Anyone else follow NCAA?

[Epi-hunter]

I am a basketball fan -- anyone else following the NCAA games? I 'trained' my 11 year old daughter as well and she watches with me and keeps track too. :)

After Missouri and Duke both lost tonight, I need to just tear up my brackets though :cheesysmile: but I don't think I am alone there :)

Thats awesome you watch basketball games with your daughter! #1 MOM!!! :yes:

Angie, my boss's father sits on the board of the Basketball Hall of Fame and every year he gets to go to the Final Four. Talk about connections.

The state Wisconsin has two teams in the sweet 16!! Go Wisconsin!! Go Marquette!! They both play Thursday night.

Nope :sleepy:

I like college round-ball, but there are just too many games to watch during the first round. I don't miss the final four if I can help it.

BTW: The casinos here are packed with basketball fans during the daytime. (Easy money at poker table)

UK!!!! GO BIG BLUE!!!!!!

UK!!!! GO BIG BLUE!!!!!!

I was starting to think I was the only one who followed it :shocked04:stretcher: It is my only sports thing (besides metal detecting).

Leroy, I have to say that I am not a huge UK basketball fan. (If I were to say that out loud anywhere in this state, I would be flogged, beaten, and boiled alive :shocked03: ). I have never seen such basketball fans in my life as are the UK fans here. It is insane.

In fact, of my three brackets, only one has UK even in the final four. :embarrassed: That was an objective decision based on their last three games before the NCAA began, which were less than impressive.

Not unless they can figure out a way to get the sound of an American Made, Heart Thumping, V8 into those sneakers!!!!! Hahahaha! :clapping: lol

Yes it is insane! We love our cats. Do not say anything out loud i would hate to see you beaten and flogged. We rarely boil anyone any more. Dont worry you stay here long enough and you to will bleed BLUE. At lest after today you will still have one bracket. GO BIG BLUE

[LEROY]

[del]

[Lowjiber]

[LEROY]

[size=24pt]GO BIG BLUE! GO BIG BLUE! GO BIG BLUE! GO BIG BLUE!

Yes, I'm a U.K. Wildcats fan but no, it's not me setting couches on fire and turning police cars over \:hammer: >:/

Ridiculous... I guess mostly the college kids here at U.K. ...polluting the air that my friends, family & children breathe in our city. >:#

Are you all seeing this on the news?

[Epi-hunter]

Yes, that level of insanity is just stupid. I am going to barricade myself in my house tomorrow night. 8/

Kentucky has a great basketball team but it's all based on reputation. None of the players have any roots in KY or any care about the state, except for its basketball reputation. In fact the reason the team is always freshmen-loaded is because they are recruited to the pros after their freshman year. Think Anthony Davis will be playing for the Wildcats next year? No....

So that's why I don't see it as loyalty... just fame and notoreity and not school or state loyalty. Ugggh....

Still, there is this... How to beat Kentucky.... an uphill task for Kansas (http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/mensbasketball/story/2012-04-01/How-to-beat-Kentucky-Kansas-has-uphill-task-in-NCAA-final/53935816/1)
