    The overall #1 seed, defending champion, against a team in their first NCAA. Expected a slaughter.

    Notre Dame killing on St. Patrick's Day. Would rather watch Michigan but don't have ESPN-U.

    We need size. With the #1 pick, the Portland Trail Blazers select Zach Edey!

    Mississippi State needed a play in to get to the tournament. They just upset #6 Creighton. We have a Cinderella!

    The first 4 days of March madness are the best.


    The rest of it is a waste of time but the fairly Dickinson stuff is so good.

    That was so shocking the 1980 Russian hockey team just called Purdue and mocked them

    Waste of time? Watching hungry kids, which 98% of will never make the NBA is 10x better than the shit I’m watching right now.

    I love the sport of basketball.

    The product of college basketball is unwatchable but I agree with the other stuff.

    The sport of basketball is awful right now as a whole. Largely unwatchable. Not like 10-15 years ago.

    Yeah the NBA isn’t great right now. No defense, too many chuck fest 3’s and quality players sitting out just because.

    ...yuck! This guy does nothing but lose in the biggest games. He looked slower than Yao Ming after his feet failed him. I'd rather draft Oden again (even knowing how his career would go) :biglaugh: Zach Edey will not last long in the NBA.

    I think Eric just likes him because his name is so close to Zach Addy

    Only thing as bad as drafting a WABC in the lottery is drafting a WNABC in the lottery.

    #24 Butthead St. knocking out #12 Virginia in the first round

    Or maybe #34 Butthead St. knocking out Purdue in the first round
