.

    Jabari Bird is "sick."
    Jaylen Brown doesn't understand how to shoot a jump shot.

    Cal is a bust. Typical Pac 12.

    Sparty in a 15-2 hole to start. I'm sure that will change soon, but MTSU couldn't have asked for a better start.
  • SportsAndLady
    Did a double take on that MSU score. Yikes

    If they lose my bracket is FUCKED

    They cut that deficit in half in a damn hurry though
  • ironman02
    VCU just blew about a 10 point lead in a hurry. Oregon State with a lot of momentum and the lead now.
  • Azubuike24
    That was a sick outlet pass and dunk by GPII. One of the best plays of the tournament thus far.
  • ironman02
    VCU fighting back to regain the lead. This is definitely a fun game to watch.
