    Even one victory would be a huge upset. 4 would be bigger than winning the championship! I love to hope, but I don't know...

    2 people are sensitive enough to flag a post?

    Also, in fairness, I would have told that joke whether it was a preceived male or female. I mean we really have no idea, and the forum shouldn't change its rules for race, religion or sex......IMO anyway.

    Duke is overrated. Both men and women got two seeds, and neither reached the sweet 16. Gotta love it.

    What was I saying? While this is not exactly a family friendly site, especially in the OT, I think there is a certain understanding we have with one another here. We may make post crazy memes and talk crap and make jokes, but usually we don't do so at the expense of others. (My jokes are usually at my own expense, or at least are some attempt at wit and humor) There is a certain respect here, though some are a little rough around the edges.

    Just hope the Ducks don't draw Connecticut in the future. I just watched them steamroll Syracuse. Geno Auriemma's team is like a machine. Let Oregon State draw them instead.

    They don't re-seed the tourney. UO is in Uconn's region. If the Ducks are able to get past Maryland on Saturday, a date with the Auriemma's awaits.

    Lol. No bud, I was talking about the post of yours that was right before mine. The on-topic one.
    That was totally my bad for not stating that. (I do agree with all the stuff you said tho...) I was just trying to go back on topic....

    In a ONE game situation sure. Ducks probably lose that 7 game series 4-1 and I'm a Duck fan.

    He said they MAYBE have a CHANCE. That's why they play the games man. Never know what's going to happen.

    I agree. If there's not a chance, then why even bother playing? Just money?

    We play them pretty tough and IF Durant is out, the match ups are even tighter.

    More than likely, someone is just be a bit upset that their favorite team, the lakers, won't make the playoffs.

    Yeah, and they still had a chance up until about two games ago. Granted, they would have had to win every single game left, and about every other team would have had to lose every single game they had left. Meh, wasn't likely, but it was still possible..... Lol

    Really?

    So it's just some weird coincidence that as soon as someone said they were a girl, in direct reply to that post you decide that you would tell that particular joke? But it has nothing to do with them being a woman.

    Uh huh.
