Ok, say that you and I both have kids graduating from highschool this year
with grades that are about the same. Say that the only difference is that my
kid is 5' 8", somewhat awkward but has a knack for physics while your kid is 6'
10", was voted to the all-star team in the league in which his highschool team
plays and can bury a 3 pointer from 25 feet.
Which one of us is more likely to have to pay to have our kid go to college?
Now I have no problem with this, but calling college basketball players
amateurs is stretching the meaning of the word a bit. They are certainly
compensated for their efforts with room, board, and a free college education
which would cost the normal person in excess of $10,000 a year.

I want to direct this one to JACK MARTIN. jack, if a person gets into
college cause she/he can play a sport, and isn't getting in due to their
scholastic aptitude, do you think these people ALSO should not be allowed to

You missed my point alltogether. You said the worst NBA team would beat
the top college team by 40 or 50 points. What does that have to do with
a college education?? And yes the Legal definition of a pro is that the
NBA players get paid big $$$$$$ to play the game. College players do
not get paid to play. hence, that is the difference. I highly doubt
the L.A. Clippers or the Minnesota Timberwolves could beat ANY top
college team by 40 or more points. They would be lucky to win at all.

When did I ever say the score had anything to do with a college education?
All I was point out is that "March Madness" is all about teams of players who
are not that good when compared to the best athletes who play the game.
>And yes the Legal definition of a pro is that the

Well that depends on how you define the word "paid". If you get room and
board for 4 years along with a free college education can you say that you
were not paid? I suppose but it's really splitting hairs.
>I highly doubt
> the L.A. Clippers or the Minnesota Timberwolves could beat ANY top

I don't think I said "worst", I believe I said "average". The Clippers and
Timberwolves are not average NBA teams.

Actually it's not that bad. There were a few players who had low grades but
then there were a few that had very good grades and I believe one who was an
honor student.
But the way the story was spun by the Boston Globe made it sound a lot worse
if you didn't read the entire text. The Globe has a credibility problem when
it comes to U.Mass with most of their sports department coming from B.C.

Given that even truly superior college teams rarely produce more than
two NBA players, it is ludricous to think that the Clippers or
Timberwolves would not be able to beat any top college team soundly.
The physical strength and the shooting accuracy and shooting range of
NBA players far exceeds that of good college players.
This is not to take away from the entertainment value of college
basketball which often far exceeds that of the NBA.

| The thing I like about college basketball is it doesn't make me feel
too bad. I watch college ball and I could maybe hold my own for a few
minutes on the floor with some of the teams, but NBA... well, it's
fun to watch guys fly 10 foot off the ground from the foul line to
the rim, do a 360 spin, and a roundhouse jam, but well... it's just
a tad hard to relate I'm afraid. My version of a dunk, at my top
FSC reserve forward form (with a whopping .4 pt career average! :-)
was to barely get my fingertips to the rim and just give the ball
a shove! :-)

Colleges as private institutions can set up their own agenda. They can
keep their faculty and students all polish for all I care. But the
government doesn't have the right to meddle and set the standards.
That's using my tax dollars to sponsor inequity. If the college is
racist (Like Howard University for example), or sexist (like the
Citadel for example) then it's their business and I don't have to be
part of it! I think it's wrong just as it is wrong for MIT or any Ivy

Most colleges do receive your tax dollars, which does make you part of
it (if you want to be). Some schools, like Smith College, do not
receive federal funds and their admissions practices are indeed
entirely their own business.

| March Madness is great both at the High School and College levels. Who
cares if the college players are semi-pros. The NCAA tourney is the
most consistently exciting of the major sports events in America.
In some ways I like the early rounds even better than the "Final Four"
because there are more games to watch and occasionally you get to see a
"David" slay a "Goliath"
My biggest NCAA tourney vicarious thrill was when my High School Coach
Rollie Massimino ( a great guy until he got greedy at UNLV ) led
Villanova to the Championship with a big upset of Georgetown.

I don't think Arkansas will repeat, though. They have not been very
consistent this year. Good game against #18 the other night. They
seem to do good playing the ranked teams (except for the opener game
against UMass), but lose to doink teams.

| One thing I don't like about this tournament is it's single game elimination
format. When you consider that there are thousands of College teams, if two of
the top 64 play a single game, anything can happen. It's practically a coin flip
as to who wins.
Was B.C. really better than N.C. last year? Would B.C. have beat them in a
best of 7? Best of 5? Even a best of 3? Probably not.

You can't afford an off game in the tourney, that's for sure. I don't

to dispute that Arkansas WAS the best team last year.
As for the polls, that looks like March Madness has already

lose at least one more game (ACC is a very tough league). UCLA?

| Well, the weekend had some really good games on the tube (and since
I don't have a life, I watched most of them :-) ).
DePaul delivered a blow to Louiville when Klendscmidt(sp?) hit a 3
pointer and was fouled. The free throw was the difference.
Alabama bounced Florida, making it very difficult for the Gators to
get back to the tournament.
Purdue does not appear to miss Robinson that much as they defeated
Wisconsin.
Georgetown rediscovered Harrington as they handed Syracuse yet
another defeat (5 in last 7? :-( )
UCLA won convincingly against an undermanned Duke team to become #1

| Okay, time for a serious basketball discussion.
The NCAA tournament gives an automatic bid to 30 some conferences.
In conferences that have a tournament, the bid goes to the team that
wins the tournament. Occasionally, the best team in these conferences
does not win their conference tournament. I present as evidence, the
TAAC (don't remember what the letters stand for) sutomatic bid went to
Florida International, which had a 8-17 regular season record, but won
the conference tournament. Stetson was the best team elligible for the
conference tournament. Here is the question, should the NCAA decide
that the automatic bid should go to the team with the best regular
season record in the conferences?
ME
|
| 302.88 | | CSOA1::LEECH | beware of flaming gerbil projectiles | Mon Mar 06 1995 12:23 | 15 |
| I'm not sure there should be an automatic bid. Why not just invite the
64 best teams (best record, including schedule strength into the
equation) to the tourney?
You always end up with a 16 seed that gets trounced by 30 points to a 1
seed...not very thrilling. I think it is unfair when a good team gets
pushed off the bubble (say one who didn't win its conf. tourney, but it
ranked #35 in the nation overall) because you have to let in a team
with a 6-20 record who wins its tourney.
Too many good teams are left out, teams that could make the big dance a
lot more interesting (of course, this would certainly make picks a bit
tougher in the pools 8^) ).

Depends on what you think is "interesting." Schools with big sports
budgets will always make the field of 64, but small-time programs may
not.
I think the NCAA shows some (usually lacking) gumption by keeping it
the way it is. I personally *like* seeing all the Rider and Coppin
State teams play every year. I would *never* hear about those schools
otherwise. I enjoy watching those teams, seeing what the unknowns are
doing.
Sure, the best basketball isn't being played because you don't have the
best 64 teams in the country.
But this is, afterall, not professional ball. Let's keep what little
variety and collegiate brotherhood we have in NCAA sports and let the
little guys have their shots. The big schools have 32 other chances
to get and at-large bid, and generally have the means to attain a shot
there if they want one.
Plus, there *is* the occasional upset (URI to the sweet 16 in '88), and
that's always fun to watch.

| I say let the minor conferences get their automatic berth.
These schools do play some good ball, but are not known about because
they don't get the TV exposure that others get. This is usually proven
when they play the better teams. Sure, they get to be low seeded, but
think of the glory if they actually won. Look at Santa Clara about three
years ago. The whole campus was one big party after they knocked off
#2 Arizona. So, these small conferences do produce teams that could be
considered one of the best 64 teams.

Sure the 6th place team in the Big 10 is a better team than the
champion of the IVY league or a bunch of other conferences but so what.
Just seeding the top 64 teams, IMO, just makes the tournament have more
mediocre teams because that 6th place team competes under much
different circumstances (scholarships, TV exposure, size of school,
academic standards (or lack thereof) than the IVY league team. The IVY
league team excelled under it's set of cicumstances while the 6th place
Big 10 team was mediocre under it's.
If they make any changes I hope they cut down the number of
representatives from the big conferences.

| Why not have the killer "32 point bracket"? Picking the winner of the
big dance is always tricky; besides, it helps do away with ties.
Oh well, I'll have my picks in tomorrow sometime. I'm sitting with a
pick sheet in front of me right now and will be filling it out as the
day goes by.
Anyone see the Kentucky/Arkansas game Sunday? Amazing. Everytime
Arkansas got conservative with their offense, Kentucky came back.
Eventually they won it in OT in this fashion. You would've thought
that they would have kept attacking the hoop, especially when being
conservative is what got them in trouble in the first place. If
Richardson is smart, he will have learned something from this mistake
and he won't make it again.
Kentucky has too good a defense to let them get set. A hard lesson
that cost Ark. the SEC championship.
It was an exciting game.

Would you be so polite as to but that in bracket form? It would make it much
easier for me if I am going to keep score here.
For the rest of you, you have until 12 noon Eastern Standard, 11AM Central,
10AM Mountain, and 9AM Pacific (of course - if you live or posr in a time zone other
than these, convert noon Eastern time to your time.

| Try this:
extract bball
If you will look below the command line after you type in the extract
command and hit 'enter', you will see a string looking something like
this: 1 note written to file DISK$USER03:[(your user name)]bball;1

type in "reply" then the file ^

| I should change my sheet, but I'll leave it as is. Now I have three
different pool sheets. 8^)
On my spoiler sheet here at work, I have Ball St. beating Ariz. state,
and my final 4 are Villanova, Maryland, Ark., and Kentucky (in addition
to the spoilers in my soapbox sheet). I weenied out on my Alabama
spoiler pick, I have wake Wake Forest beating them.
My normal sheet has Ark, Kentucky, Wake Forest and UConn as my final
four. I decided to enter two sheets this year in hopes of keeping
things interesting in the light of the inevitable upsets.
I will be having lunch in today...will be watching first round games
in the lunchroom. 8^)

No problem. 8^)
|
| 302.155 | lots of games to go, thank goodness | CSOA1::LEECH | Go Hogs! | Thu Mar 16 1995 17:31 | 16 |
| The first three teams to be bumped out of the tourney are:
Arizona (ugh!)
Oklahoma (yikes!)
NC A&T (a no brainer)
So, if you picked Miami (I almost picked them, but didn't), Wake Forest
(you were an idiot if you didn't), and Manhattan (who I never gave a
second thought to), you are 3 for 3.
If you made normal picks (like me), you are 1 for 3. This is my worst
start in recent memory of the tourney. <sigh>

well Steve, there are always a couple of upsets in every first round
game. Thank God I didn't have Arizona or Oklahoma winning round 2.

| No Mark, no bubble burst. Just a show of alma mater pride was all. In
the grand order of things, I could actually care less being a
non-fan of most things sporting. This is not to be construed as
contempt for those that do care however.

| I seem to have 12 points on all of my pools...different picks
on each one notwithstanding. Strange how that works out.
Maybe I'll do better today. 12 of 16 is hopelessly average and I'm
probably behind in the pool that counts already.
For those who think one point is not a big deal, I was "dis-placed"
from last years pool by a couple of points (2 or 3), and took second a
few years back, one point behind first.

Can I post my picks that were entered in the ::SPORTS note? They were
entered prior to 12 noon yesterday. If I could figure out how to move
them from one note to another I'd do it. You can check to make sure
that I did not cheat (I'm 12 - 7 so far). Trust me.

| Bet is on.
Arkansas is currently up 15 with the ball with a few minutes to go in
the first half.
An interesting score (to say the least) at half is:
North Carolina- 41
Murray St.- 44
I picked NC in all my pools, but I have to root for the underdog here.
The right half of my sheet (East/West), which was perfect through day
one gets marred with the Stanford win (those weenies!).

| 302.195 | | CSOA1::LEECH | Go Hogs! | Fri Mar 17 1995 18:41 | 13 |
| The last fraction of a second tip-in for Murray St. was taken
away...officials overturned the orginal ruling (it was a good call, I
saw the replay- time and horn had definitely gone off before the tip).
Halftime score was 42-41 Murray St.
Current score is:
51-45 Murray St. (who had the ball when I was walking by)
Go Murray! 8^)

| Too bad for Syracuse, almost pulled off the big upset (though I'm not
too unhappy about it, personally 8^) ). Arkansas threw the game away
to them and they went and returned the favor.
I don't have much confidence in the hogs at this point. The only sheet
that I'm doing half decent on (relative to my spoiler sheet) has
Arkansas winning it all. They better get their act together quick!
Memphis is no slouch. Personally, I'd like to see them beat Memphis by
about 30+...I picked Purdue on my sheet. <grumble>

Arkansas scares the s*** out of me, the way they are playing. In my
brothers pool, I'm in first by 1 point. He has Kentucky winning and
I have Arkansas. I like his chances based on play so far.

| I agree...Kentucky has looked a LOT better in this tourney.
One thing for sure, you never know what Arkansas will do. They can
play with any team out there and score at will (if you'd seen the Ar/Ky
game before the tourney, Arkansas went up by 20 in no time flat before
getting too tentative on offense...shortening the game is never in
their best interest, they don't play well that way).
I'm just wondering how big a lead on Memphis they will get before they
follow their troublesome pattern of carelessness. Hopefully, it will
be enough.

| Kentucky has looked well, but a team that I consider a sleeper now is Tulsa.
Tulsa has the kind of style that can drive coaches nuts. The love to run up
and down the floor and take lots of 3s. Umass better not take this team too
lightly if they want to advance. Of cource, with Villanova gone, I need a Tulsa
win.
ME

| 302.214 | | CSOA1::LEECH | Go Hogs! | Tue Mar 21 1995 17:41 | 17 |
| Villanova was my sleeper pick for the final four on my spoiler sheet
(and on my soapbox sheet, which is very similar to my spoiler sheet).
On my "real" pick sheet, I still have all final 8 teams alive...amazing
considering how many 1st & 2nd round upsets there were (and how many I
missed...I'm sitting on 43 points right now). If all 8 teams I picked
to win manage to win, I should be right back in the game. 8^)
Somehow, judgeing by the way things are going, I don't think this will
happen, but I will keep my fingers crossed. 8^)
Stick a fork in me for the soapbox pool...I'm done.

well judge, my real pool pays cash, Soapbox doesn't. Plus I have 65
points in the other pool. As for two pools, why do you think I have
pool cues?

| How do you have 65 points in a pool? Do they give more than 32
points/round. Since there have only been two rounds, the max you could
have is 64 points.

oops 66 points. 1 point for 1st round games 3 points for 2nd round
games. 14-16 in round two = 42. 24-8 in first round = 24. 66 total.

Saturday and Sunday. I believe the games will 7:00 and 9:00 or

their current trent of getting a huge lead only to squabble it away and
then squeak to the next round via an act of God; or will they play the
entire game?
They have been less than impressive so far, and I have them picked to
go all the way.
I fully expect another nail-biter tonight, but hope that they win by
about 20...sure would make me feel better about my picks.

teams? (or play just hard enough to win?) 8^)
UConn let me down. In the pool here at work, I picked 6 of the final
8, but unfortunately, ended up losing 3 of the final four picks. UConn
hurt the most, as I had them as a finalist with Arkansas beating them
in the final game.

win), it is the added excitement that the pool adds to the tourney.
Games that would normally mean nothing to me are now worth "points", and
are a bit more fun to watch (it's nice having a team to root for). 8^)

RE: .243
Jim,
Mark's right (Partially)
What happened was that a player on Georgetown had a really bad
cold/flu/whatever and officials allowed him to wear a t-shirt under
his regular uniform...
Once the precedent was set, they had to allow others who complained
of colds etc. or drafty gyms...

| re .260
It's not the money (if that even matters). For most people,
who cares much about a game between North Carolina and Arkansas,
for instance...
I really wouldn't. But for me in this particular pool, I have
UCLA to win it all, and most others have Arkansas. Now I have
a reason to favor one school over the other.
If you ever went to Jai Alai, it often works the same way.
re .263 POBOX::BATTIS
> well it looks like Joe and mz_debra, are hot on my trail!!! Good luck

Mark --
You and mz_debra have the same picks from here on in if I read
things correctly.
You are in the driver's seat. If UCLA wins it all, I win the
pool. All other scenarios give you the win, I believe.

It would seem your Ok. St. pick wasn't as crazy as I thought it was

| Believe it or not, I picked Oklahoma State because just last
month Readers Digest did an article on them about a dying kid
that became their team inspiration a few years ago, and I thought
that resurrecting that story now would give the team an emotional
boost. I was tempted to take them even further in the pool, but
thought that final four was crazy enough.

Ok, I think we have enough info for a confession. The Richardson's

each. Judge Komar, will you be pressing charges?

| 302.305 | no one stepped up for Arkansas... | CSOA1::LEECH | Go Hogs! | Tue Apr 04 1995 16:14 | 56 |
| I have a few comments about the game (other than my obvious
disappointment 8^) ):
1) Williamson got mugged each and every time the ball was passed inside
to him. Where were the whistles? I'm not saying he was fouled *every*
time, but I did see a few times where I thought the foul was obvious
(and I have a big tv, so I see all 8^) ). Without the inside game, I
was surprised they stayed in it as long as they did.
2) Arkansas inhaled on the glass, period. UCLA out-rebounded the hogs
50-31, I believe. Amazing. Second chance points killed Arkansas, and
was their downfall.
3) I think it would have been better for the Hogs if Edney has been
uninjured. Perhaps then they would have gone with plan B, which is
playing solid half-court defense, rather than continuing with a press
that had little effect (other than for a few minutes in the first
half). They gave UCLA too many easy baskets. I don't think Richardson
respected Dollar, and thought he could cause a lot of turnovers with
the press since Edney was out.
4) The trapping zone was working well for Arkansas, why did they go
back to a full court press? UCLA is well known for being great in the
open floor.
5) Arkansas missed too many easy shots.
6) UCLA looked very good defensively, and their offense was excellent.
Their quick passes and good ball movement really helped them to score
against a good defensive team.
I think that UCLA was definitely the better team last night, as they
had Arkansas playing catch up most of the time. Their coach did an
excellent job with a limited bench against Arkansas' *very* deep bench.
A well played game for UCLA. They were definitely prepared to win,
Edney or no Edney, which shows the ability of the coach to motivate his
team.
Well done, UCLA.
I must admit, I'm not happy at all about the way things turned out, I
would much rather have seen a close game going down to the wire, but
that's the way it goes. I don't expect Arkansas to be the same team
next year, as they loose McDaniel, Beck, Stewart and probably one or
two more good players. Of course, UCLA looses O'Bannon. 8^) (at
least, I thought they said he was a senior)
I finish with only 91 points in my pool here at work, which is more
than a few points out of the running. At least I didn't miss placing
by only a couple points, like I did last year (and I even picked the
winner last year). I now have ESPN, though, so I should do better next
year as I will be able to keep track of the good teams. 8^)

Congratulations on winning the soapbox tournament Joe, you certainly
came on strong the last week or so. UCLA handed Arkansas their heads,
I've never seen Corliss Williamson and Scotty Thurman have such lousy
games at the same time. I'm sure next year will be even more wide
open than this years tournament. I'll just have to wait till next March
to see.

| 302.311 | | CSC32::J_OPPELT | Whatever happened to ADDATA? | Thu Apr 06 1995 17:12 | 4 |
| I see next year looking more like (what I consider) a traditional
NCAA tournament with the tried-and-true old-time big schools
dominating. North Carolina, Kentucky, UCLA, etc. It'll be the
1970's revisited!
|
| 302.312 | | CSOA1::LEECH | yawn | Thu Apr 06 1995 21:09 | 18 |
| Can UCLA get back to the final four without O'Bannon and their 7'
center?
If that freshmen plays as well next year as he did against
Arkansas, that will certainly help. Edney will be there, too, of
course.
Unless they recruit a good center and forward, they won't be repeating
next year, though. O'Bannon (player of the year) is a BIG loss. The
center is replacable (Big Country gave him lessons in the semi-finals),
though it is hard to replace senior experience that he brings with him.
Since UCLA was not a deep team to start with, I wonder what they will
do. Being national champs should boost recruitment, though. 8^)
It will be an interesting year.

>andy, why?
Well... I personally don't think they've played many competative
teams...
They've been playing to their competitions level too long, and yes,
they've been abale to rise to the occasion in the late going, but how
long can that last vs. the better teams??
|

|
| 302.324 | | ACISS1::BATTIS | pool shooting son of a gun | Mon Mar 04 1996 14:10 | 3 |
|
while UMass beat Kentucky in the 2 or 3rd game of the season, I'd
kinda doubt they could do it twice. Kentucky is loaded this year.
|
| 302.325 | | ACISS2::LEECH | Dia do bheatha. | Mon Mar 04 1996 17:11 | 9 |
| Judgeing by how the two teams have been playing the last half of the
season, I agree with you. I don't see UMass beating Kentucky. I don't
see many teams that are capable of beating Kentucky, even if Kentucky
only has an "average" performance. I do see several
teams that can hand UMass a defeat, however. Of this I will say no
more. 8^)

RE: Chris/Doc
An alternative is to create a text file in your account for a
long entry so that a system link doesn't blow the thing away
on you.
Does NOTES create NOTES*.TMP or .JOU or .TJL files when the
current session is dropped?

7 games down, and Glenn is alone in first place with 7 points.
I'll post the standings tomorrow morning after all of today's games
have been played. I'm showing 19 games to be played today - is that
right?

Deb,
I believe 16 games were played yesterday and another 16 today. 8
will be played Saturday and another 8 Sunday. The winners yesterday
were
East UMass, Stanford, Arkansas, Marquette
Midwest Kentucky, Va. Tech, Iowa State, Utah
Southeast UConn, East Mich, Miss State, Princeton (yea Ivies!)
West Syracuse, Drexel, Purdue, Georgia
One day down and I'm already dead in the water. The three "big" upsets
yesterday killed teams I had going 2-3 rounds. Drexel killed Memphis,
Princeton killed UCLA, and Arkansas killed Penn State. 1 day into a 17
day tournament and I'm gone.

I'm in Colorado. I worked until 5:30 MST. I had no way of knowing the scores. I
appeal to the SOAPBOX crowd. (Yea, that will do me alot of good :) )
I'd bitch more, if the prize was better. :)

the picks the way I would have done even if I didn't know the scores.....
.... Really!!! I mean I have UConn and Kentucky to go all the way to
the finals. Do you think I would have picked the other teams?

| Actually, my spoiler sheet is winning! (I know, I said this one didn't
have to count, I just thought I'd bring this up. 8^) )
I should have 14 instead of 13, as I was meaning to pick E.Mich on my
spoiler sheet (this was one of those games I wasn't sure what to do
with, so I was going to pick Duke on one sheet and E.Mich on the
other). I don't know how I missed this, other than perhaps brain
damage.
Princeton and Drexel I would never have picked, in any case.
(who the hell is Drexel, anyway? I had Memphis as one of my upset
teams- going to the third round on my spoiler sheet).
It wouldn't be too bad if Drexel could beat Syracuse, but they don't
have a snowball's chance in Hades of beating them.
GaK!

Well, my sheet is at home, but my husband can attest to
the fact that I completed it beforehand.
I've got 12 points. My husband has 10. The Penn State loss
could have hurt me badly, except that my husband had UCLA going
to the finals.

| Was anybody else foolish enough to pick Georgetown to win it all? Wanted to
ask this now, in case Missisippi Valley State plays the game of their life
tonight. It will be fun to see how they get their school name on their jerseys.
They will probably wimp out with MVS or sumpthin.

Uh-oh. I see that I made an error on my posting by reading the
brackets incorrectly - I picked both Cincinnati and UNC to win and
didn't choose a winner between Temple and Oklahoma.
These games haven't been played yet - please forgive me, but I've gotta
fix that!

| Drat! In my second spoiler sheet, I picked Arkansas and Loisville to go to
the Sweet 16. Unfortunately, I came to my senses and tossed this sheet
in the garbage can. Didn't see Arkansas getting by Marquette with 4
freshmen starters and their two best players gone.
Of course, I also had Indiana going to the Sweet 16 on this sheet, so
it's not like I would have been racking in the extra points. 8^)
From memory, the following teams advanced to the Sweet 16:
Arkansas (lowest seed to advance)
Louisville
UMass
Wake Forest (in an exciting game with Texas)
Cincinnati
UConn
Kansas
Arizona
Kentucky
Texas Tech
Georgia
Utah
Miss. St.
Syracuse
Georgetown
Georgia Tech
I didn't bring in my sheets today, so I can't vouch for the accuracy of
my memory. I think these are correct.
I'm doing pretty good on my spoiler sheet. On one side of it, I am 16
for 16 in first round games...too bad I didn't fare as well on the other
side. 8^)

| The most interesting matchup, IMO, will be the Texas Tech Georgetown
game. They are both very quick teams...should be an up and down, high
scoring game. I like fast-paced games, I do.
Another possibly interesting match-up is the Arkansas UMass game.
Arkansas may not be experienced, but they are very quick. UMass has
more experienced talent, and of course, Camby- who I feel will be a
major factor in the game. Robinson will have to have a very good game,
and they will have to shoot well from 3-pt. land to stay in an
offensive battle with UMass.
I'm not sure how to call the Cincinnati game...depends on which
Cincinnati team shows up.

doesn't first. Kansas and Kentucky have been impressive. Texas Tech
blew Carolina out of the building, Georgetown better beware.

If Miss St. and Georgia Tech both win, my standing in the pool will

Georgetown (if TT had played smart in the second half, they would have
won, IMO)
UMass (anyone catch the score in this game?)
Wake Forest (by a hair)
Kentucky (who made Utah look like a high school team)
Yippie! I'm 4 for 4 on that side of my sheet (on both sheets).
Tonight is my do or die night. This side of my sheet is where I've
picked the upsets (Miss. St. over UConn, and GT over Cincinnati) on my
spoiler sheet. Of course, should the upsets not happen, I still have
my main sheet, where I picked Cin. and UConn, but I doubt this will
help me much since most everyone esle picked these teams, too (at least
in the pool here).

Leech claimed the same thing about UMASS with Arkansas. And then we
heard that Georgetown would beat 'em. I think some of you guys won't
respect UMASS until after they win the whole thing- and even then I
think some of you guys will find reasons to claim someone else is
better. Having the best record in the country wasn't enough. Beating
Kentucky in their previous head to head matchup wasn't enough. No
matter what, it won't be enough.

well doc, I watch college hoops all during the year, and while I think
UMass is a great team, they are not better than Kentucky. They beat
Kentucky in the 2nd or 3rd game of the season. This time of year it's
the hottest team that wins, period. Kentucky looks by far the best
of this tournament. so, with that said, Kentucky will beat UMass next
weekend, end of story.

What? You miss my smiley on that comment? For the record, I did not
think Arkasas was going to win that game. I did think they had an
honest shot to go to the sweet 16, but no farther.
Actually, I was teasing Oph when I said Arkansas was going to beat
UMass. I did think Arkansas would give them a better game than they
did, however.
In any case, if UMass manages to beat both Georgetown (and after seeing
both teams play last night, I think this is a possibility) AND
Kentucky, well, I'll give them credit where credit is due.
I *am* rootin' for 'em to beat Georgetown.

| >well doc, I watch college hoops all during the year, and while I think

It remains to be seen whether they will get to play Kentucky, much
less beat them. Nonetheless, it seems to me that Kentucky is playing
extremely well in an obvious way (they are blowing out their
opponents). UMASS, on the other hand, didn't really look all that good,
yet they still put a whupping on Arkansas. UMASS seems to be one of
those teams that plays better than they look. They are a sneak up on ya
kind of team. They are also prone to playing to the level of their
competition- which means when they play a crummy team they slack off a
bit until crunch time when they do enough to win. This is dangerous, of
course, in a 1 and out tourney. Kentucky is much different in that they
come out for blood every time, regardless of the level of their
opponent. This leads to big wins over lesser teams. The only downside
to this is that in a close game, they might have a slight
psychological disadvantage in that they are not used to having to come
from behind, and it may shake their confidence to be behind in the 2nd
half. We'll see. Kentucky is definitely hot right now, but I think it's
too early to be crowning them champs. It only takes one "off" game, one
time when you look beyond the current opponent to get the vacation.
|
| 302.478 | | ACISS2::LEECH | Dia do bheatha. | Fri Mar 22 1996 14:14 | 11 |
| Kentucky can have an "off" game and still beat Wake, though. I would
like to see a Kentucky/UMass semi-final game, even had I not picked
them both to be in the final 4.
UMass may have beat Kentucky early in the season, but this is a
different Kentucky team today. I do think that they will play extra
hard to avenge their earlier loss to UMAss, should these two teams play
each other in the semi-final.

well doc, you pretty much hit it on the head. I hope Kentucky learned
it's lesson from the Miss St game. like you said if it's close, or
their behind, they tend to panic. UMass looked good last night, and
I hope they beat Georgetown. I picked UMass for my final 4. I don't
get to see them that often, but I have liked what I have seen. Marcus
Camby is definitely their top player. He will need to be at his best
Saturday to counter balance Georgetown's big men. I think UMass
and Kentucky will meet next Saturday for the chance to go to the big
dance.

1) Go, cute little antelope!! You can outrun him!!
2) Come on, cheetah ... go!! Are you a man or a boy?!?! Let

it was tongue-in-cheek. she was claiming to be testosterone-
impaired, presumably due to her lack of interest in sports.
that line of thinking should, one would think, mean that
she probably considers beating other people up to be a
testosterone-motivated thing as well. but she likes the fights.
they're "cool". that didn't jibe.

| I've got to share a true story...
My wife's hair dresser in Amherst, Mass is a local character
named Silvio. Very flambouant, from Italy, dresses like all get out.
She's been going to him for about 15 years, has our kids hair
cut there, etc.
We were out to dinner last fall at a real nice Italian restaurant
and she says 'Oh, there's Silvio'. When we're done eating we
went over to say Hi...I had never met him, but heard LOTS of Silvio
stories. He's eating with a few other people, a couple and a single
guy. We stood and chatted for about 10 minutes and they all seemed
to be smiling about some joke that was going on that we weren't
aware of. We finally said goodby and left.
About two weeks later she was getting her hair cut again and
Silvio said 'how nice to see you', etc. etc. And then he shared
the joke.
Silvio is a LONG time friend of John Callipari, the Umass coach.
He has access to tickets (through John) to tickets to Umass games and also
occasionally gets a basketball signed by all the players that might
be raffled off at local charities. That night Silvio and John Callipari
had gone out to dinner with the coach of the other team Umass was
playing. All night long, people came walking up to their table
to say hello and EVERYTIME it was someone who recognized Silvio
and came over to chat....and NO ONE recognized John Callipari even once.
Many people came up and thanked Silvio for tickets he had gotten them
to the Umass games. The other coach was in stitches......Now we
know who's famous in Amherst, John! Everytime someone would approach
their table, John would sit right up straight and expect to have
his autograph requested....and everytime it would be someone recognizing
Silvio. I guess it was quite a joke all night.

| Wow! Did you catch the Syracuse/Georgia game? Nice last second basket
to tie the game.
I think I'm at 65 points and that's where I'm going to end up unless
Kentucky keeps it going. UConn and Georgetown blew it, but I think most
of us picked them to go to the Final Four. I'd like to see a
Syracuse/Kentucky final.

UMass just kicked Georgetown's a** this past Saturday. I'm glad I
picked them to beat Georgetown. In the Midwest and Southest regionals
I was close to perfection. The West and East regionals, however were
not exactly good to me. The real NCAA championship will be played at
7:07 CST, when Kentucky and UMass square off. The winner of that game
will win it all. Although I see an all SEC final in the making. Miss
St looked great in defeating Cincinnati, and should handle Syracuse
no problem. They are physical and fast, a nice combination to have,
plus great guards. UMass deserves their no 1 ranking, they spanked
a good Georgetown team soundly. Can't wait for this Saturday.
|
| 302.520 | | WAHOO::LEVESQUE | contents under pressure | Mon Mar 25 1996 11:15 | 15 |
| >Georgetown blew it
You make it sound like they didn't get hammered. UMASS crushed them.
It's not like they were close but made a blunder that cost them the
game. Georgetown had one decent run lead by some good shooting by
Iverson in the first half, and UMASS answered and then some. They won
going away. They put on a defensive clinic in the 2nd half, holding
Iverson to a whopping 6 points (after he scored 17 in the first half)
and Georgetown was allowed no inside game whatsoever when Camby was in
the game.
I've gotta agree with Battis; the championship will be held on
saturday. You've gotta wonder why they put Kentucky and UMASS in the
same bracket. Stupid, stupid, stupid. I think they are clearly the best
two teams in the country, and have been all season.

| Doc has the right of it. UMass outplayed Georgetown, period.
My spoiler sheet is doing pretty well, even though Kansas blew it.
They should have given up on their 3-pt shots early on, but they kept
tossing up bricks (2 for 23 or some such). Had they hit just 20% of
their 3's (most of which were open shots), they would have won
handily. Had they won, I would have been 4 for 4 in my final 4 picks
(spoiler sheet- the other sheet is dead), and would have taken a
commanding lead in pool the here.
Not only could they not hit 3's, but they must have missed 12 layups in
that game. Truly an astoundingly bad performance; it was amazing that
they were even in the game at the end.
I found the officiating to be less than even-handed, though I'm not
sure it made much of a difference. Kansas couldn't hit much of
anything, and that was what lost them the game.

GO KENTUCKY!!!
Syracuse really hurt my sheet. Had Kansas won, I would have taken over
1st by a good margin, and would only need Kentucky to win one more game to
insure my victory.
Oh well, at least I'm in the running with the favored team as my
remaining pick. Could be a lot worse. 8^)
As a side note, I will be rootin' for Miss. St. to beat Syracuse, even
though the outcome of this game matters not one iota in the pool.
[Everyone is dead in the water on that side of the sheet.] I would
like to see an all SEC final game. This should prove the need to
revamp the ratings a bit. Big 10 is rated too high (as their quick
mass-exodus from the tourney proved), and the SEC is rated far below what
it should be (two sweet 16 teams and two final 4 teams).

My "spoiler" sheet, however, is not doing too bad with 94 points. Of

that game...a 16 pt. turnaround in the standings, since the first place
guy picked Syracuse).
As it stands, I'm in second- first place has 105 pts, but he picked UC to
go all the way. He has Kentucky going to the final game, too, thus I
need Kentucky to win both games for me to win the pool.

Glen, it is a very large spread considering UMass is the number 1
ranked team in the country. Kentucky is number 2. point spread should
have been 2-3 maximum.

it's down to my brother and another guy, out of the pool of 25
players they were in. so they decided to split the pot now, so
that they can both root for UMass (my brother has UMass). i
thought that was quite sporting of them. oh yes.

| That's crazy because we don't have the kind of money that puts such a
purchase within the realm of possibility. If you had more money than
you could ever possibly spend, if money were truly no object, then it
would be worth it. Think of it this way, if it would be worth $10 a
ticket for you to see the game, then that's the same thing as $4000 a
ticket for someone with 400 times your disposable income.

| 302.628 | | DPE1::ARMSTRONG | | Fri Mar 29 1996 13:01 | 8 |
| Our local paper carried another complaint about tickets.
Of the tickets that UMass gets for the game, about 500 were
allocated to season ticket holders. these are offered first to
those who have contributed the most to UMass and other considerations.
One requirement for purchasing the tickets (at $35 per game for
4 games) is that you must also purchase 4 nights in the NCAA hotel
at about $200 per night. So going to these games adds up to
serious change!

| Well, UMASS fell. Bummer. They didn't play particularly well, and still
had a chance to win when they got the Kentucky lead from 15 down to 3
with a couple minutes remaining. In the end, they couldn't make the big
plays, and Kentucky has the right to pummel Syracuse (Syracuse?) in
tonights championship game. UMASS showed a lot of heart on saturday.

|
| 302.644 | | ACISS2::LEECH | Go Kentucky!! | Mon Apr 01 1996 13:09 | 32 |
| Kentucky/UMass was a good game. I thought it was all but over when
Kentucky took a 15 point lead in the second half, but UMass wouldn't
quit. They have a lot of grit, hanging in there when it was looking
like a blowout in the making. They were in it to the end. Only an
awesome Kentucky defense (and some KEY free throws) gave the Wildcats
the W.
I was about ready to pull my hair out when UMass brought it within 3
with just over a minute to go. What is it they say...a pressing team
does not like to be pressed? UMass caused some turnovers with their
press to get back into the game...I thought Kentucky was going to
buckle under the press, but after it got REAL close, they took care of
the ball. Good thing, too, or they would have lost.
I give UMass a lot of credit for coming back (again and again), they
are a very good ball club.
I was a bit disappointed with the Syracuse/Miss. St. game, however
(though not because it hurt my pool standings in any way...it didn't
8^) ). I was not expecting the sloppy play I saw from a ball club that
played so well against UConn and UC. I was not expecting a defense
that kept these two excellent ball clubs to 35% shooting or worse, to
allow Syracuse to shoot over 50%. I was not expecting 19 turnovers in
the first half, nor the lack of a patient offense (when they were
certainly patient in the previously mentioned games).
They were lucky to even be in the game the way they played...I wonder
if they took Syracuse seriously or not? Anyway, cudos to Syracuse for
executing their game plan well.
I wonder what the point spread will be in the final game?

| <--- No, not too bad at all. If the same Kentucky from last night would
have played UMass, I would not be winner of this year's pool. 8^)
They shot 3's okay, but that's about it. Kentucky really looked bad
for most of the game. Their defense was only good in spurts, too.
I'm really surprised that Kentucky wasn't sharper than they were in THE
championship game. I wonder if they took Syracuse seriously? Shades
of Houston/NC State...Houston was by far the better team, but they
didn't show up in the championship game. Kentucky was JUST good enough
to win, unlike the 1983 Houston team, who lost in the last few seconds.
Syracuse played well, though. Gotta give them some credit for keeping
it a close game. A well coached and gritty ball club.

Nope. NC State beat Houston to win the chapionship. Houston was far
superior, yet was taken out of their game by some excellent coaching
and execution on the part of NC State.
Now, I'm pretty sure it was 1983, but it could have been 1984, I
suppose (but I don't think so). I remember watching this game, in any
case. 8^)

My spoiler sheet is posted in here. Since it was my second entry (I
entered both sheets in the local pool, so I thought I'd enter both
here), I said it didn't really have to count.
A "spoiler" sheet is a pool sheet that I enter every year in which I
pick what I think are likely upsets that I was hesitant to pick on my
main sheet (like Miss. St. going to the final 4...I thought it a
distinct possibility, but not a likely reality).
I nearly didn't enter a second sheet this year...glad I changed my
mind. 8^)d

That's what I thought it was.
That explained, why not just enter a sheet for every possible
outcome? Then you're guaranteed to win the pool.

No hedging...I lost the pool here in the 'box fair and square. I did
enter both of the sheets posted here, in the local pool (I usually enter
two sheets each year). Battis is the winner here, but I won where it
counts. I am a tad richer today, I am, and quite happy about it. 8^)

Because it's $5 per sheet to enter, that's why. There comes a point of
diminishing returns quite quickly. 8^) Two sheets is the most I ever
enter, in any case.
I just wanted Mark to know that my spoiler sheet won big...even though
it doesn't count. 8^)
|
| 302.691 | | BUSY::SLABOUNTY | GTI 16V - dust thy neighbor!! | Tue Apr 02 1996 18:57 | 13 |

Yes, $5/sheet puts quite a damper on that idea.
Or does it? Do you win the entire pot if you win? If so,
let's say you put in W sheets at 5W dollars, and everyone
else puts in Y sheets at 5Y dollars. The pot is now at
5W + 5Y dollars. If you win, you get 5W + 5Y dollars,
which is everything. A tie would complicate it, though,
since it would reduce your winnings to 2.5W + 2.5Y dollars,
so you'd have to be the last 1 to enter your sheets and
make sure that you only submitted, max, 1/2 the total numb-
er of sheets to the pool.
|
| 302.692 | | BIGQ::SILVA | Mr. Logo | Tue Apr 02 1996 19:01 | 8 |

I wonder is Steve uses a spoiler Constitution and Bill of Rights like
he does for the Basketball Tournament? It might explain why we can't figure him
out in those topics, either.

The winnings are split as follows:
1st place: 50%
2nd place: 30%
3rd place: 20%
You reach a point of diminishing returns pretty fast. Two sheets
is plenty.

| Steve was correct about the 1983 NCAA final. NC State defeated Houston
54-52. It was North Carolina that defeated Georgetown 63-62 in 1982. As
an extra bonus Georgetown defeated Houston 84-75 in 1984. I should know
better than to doubt Steve when it comes to the NCAA tourney. Of course
it could be that I'm 45 now and have developed brain dislexia. :)

course, steve will find some way to short change my coming

least 7-8 teams with legitimate shots at going all the way.

| Well, Battis, you will have a good chance at winning this year, as I
have not watched too many NCAA games lately. I know who the best teams
are supposed to be, but not much more. There are MANY wildcards this
year, which should make picking the first couple of brackets
interesting.
Even the best teams have their weaknesses this year.
Anyone have the current top 25 list they are willing to post? Been
ages since I've seen one (and the local sportscaster geeks only show
the top 10 + local teams, which annoys me greatly).

| Don't worry, mine will be in... just before the big dance starts. 8^)
Games don't start until Thursday, noon.
If you want me to keep score, I can. I've got my Excel spreadsheet
completed (the guy who kept up with the pool last year is no longer
with DEC, so I thought I would create one... just in case). I can mail
the sheet to everyone who has Exchange, if anyone has the need (or I
can send the final tabulations to participants of the box pool via
Exchange in this manner).
Excel can be quite useful. 8^)

>This is the official Soapbox NCAA pool topic now. This
>pool will be based on the points system. The points are
> 1 - 2 - 4 - 8 - 12 - 16
>by round respectively. This gives all who don't pick

| I expect a lot of boxers to participate this year. DO NOT disappoint
me. There is no charge to enter, just fill the sheet out. All have
an equal opportunity to win the pool. I think we ought to have a prize
for 1st place. Maybe, a Soapbox coffee mug or a cheeseburger from the
vending machine. Ok, get those picks in, I need my burger.

official scorekeeper since he has already gone to the trouble of
creating the Excel spreadsheet.

Hey! That's no fair... I'll have to change several formulas in my
spreadsheet!
And no points for picking the winner? How about 32 points (rather than
the usual 64 points)? Or better yet, why not score the box pool like
most every other pool in America is scored? (then I wouldn't have to
alter my spreadsheet 8^) )
Let's take a vote!

steve forgrt the 32 point rule. The judges points are used for most
pools. Besides, you should get more points for picking the champion,
that's the whole idea.

Are you talking about Marcus Camby? I wouldn't say he has got off to a
very auspicious start with the Raptors. The guy is hurt every other
game and I think his team-mates are starting to think of him as some
kind of wuss. Damon plays *through* the pain!

Camby had a tough time in college with physical centers. Didn't bode
well for him in the NBA.
UMass got a nice draw. They will have to start with an upset but
given their record I think they got a big break. I would not have
picked them against Michigan which didn't make the cut.

person who got a Digitally provided HMO to pay.
All of this reminds me of Uncle Bonsai's song "Penis Envy."
Penis Envy
by Uncle Bonsai
If I had a penis I'd wear it outside
In cafes and carlots with pomp and with pride
If I had a penis I'd pamper it proper
I'd stay in the tub and use me as a stopper
If I had a penis I'd take it to parties
Stretch it and stroke it and shove it at smarties
I'd take it to pet shows and teach it to stay
I'd stuff it in turkeys on thanksgiving day
I'd rival my buddies in sportscars and stickshifts
I'd shower my spire with girlies and gifts
I'd peek around corners
I'd aim at my toilet
I'd poke it at foreigners
And soap it and oil it
If I had a penis I'd run to my mother
Comb out the hair and compare it to brother
I'd lance her, I'd knight her, my hands would endulge
Pants would seem tighter and buckle and bulge
(chorus)
A penis to plunder, a penis to push
Cause one in the hand is worth one in the bush
A penis to love me, a penis to share...
To pick up and play with when nobody's there
I'd sit like a guy, I'd straddle the chair
I'd play with my fly, albeit with care
I'd dip it in chocolate, I'd stick it in sockets
Go to the movies with hands deep in pockets
I'd stick it in vacuums on vacant verandas
Gas-guzzling bottles and poodles and pandas
And puddles and drain pipes and doggies and ditches,
Poolhalls and potholes and bottles and bitches...
Zucchinies and zebras, tomatoes, tomatoes,
And pineapple pumpkins, and gulches and grottos,
And melons and marshmallows...
Gloves and gorillas
Slurpies and slippers
Chinooks and chinchillas...
(chorus)
If I had a penis, I'd climb every mountain
I'd force it on females
I'd pee like a fountain...
If I had a penis I'd still be a girl,
But I'd make much more money and conquer the world.

The action starts in 3 and 1/2 hours. Waiting to see bugman's picks.
He's slaved over them for days. My guess is that debra will beat
Steve and wind up in the top 3.

| We're half way through the first round of action, and here is the list
of teams advancing to the next round.
In the West:
Kentucky (gave Montana a severe thrashing)
Iowa (a solid win vs. Virginia)
Boston College (didn't get to see any of this game)
St. Joe's (ditto)
In the Midwest:
Iowa St. (fended off a feisty Ill. St. team... so much for that
upset pick 8^) )
Cincinnati (crushed Butler early, but got lazy in the second half)
Xavier (didn't get to watch this one)
UCLA (soundly thrashed Charleston So.)
In the East:
North Carolina (squeaked by Fairfield... and I do mean squeaked -
Fairfield had a decent shot of winning this game)
Colorado (sent Indiana packing... they are a very explosive team)
California (just barely beat Princeton... another upset pick gone awry)
Villanova
In the Southeast:
Kansas (down in the early goings, but came back strong)
Purdue (wins in OT vs. a fast RI team)
Coll. of Charleston (this team is for real)
Arizona (my upset pick lead the game, having as much as a 10-pt. lead
at one time, until the last 2.5 minutes. They had a good game
plan, but in the end, could not handle Arizona's press)
That's it for now sportsfans. I'm not doing too well. I made good
choices in my upset picks, at least when you look at the games... they
all could have (and two of them *should have*) won. None were blown
out. And for the record, I don't view Coll. of Charleston's victory as
an upset. They are ranked higher in the API poll than Maryland, and
have one of the best records in the nation. I think they are out to
prove that they deserve their national ranking.

Jennison - 13
Leech - 11
Levesque - 12

Mr. Bill - 9 (tied for last... your Fairfield upset pick wasn't

Mz_Debra - 11 (Princeton let us both down, eh?)
Richardson - 12
Silva - 13 (UMass going to the final 4??(!), not bloody likely)
Yannekis - 12
Interesting matchups for next round:
Xavier vs. UCLA. Xavier has always been a tourney spoiler... just ask
Georgetown. Never bet against this team in the first round. This
year, they are ranked, and dangerous (just ask Cincinnati). This could
be an upset in the making (I nearly picked this on my sheet, actually,
but decided to go with the odds).
Colorado vs. NC. NC struggled with Fairfield. Colorado looked very
solid against Indiana - a very explosive team. They could pull an
upset here.
College of Charleston vs. Arizona. They both like to keep the tempo
up, so it will be a matter of who executes the best, or who has
the least number of turnovers. This one could go either way. My pick
is Coll. of Charleston on the sheet, and I think they can win.

| Miami made a valliant effort in the last couple of minutes over a much
larger Clemson squad, but it was too little too late. I give them a
lot of credit for overcoming what I thought was an insurmountable lead
by a larger and more physical team.
There's about 40 seconds left, but Miami is down 8 and has put Clemson
on the line. Stick a fork in 'em.
In a big surprise, Tenn-Chatt was creaming Georgia into the second
half. Georgia has come back, though, and has a chance to win. Go
Georgia!

Butkovich - 52
Levesque - 52

EYOUNG - 51

Jennison - 50

Leech - 47
Lortie - 40
Silva - 39
Mr. Bill - 36 (too bad your Iowa St. pick didn't pan out... I was
rootin' for 'em)
UCLA bit the bullet last night, with a 1-pt. win in OT with Iowa St.
Even though I picked UCLA in the boxpool (and in one of my sheets in
the office pool), I was rootin' for Iowa St. One sheet in the office
pool isn't doing too bad, but I picked Cincy in that bracket to go to
the final 4 (a dumb move, Cincy hasn't beat a ranked team all year).
If Iowa St. had won, and then gone on to knock off the yellow gofers in
the next round, everyone else's sheet would have been dead in that
particular bracket. Oh well. I lose ground no matter what, now.
Iowa St. blew a nice lead early in the second half. In fact, it took
them only a couple minutes of game time to lose a 13 point lead. I
missed the end of this game, and I'm glad I did.
Kentucky had absolutely no problem with St. Joe's.
Utah/Stanford game went into OT... what a great game! Utah played OT
without three starters (who fouled out - including VanHorn), but
managed to win. Stanford is a lot better team that I thought. Never
really heard much about them over the last year.
Minn. squeaked by Clemson in double OT. Clemson was down in
regulation, but made a great run at the end of the game to bring it
within 2, and a last second shot tied the game, sending it into OT.
I thought they were going to win it in the first OT, but squandered a 6
point lead when they tried to milk the clock too early. Had they just
kept playing, they likely would have won the game. It looked like they
had nothing left in the second OT... they looked terrible.
I was really hoping Minn. would get knocked off, it really would have
helped my standings. Now, I'll probably drop in the office pool.
Grr... (I'll never pick UC to go farther than the second round again).
Oh how I wish I had turned in my original sheet this year... <kick,

Thanks Clemson! Thanks Iowa St.! <grumble, spit, fume, whine> I
would have held my ground had these two teams won, and would have been
in a great position to at least place in the pool. Instead, I lose 8
points this round, and another 8 points next round in ONE lousy bracket
alone. Stick a fork in me, I'm done.
The only chance I have now is with my spoiler sheet (which moved up to
mid-pack after last night). This means that Utah must beat Kentucky,
UCLA must beat the golden goobers, NC must get beat, and Kansas
has to win... then I *might* (it's a longshot) sneak into 3rd.
Not to use hindsight to beat myself up or anything, but if I had simply
turned in the very first sheet I filled out, I would be in the lead by
several points. Grr... <stupid stupid stupid>

a bunch of goobers most of the game (good comeback, but not quite
enough). If they could have sank a few shots, they would have had a
chance. I've never been completely out of a pool so soon (even my
original sheet that I keep crowing about wouldn't place, now).
Here are the latest soapbox pool standings...
Mz_Debra takes the lead with 85 points (too bad she picked Kansas to
win... her only chance now is if Minn. takes it all).
Richardson is tied for second with Yannekis - both at 80 points
(Yannekis is in good shape to win the pool, though, since both of his
finalists are still alive).

well, it's down to the two best teams. Kentucky and Arizona. I think
Kentucky will win by 7.

| Kentucky goes down in flames... poor shooting ended up biting them in
the bum. They managed to get away with it playing Minn., but Arizona
had their number.
Heck, I had Arizona going out in the first round on one of my sheets
(and they nearly did go out, too, against S. Alabama).
Congrats to Mz_Debra, who is the new Soapbox March Madness Pool winner.
It was a wild tourney...

what a championship game last night!!! Arizona played fantastic. hated
to see either team lose.
|
| 302.908 | congrats to the new National Champions and Mz_Debra! | WAHOO::LEVESQUE | Spott Itj | Tue Apr 01 1997 12:52 | 8 |
| Kentucky can thank their inability to sink a free throw coupled with
Arizona's inability to miss a free throw for their loss last night.
If I were Pitino, Mohammed would be practicing free throws for a long,
long time.
Arizona outhustled Kentucky. How many times did Kentucky make a steal
or block a shot only to lose the ball back to Arizona and Arizona would
score every time.

Mz_Debra, congratulations on winning the soapbox pool. You did great.
|
| 302.910 | | ACISS2::LEECH | Terminal Philosophy | Tue Apr 01 1997 13:03 | 22 |
| Arizona must have had nearly half of their points via the charity
stripe. Mohammed went 0 for 6 on the line... which was detrimental to
the team. Of course, he played an excellent game outside this and a
few missed layups.
Kentucky finally ran into a team that is faster than they are. I was
wondering if this would give them problems, since they depend so much
on their press. I told my dad the other night that Arizona had a good
chance of beating them (though I wouldn't have put money on it 8^) )
due to this factor, and the fact that Kentucky was really beat up by
Minn.
In a big game like this, you expect your star player to step up... in
this case, neither key scorers stepped up for either team. Mercier was
nearly a non-factor. He's got talent, but he's going to have to learn
how to take abuse in the paint and still keep his composure. He has
his work cut out for him in the NBA.
While I was rootin' for Kentucky, it is kind of nice to see someone new
win the championship. I've always had a weak spot for the underdog.
It was a great game... both teams gave it all they had.

| Hate to have to say it, but Pitino was out-coached. When it became
obvious that the press was not going to bother Arizona, and at the same
time that the Kentucky players were running out of gas; you have to
adjust and go to a half court defense.
Give credit to Lute Olsen!!

For the second year in a row, I beat my husband in
the brackets. He owes me dinner !
This is going to be tricky, though. He now owes me two
dinners, as we didn't get to go on our date Saturday night
because Emily had a fever. Next weekend is his birthday,
so I can't make him take me out then. By the time I
collect, it'll be winter again!
