Been a while since I've done one on ESPN. Good news is that once I logged in the one I did for work automatically copied over to this group. Bad news is I have an ugly Gator logo beside my entry.

Thanks for the reminder … except there's another SEC logo next to my entry.

Haven't watched much semi-pro basketball this season.

Is there some sort of new rule only permitting 3-point shots?

Perhaps Purdue reached its High Point last year. Huh! Huh! I'm here all week, fork off, etc.

This sounds stupid, but my mind for the rest of my life will expect to hear Greg Gumbel's voice for gamebreaks during the tournament.

Alabama State gets to within 32-31, misses two free throws for the lead, and then Auburn closes the first half on a 9-0 run in the last 1:13 and will probably win this game by 30.

Boy you'd have to be a pants-shipting moron to pick Clemson as a surprise Final Four team.

Oh.

LOL Clemson (sorry dixie)

It looked like they got a little spooked. Even before the free throws they missed a couple shots they should have made. (Of course I've been hilariously wrong about everything today so Alabama State is going to win)

If you take the jersey name off, McNeese just looks more talented.

Unrelated, but because he was a talented basketball recruit, did no one over the last 20 years have the guts to tell Blake Griffin he's not funny? He's that kind of painfully unfunny that makes me cringe and feel bad for him.

 

[Hermes]

Did Will Wade promise to take them all to NC State if they won? It looks like it.

It's shocking how far the ACC except for Duke has fallen.
