As you can see from my tourney picks, I didn't do too poorly over the last 4 days. My overall record in terms of wins/losses was 38-10. However, I did pick Arizona St. to upset Syracuse yesterday, which didn't happen, and I also had them picked to beat Oklahoma in the Sweet 16. Good thing James Harden showed up for the tournament. He decided to shoot 3-18 in the two games (against Temple and 'Cuse), while scoring a combined 19 points. Good thing he averaged 20 points per game during the regular season. Ass.
So there goes one of my Elite 8 picks. The rest of my Elite 8 picks are still in tact (Pitt, Nova, UNC, Louisville, Kansas, UConn and Missouri) so I'm happy about that. Like I said before, Pitt looks shaky, Nova was shaky but righted the ship, same goes for UNC, Kansas, Louisville, and UConn. Missouri won a nail biter against Marquette yesterday because some meathead on Marquette got called for an inbounds violation with 5 seconds left and his team down 2. What a bonehead play. Not only did it screw him team over, but it also screwed over everyone who bet on Marquette. The line was Missouri -3, and that dumbo's mistake ended up giving Missouri the ball, Marquette fouled, and 2 free throws accounted for the final 4 point margin of 83-79. Instead of identifying and naming that bonehead, I will give you this picture instead.
A few other college basketball notes:
- BC got smoked by USC, naturally
- Syracuse looks very dangerous. I could actually see them winning it all
- Could we see a final 4 of all Big East squads? I say yes
- Blake Griffin is NASTY, even if he gets tons of superstar calls
- Can Duke please lose already?
- Same thing with Gonzaga
- Michigan State won't win it all unless they bring back Mateen Cleaves and Mo Pete

When the ref blew the whistle and told me I had stepped on the line, the only thing I could think of was:
"Big Q must of had us as his LOCK OF THE DAY"
Yea, I have Pitt winning everything too :-) I hope we're right cuz I got $5 in office pool money going on it-- and I like returns on my investments!!!!
