March Madness 2013!!

<p>^^ hmmmm, the way Duke has been this year, Henry may be on to something. I will have to consider that.</p>

<p>Sooooo excited. And last year, I actually wrote down my Yahoo info so that I don’t have to create a fifth account to play.</p>

<p>Saw Ole Miss for the first time this weekend. What’s the deal with Marshall Henderson? What an obnoxious hot dog.</p>

<p>Hooray for those little giants from the Pacific Northwest, GONZAGA!!! Although I don’t expect them to get to the title game (sigh, again) this year.</p>

<p>Glad to see UMiami and their coach have so much success. He was the coach at George Mason when they stunned the world a few years ago. Love his quips. He’s quite a card, and a great coach.</p>

<p>Another first round exit for Harvard?</p>

<p>Glad to see the committee reject UKentucky. NCAA has to discourage the Kentucky business model of 1 and Done.</p>

<p>I got to see Marshall Henderson in person twice this season, including this past Saturday. He is a punk. After Miss beat Missouri he jumped up on the scorer’s table. He taunts the other team’s bench and their fans. He hit our (Vandy) guard in the nose with his elbow in a CLEAR flagrant foul that wasn’t called, even after the refs watched a replay. I have lost a lot of respect for Andy Kennedy (coach) for taking him on. He’s been to 4 schools in 4 years. He sure can shoot, but his percentage is actually low. He throws up a lot of shots. I am not a Wisconsin fan, but I hope they wipe the floor with Henderson. I really thought Florida would, but it didn’t happen.</p>

<p>tx5athome keep the faith in Henry, remember Lehigh beat Duke last year?</p>

<p>Tuition Final Four:<br>
Notre Dame, Georgetown, Bucknell, and Duke.<br>
Bucknell and Notre Dame play in the final game.<br>
And the winner is…Bucknell: $45,132!</p>

<p>Well, I am taking Henry’s advice in one of my brackets. I can see Albany beating Duke! It’s not that far fetched. Great Danes over Blue Devils? Why not?</p>

<p>Did anyone see the ESPN special 30 on 30 Sunday night? The recap of NCSU’s magical run to the 1983 National championship was really good. The story of Jim Valvano’s battle with cancer was heartwrenching.<br>
We here at the PackHouse are hoping for another magical run for the Wolfpack.</p>

<p>Yes, PackMom! ‘Survive and Advance’ was really good. I must admit to reaching for the tissues more than once. Jimmy V’s positive influence on others is truly remarkable.</p>

<p>Ok, I’m in. Real amateur here.
Had to laugh at Rutgersmamma- matchup - Bucknell (my husband and I are grads) vs Notre Dame (son graduated)
Glad to know Bucknell would win, based on your criteria.
Now if they can just beat Butler…</p>

<p>A little OT, but I think lots of people will be happy that Kentucky is out of the NIT.</p>

<p>^^ I’m not just happy, I’m dancing around! I am embarrassed at how they represented the SEC, though. The cheer next season at all Kentucky away games is going to be “Rob-ert Mor-ris!” </p>

<p>My priest-daughter was thrilled to see Middle Tennessee bounced out of the play-in game since she (usually very appropriate behavior) got into it with Middle fans TWO years in a row when they played Vanderbilt. The fans pretty much rival Kentucky’s, but with a worse team.</p>

<p>Crap, how do I keep ending up with IU winning? That can’t be right. Makes MOWC happy, but still. . .</p>

<p>Did anybody take pictures of the priest brawl? That would be awesome.</p>

<p>Thanks for setting this up again, lderochi! I will enter DogMech to keep Henry company.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>She didn’t exactly brawl, but there were some words, including when the Middle fan said, “See you in football” the priest said “Bring it on!” The brawl happened behind us and involved an elderly Vandy fan and, what appeared to be, a very drunk Empty S U (as they are known in these parts) fan.</p>

<p>Okay, one last bump before play starts. Just a couple of hours left, people!</p>

<p>Go Davidson, Minnesota, Oregon, and Iowa State. You are my bracket busters and I am counting on you in (weighted by seed) round one.</p>

<p>I’m getting a message that the password is incorrect for the group. 59482? ccparents? Did dyslexia strike again?</p>

<p>Edit: So it did–59428. I might make it in yet.</p>

<p>GO IU!!! I’m afraid to even trust it.</p>
