The NCAA Tournament was invented as a National Holiday weekend for vasectomies and sciatica recovery. Frozen pea sales spike every year! This is an investment opportunity, I can feel it in my bones. Mortimer!!! 

Can't be any worse than the investment advice my ex broker gave me...did I mention he's my ex broker?

For those wanting a real sport tune over to ESPN for the ncaa wrestling finals.

 

These dudes get rougher and tougher ever year. Half of them looked like they just wrestled a barbwire roll.

 

The announcer you hear is Jordan Burroughs. Thurman Thomas's neices husband. A bills fan. And I'm almost certain he has posted here before.

Hard to believe they botched the end of reg inbounds. I literally couldn't believe it when they threw it to Dante. My jaw hit the floor.

The Ducks didn't have their best.... almost survived it, then botched the ending.

They're down 4 scholarship players at that point, 3 who were starters, so they didn't have much depth. 

They really played their hearts out the last few weeks just to win the Pac and get into the dance.

Proud of the effort and the performances.

 What was frustrating tonight is Couisnard drove the lane 20 times with everybody swiping at him and did not take a single ft the entire game.   33 shot attempts by Couisnard, a lot of them driving the lane with people swiping at him and not a single ***** free throw for him the whole game, plus two overtimes. That has to be a record, 33 shots 0 fts

O well

It was a good game

Congrats to Creighton

I will be stunned if a team other than UConn wins it all.  Even if it’s Purdue or Tennessee.  I know anything can happen in the tournament but UConn just seems unbeatable.

 

That’s what they say…..right before the unbeatable team goes down!  😂 

 

I’m a Big East guy (Xavier grad), so hoping they can maintain the level they are playing at. That’s what is so great about this tournament, anything really can happen!

OK, I’m not trying to jinx anything, but TODAY does not look like the day that UConn will be beat. WOW! And I watch BE hoops. 

 

 

Last May we flew into Florence, Italy on a small plane filled mostly with college girls. Popular destination for college girls for some reason. 🤷‍♂️

 

A couple girls are wearing UConn gear so we start talking. I tell them Xavier beat them 3 times that year, but lost in the Sweet 16. UConn won the ones that counted, like our Bills will be doing soon!!!

After the first half ended, maybe you might think Illinois had a chance.  But this 2nd half has been a clinic.  They already equaled their first-half output in the first 8:20.

 

Oh and UCONN lost to Xavier twice last season.

We were out to dinner with friends and got home early second half. I’ve been wanting to tap the brakes on UConn, but it’s hard to do seeing this. 

 

But as we know, they play the games for a reason!

Yup.  And they're doing this against the #2 offense in the country.

Held them to 52 points. That’s pretty crazy stuff.

I thought we got them in the BE Tournament too, but regardless I can now bluff a bunch of drunk college girls. If only…….
