I hate March Madness.

The Bruins inability to box out and fight for rebounds kills them.  Dammit.

And too many easy shots missed.

[PattyD22]

Juzang and Jaquez Jr are 10-30 tonight.  That’s brutal.  I know Jaquez is on a bum ankle, but he was chucking bricks tonight.

[Lou]

Look at the bright side...

the IPL begins tomorrow.

[PattyD22]

Well I have Kansas in my bracket pool at work, so I still have a vested/financial interest in the tournament.  I’ll need Duke to lose though.

Purdue…..another March Madness under achiever.

[Jay]

I was watching tv with my wife and switched over to SP/Purdue during one of the commercial breaks. There were about 4 minutes remaining in the game and I left it there. One of those sports moments you're glad you saw.

Later I watched the second half of UNC/UCLA. That game could have gone either way. A couple of late 3's by UNC sealed the deal.

It’s fitting unc plays the first 15 seed to make the elite 8. They already own two championships  with the easiest routes in ncaa history. All this post dates Fred browns historic pass and cwebs time out. Love how they now claim the Heinz trophy as a national  championship as well

For all of you who keep bombarding me with PMs , KKR beat CSK by 6 wickets (with 9 balls remaining).

[PattyD22]

No matter how these announcers want to call this a defensive game, this game is nothing but a brick fest.  What a dogshit display of shooting and it has zero to do with defense.

[PattyD22]

Houston 1-17 from 3 point range.

Villanova 5-21 from 3.

Clank, clank, clank…..

This is why I appreciate St Pete's. They work for a good mid-range shot.

It’s the equivalent of a 7-3 football game with 14 punts.

6-3

missed extra point 

[Lou]

The O/U on this game was 127. Imagine taking the over. 

[Kotchman]

Damn they picked a real shit crew for officials tonight.

I thought the same thing Lou.  For oddsmakers to be roughly 30 points off, it really shows how crappy both these teams were offensively.

[PattyD22]

I don’t have the dislike for Duke as some of you guys do, but damn…they look tough right now.

They're a complete team.

They really are Lou.  And very young.  3 freshmen and 2 sophomores as starters.  Like Saint Peters does, they milk the clock and take smart shots.

They are going to be tough in the final four.  I’ll say it now.

[Lou]

72-57 with 4:11 left.

We'll see how many of those youngsters leave for the NBA.

I’d guess all of them.  With Coach K leaving, I’d say all of them.  It is what it is….one and done’s.
