March Madness

Our grandkids have a room at our house and I just spotted this on a shelf with other toys.

Everyone in Tucson is wearing their UA gear today. Excitement is in the air!

Good luck to all the teams playing!

I think two of the happiest days of my entire life were the two days I spent at the tourney last year.

My bracket is a mess and I LOVE it. I pick who I think will win and always hope I'm wrong, because I love a good bracket buster. Except when it's my team, of course. I was cursing Marquette last night for not playing that poorly on Sunday when they beat my boys!

I think it's awesome that the only Final Four team left from last year is BUTLER.

And I always cheer for Cinderella, so go VCU

HUGE UNC FAN HERE! I am quite happy that we have gotten this far in the tourney, and am really looking forward to the next couple of years of Carolina Basketball!

LOVING MARCH MADNESS!!

UConn just finds way to win this year, great game! Not sure if I want UK or UNC next.

 

[LuvCuteBoys]

Awesome games! This has been a wildly entertaining tourney. And I love it when the top seeds get knocked out. GO VCU!!!!

Lexington is going crazy right now... Final Four, baby!!! GO CATS!!

It's been a great tournament this year.

The Buckeyes lost so all is sad in Cow Town. I was rooting for the Noles too so just nothing is going well around here. Both games were amazing. It shows how well the brackets were set up originally. Now I'm cheering for Arizona.

Can I talk you into being a VCU fan?!

I live 4 blocks from the BUTLER campus and helped welcome the boys back at 2am!

What an incredible Final Four!

All of the number 1 seeds are out.

Butler, who was dead in the water a couple of months ago, is headed to back-to-back Final Fours!

Kentucky, and UConn are both teams who have had past glory, and are looking to recapture it.

And Virginia Commonwealth? They didn't even think they were going to "The Big Dance" and didn't bother to watch Selection Sunday!

I'm looking forward to this weekend!

And I have to cheer for Butler, having lived in Indianapolis for 4 years!

DS drove with his SD friends to Vegas for the long weekend to meet up with all his east coast college alum's to watch all the games over the weekend. He has changed his FB profile pic to a pic of a WINNING t-shirt of Charlie Sheen's (nothing to do with CS) but everything to do with winning 4 bets out of 5.
The bet he lost was he took Arizona over UConn as his Dad is a UConn grad and before DS left he asked DH to place bets on the UConn game.

His winnings paid for his 3 day weekend in Vegas!!!!!

U...C...O...N...N, UConn, UConn, Uconn!!

Every year, I wonder why there is never any discussion about March Madness on this board, or any sports for that matter. Rarely do I ever see anybody post or have any meaningful or lasting sports conversations. Aren't there any fans in the DIS community?!?

We had a NCAA football thread going on back during the season.

We have(had) a poster who is dad(?) to Norte Dames Skylar Diggins. Who by the way is an amazing player. Posted quite a bit last year, but haven't seen anything outta them this year.

Baseball season is getting ready to gear up and the Yankee and Red Sox fans will be out pretty soon. Someone just started a thread last week about opening day only being so many days away. Threads will pop up here and there, but I don't ever recall a single thread that goes from the training season thru to the world series, super bowl, stanley cup. It's just not the community boards style. Another board I belong to has an entire site that is strickly sports. Anything and everything sports related is open game there.

Love March Madness! College bball is so much more fun to watch than NBA.

I thought someone on here used to form a group in one of the pools (maybe ESPN). But they haven't done it lately, so I do my brackets in a group on another discussion board.

I do believe the guy who use to start up and run the bracket board, was one of those that got uninvited to post here a couple of years ago. I know several of those that played in the bracket and were very active in the acutal time discussions, were also uninvited at the same time. I don't think anybody has stepped up to head it up like he had.

Good job being out there to welcome them back. I can't believe that they are going two straight years. We had a blast downtown last year before the Saturday games with all the Butler fans and Final 4 stuff going on.

Hope they call pull it off against VCU....

Go Dawgs!!

That's awesome!

Well, everyone here was cheering for Arizona. It was a close game, but they just didn't make it. Congrats to UConn!
