Sucks about the players injury.  All the best.

 

Meanwhile, after a nice long break, back to March Madness.  While my real bracket...well, I tore it despite the winner.  The green bracket has been kind to me.  However, I expect about a couple one seeds to fall before the weekend.  Which is the norm most times (assuming they don't fall the weekend before).

What will make that more probable than not is the teams remaining.  No "Cinderella" this time

While the following makes me a hypocrite, I'm not a fan of all the changes either.  So many and in short order.  I'll still hold to how I'd love to see a major change in the NFL (and in MLB) as it relates to franchises within divisions, conferences, and leagues.

Change is inevitable.  Probably no longer worth it to follow a school or even a player.  Maybe for a year, but that's it.

The only thing that doesn't really change is Blue Blood programs making it to End City

Amid the constant criticism toward the selection committee over the past couple of weeks, if not the past several years, I think it's fair enough to "respect" them this time around.  There may have been questions in terms of the one seeds, and while it's fair enough...

...Saturday's Final Four will feature all four top seeds for the second time in 40 years.  At the very least.  Coincidentally enough, the last time that happened, the venue for the National Semis and the Tournament Final took place in San Antonio.  Not only that, the dates on the calendar between 2008 and this season are a match.

Discuss which is the worst choke.

Kevin's brother Buzz choking on a cheese pizza in a genuine attempt to produce cheese pizza for the younger sibling since plain cheese was no longer an option. 

FYI: Kevin was a young super fan of the Chicago Bulls, and maybe Flagg gets drafted there

While it may not be a popular choice, New England losing the game against a very inferior opponent for Super Bowl 42 is the call.  Say what you will against Philadelphia a decade later but along with Super Bowl 48 (albeit on a lesser scale) that was embarrassing for the AFC East powerhouse

My all time favorite. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 

That epic failure just warms my heart to no end. 73-9 went into the landfill where it belongs. Plus, it put an end to 52 yrs of epic failures from a Cleveland sports team. I know that ESPN was very very sad that night. I'm very certain that ESPN is just as sad last night over Duke's epic choking. 

Oh well, I wonder who the next Duke superstar that ESPN is going to hype up next season.

i also enjoyed that immensely. I'm not a Red Sox fan, but I really enjoyed that miracle comeback.

That will always be in the top 3 of all time. The Falcons will never ever be forgiven for that.
