Final Four
 
How about that after all the upsets and the incredible run by St Peter’s the last four standing are all blue bloods. NC, Kansas , Nova and the fighting Coach K’s! Who are you pulling for? Or really don’t care ? What say you?

Villanova--for personal reasons connected with their student newspaper.

Heartbreaking to see Justin Moore tear his achilles in the last game. He was all conference and will be missed. He is having surgery this week. I had the same injury playing the same sport in 1993. When the complete tear happened it felt like I was sliced with a machete where heel meets leg. I was drugged but awake for surgery with a spinal block to numb my lower half. Soft cast and crutches until the incision healed and then a hard cast for about 6 weeks. I played golf three days after the hard cast went on . Oh to be young again

Since you asked, I am one who really doesn't care.
Hope your team, whomever you choose, plays well and makes you proud.
👍👍

Would love to see Duke win. Wouldn’t that be a great way for Coach K go out?

A-2-56 03-29-2022 04:32 AM

“Yawn”
What is all this ruckus about. Is this something important? Hmmm, I think I will go outside and enjoy the gifts that God has provided us!

Kinda looks like the stars are aligning for that to happen. Kansas may have something to say about that though.

Duke will win because of all the bad officiating. :ohdear::ohdear: The officials will make sure he goes out with another championship...

:shocked::shocked:

Final Four
 
I am rooting for Duke because of Coach K. Good guy, from Chicago, and a Chicago Cub fan.

daca55 03-29-2022 06:28 AM

Kansas - need them in my bracket contest.

JCheatham62@gmail.com 03-29-2022 07:15 AM

Duke !!
 
My hubby and I are from Durham, NC ! Living in TV permanently since Dec 2021 and True Duke Fans. The Tobacco Road Rivalry of the “Blues” is the best.

Hoping Coach K and Team beat the “Tarholes” oops meant the “Tarheels”.

With that said Hubert Davis has done a great job coaching UNC.

woolman44 03-29-2022 07:37 AM

I agree the officiating has been suspect, very inconsistent.
But, the games have been exciting and competitive!
Big Ten had their usual collapse, far to much respect by the committee for that style of play.

Gac57 03-29-2022 08:29 AM

I agree. Yes I am a Ky. and Murray St. fan. They will get everything K wants. It started off with the region he wanted to play in.

Where I lived for 2 years in the Army-Go Kansas!!

Duke !!


Tried to get a neighborhood group to do a bracket...they didn't understand, didn't watch, or just not interested.

Soooo...we did a basketball pool (just like the football 100 square type) read about on line.
It's actually fun...you sell all your 100 squares...then divide the $ in ranking of rounds...example round one gets 2$ per win and has 32 winners, round 2 maybe 4$.
So people love this bc EVERY game has a winner...total of 63 winners.
After you fill the board you pull the numbers across the top...labeled winner score. And again pull for side- losing score. Same board used for all games and you read it just like fb boards.
Everybody loved it, every person has won and it keeps you in throughout the whole event.

Just thought I'd share.

Bjeanj 03-29-2022 03:33 PM

Yes, the pools help generate interest and excitement. My husband watches the games with his scores in the pool to watch.

I love watching these games. When you get to Sweet 16, you see very close games, amazing 3-pointers and heartbreakers and some great stories (St. Peter’s for example). Since all of my Indiana teams are out, as I said, I’d like to see Duke go all the way.

Wow you got smacked by St Peter’s twice

davem4616 03-29-2022 05:49 PM

I stopped watching this drama a few years ago

Then why bother to reply, if the subject is that sleep inducing?
