    Memphis proved to be very aggressive and just wore UCLA down. Rose had the best over Collison and I think that proved to be the difference.

    I was shocked by the ease that Kansas dismissed North Carolina. Sure ruined my bracket predictions! :eek:

    I couldn't believe what mismatches those games turned out to be. Right now I have to believe that Memphis is going to beat Kansas.

    Quick look at the standings and I see that if Kansas wins Don is the overall champion, if Memphis wins it's a tie between Scott and RoGator.

    No one personifies the fall of the Gator Basketball Hegmony than GatorBill himself...he must have been on pain meds when he filled out his bracket!!! :twisted: :twisted:

    Watching the athleticism and talent of this Final Four makes you understand completely why Florida's freshmen didn't take UF back to the elite this year....they just don't match up with these guys.

    The previous two Florida teams had those guys in Horford, Noah and Brewer but even with another year of seasoning I don't think UF will be quite on the level of Memphis and Kansas this year.

    How is your leg coming along Bill?

    What kind of rehab exercises are you doing?

    I have mostly been walking but I think I need to do leg lifts etc. to further strengthen my quad tendons.

    I just completed two trips to New York ( 10 days total ) and that is a heck of a place to walk around because of all the uneveness of the roads and the sidewalks....( especially late at night after you have had a few... :wink: ).

    In any event I survived it and the ice and snow of a serious Detroit winter so therefore.......so far so good.
