:!: Maybe the greatest finish ever. Villanova had a special season. I love that play at the end. Everyone collapses on the kid who dishes it off and sets a moving screen at the same time. Wow!
How many viewers who haven't seen Villanova play think Ryan Arcidiacono's first name is Archie, and his last name is Diacono? When I first saw him play a few years ago, that's what I thought. I was cheering for Villanova, but I wouldn't have been disappointed if UNC had won. It was the kind of game where you almost wish both teams could have won. They played that hard.
Final Standings. Again Congrats to Bobda. Interesting that Sid made the most correct picks yet finished 4th. MSU really did him in, if they'd just made the Sweet 16 Sid would probably have won. Bobda and I had the same number of correct picks, yet it was a blowout! Stu and Fitz had the same number of correct picks, another blowout! It's how your picks fall that counts.
Great job by Bobda. I hope he used the same bracket in a pool that had cash prizes. He might have cashed big time.
What did you guys think of all the teams wearing that "Always Reppin" on their warmup shirts. I didn't really care for it myself, I guess it means something to kids, but not to me. I'd rather have my team wear my teams warmups. Both the Men and the Women are wearing them.
Terry, it looks like the NCAA determined the color of the shirts and the phrase, Always Reppin'. I don't understand the meaning, but we old guys are not the target audience. Each year, I'm amazed at the lengths to which the NCAA goes to make each arena floor completely uniform except for the name of the city in which it's located.
UConn women comleted their 4 year run of dominance by winning the womens Nat'l Title easily over Syracuse. Stewart - 4 times MOP Stewart, Tuck and Jefferson all 1st team AA's this year. Only lost 5 games in their career. 3 times to Notre Dame, 1 time to Baylor and 1 time to Stanford. They'll still be very good next year and in the mix for another NC, but the competition will be pretty good. Baylor, ND, and So.Carolina all will be capable of winning and there are some other teams who could also be in the mix.
