I basically took a 4-day weekend to watch the first and second round of the NCAA tournament, the first two days of which were largely spent at a bar down in Fairfax, VA.  While I could go into great detail about the games, I found a quote from ESPN columnist Bill Simmons that pretty accurately sums it up:

"Nothing unites basketball fans like hanging out in a bar and rooting against Duke."

In addition to the Duke/Belmont game, the Western Kentucky/Drake was one of the best in recent tournament memory, and it was absolute pandemonium when WKU hit the impossible buzzer beater in OT.  Unfortunately, local team George Mason was out of their game within a few minutes of tip-off.  Nonetheless, quite a fun weekend of great basketball. 

I love March Madness!  Best sporting event of the year, for sure.

M-A-R-Y-L-A-N-D, Maryland will win!?....Oh......

Maryland is out of the NIT!!!! Aaarrrrggghhh!!!!

 

Well, I hate Duke (Euphamistically speaking of course) so I think I'll just enjoy the rest of the tournament.

 

You were right, that davidson game was tight!!!!!

 

It should be interesting but there are four No. 1's left.  I'm guessing UCLA but, one never knows.

Ooops!  You didn't say Davidson, you said Western Kentucky!  I did see the last few minutes of it and it was nice.

Better than the superbowl? I guess since your FRONT running team didn't win, March Madness must now take its place eh? I'd throw a vote in for the Olympics, as far as best sporting event of the year (for 2008 at least).

Lastly. Are you single?

Re: My NCAA Tourney Weekend
Yes, better than the Super Bowl, because it last 3 weeks and not 3 hours.  And yes, I am single, WINK
