March Madness 2012

<p>My goodness, all these upsets killing me. (but my avg. did rise a little bit today :D)</p>

<p>But I’m messed up now because Duke was one of my final 4, in fact I had Duke winning it all :(</p>

<p>I’m in 3rd place now. Good job, roman, for not picking U of M or Missouri.</p>

<p>Thank you all…I’m sure that this is the last moment that I will be atop the leaderboard. I did love the Lehigh and Ohio wins, even tho I did not pick either one.</p>

<p>Great tournament…Way to Go, Lehigh…</p>

<p>Anybody else notice the UNC fans (clad in their Carolina blue, of course) cheering for Lehigh, waving brown signs! —cracked me up…no love lost between those two!!</p>

<p>BTW whoever heard of having BROWN for their team colors??!!!</p>

<p>Any loss for Duke is a win for UNC. </p>

<p>Let me rephrase that. Any loss for Duke is a win for the rest of the country. Does any non-Duke alumni ever root for Duke?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Lots of people… I am not one of them!</p>

<p>So happy for Lehigh!! There will be some major celebrating in Bethlehem tonight!! I actually like BROWN for a school color. :wink: looks classy…</p>

<p>That game was great. I don’t think anyone in the state of CT likes Duke, except Duke alums. After so few upsets on Thurs, yesterday was alot of fun to watch.</p>

<p>The only bad thing about March Madness is that it makes you cheer for teams you normally despise… Makes you feel a bit gross.</p>

<p>And here we goooooooo…everybody ready?</p>

<p>After yesterday? No. Not at all haha</p>

<p>(sigh) I had such high aspirations for Vandy.</p>

<p>Heartbreak. I will miss this team so much. I’ve gotten to know and love many of the players. I’ve been dreading this day for over a year- not the loss, but the end of the team.</p>

<p>With the Duke loss, the 2012 version is already in the books as great. Could not care less who ends up winning. </p>

<p>Go Blue Devils! There is always Lacrosse.</p>

<p>PS too bad for Vandy.</p>

<p>Every year I have a “real bracket” and a wishlist bracket. As a fan of the Big 10 I am sitting pretty right now with IU, Ohio Sate and Wisconsin. I never thought I would see a sweet 16 with this many corn-fed, hand spanked fans.</p>

<p>MB,</p>

<p>I hope after today there will be more from BIG in there.</p>

<p>My bracket is Big 10 heavy, too. Worked out splendidly so far. I have MSU and OSU in my final four so fingers crossed that they do well. I was wise enough to not have Michigan going too far though.</p>

<p>I’m currently in 1st place in my pool so working today and not seeing the games is torture. -.-</p>

<p>I’m happy to see Big 10 doing well, especially when my team is in the mix :).</p>

<p>MOWC - completely agree about this team. It has been wonderful to see them get better and better as the year progressed. I enjoyed the team when Shan Foster was a senior, but this group has delivered even more to the fans, IMO.</p>

<p>My alma mater, as usual, failed to produce a winning season and therefore failed to make the tournament. Argh!!! Thus, every year I happily root for an underdog like Lehigh. Hate the brown uniforms though.</p>

<p>Not a Duke hater but Coack K’s superior attitude burned my britches years ago. Typically great ball teams, but often boorish behavior demonstrated by those squads. Just like the BYU football teams of the past.</p>

<p>I’m sorry about Vandy, too. Last Sunday’s game was amazing. I’m getting over my Mizzou mourning and starting to pay attention again.</p>
