I sure wish the refs would quit deep throating Roy Williams long enough for Georgetown to have a fighting chance! This game is my bracket's last stand.

Yeah, that Tarheel choke job cost me a chance at winning. I guess I'm now in the "anyone but Promethium" camp.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Were it not for that garbage 3 with mere seconds left, the headline could have read "0-vertime!!!"

I've got 3 of 4 in the Final Four, including both championship game combatants. If Calipari was worth a shit, I'd have gotten all four. Where'sJohn Chaney to beat his ass?

I feel bad for Chase, though. Bro had more than a bracket riding on this one. Oh, well, it's not like UNC doesn't already have a ton of other titles to get them through this tough loss.

Shouldn't Sleepy Floyd have a kid on this team?

Here's how the Obner brackets look going into the Final Four:

Fu and schadenfreude both have FLA, UCLA, OSU with FLA winning it all.
estone has FLA, UCLA, OSU and Georgetown with UCLA winning it all.
Dreaded Marco has UCLA and OSU, but had UNC winning it all.
I have FLA, UCLA and Georgetown with Georgetown winning it all.
Malachi has FLA, but had Nebraska winning it all (actually UNC).
paper has FLA, OSU and Georgetown, but had Kansas winning it all.
Stop Breathin' has OSU with OSU winning it all.
thrillhouse has UCLA and OSU with OSU winning it all.
monty has UCLA, OSU and Georgetown with UCLA winning it all.

I'm the only one with Georgetown winning it all, but I'm quite a few points behind Fu and schadenfreude, so I'm not sure if I could win it even if TEH HOYAZ roll to victory.

By the way, props to estone for nailing the Final Four, and not taking the homer path of putting his Terps there.

The final game is worth 32 points Bob---if you're the only one with GT, you probably win.

Fucking North Carolina. Now I gotta have Ohio State beat Georgetown or I don't win.

…and I'm officially toast in my money bracket. Motherfuck.

That was a choke job worthy of Roy's KU teams. If it weren't for the fact that it was the actual team on the court that went colder than a witches' tit, I'd put the blame solely on his shoulders.

Let's just say this makes last night's massive KU bed shitting sit a little bit better.

I think UNC just flat ran out of gas; after the huge comeback and holding off Georgetown for most of the game, they were done. Notice all those prayers they were throwing up falling short.

Roy, by the way, did a fucking masterful job Friday, but you are right about today--its on the kids.

I hope they didn't run out of gas, considering they played 10 or 11 players in the game. But for some reason, when they had a lead of 10 with 8 minutes to go, they started settling for jumpshots - and bad ones at that. Might have been a good idea to get the ball inside to Wright or Hansbrough.

KU played a very good game. It's just that the design and execution of UCLA's defense totally forced KU out of their rhythm. I don't think people even understand basketball any more... if it isn't a streak of 3's and fast break acrobatics then it's "bed shitting."

I am also starting to hate the 3.

I for one totally "understand" the game of basketball...I just think that for KU, with a team like they had, anything short of the Final Four, and really The National Championship, is shitting the bed. I did see that UCLA played a different defense than they usually do, etc....I was more commenting on my expectations as a KU fan vis-a-vis their performance in the tourney as a whole, moreso than saying anything derogatory about UCLA.

The short distance college 3-pointer keeps the white man involved in the game.

Dang I should have gotten in this one. In one of my 4 ESPN brackets I had 7 of 8 Elite 8s (missed Memphis) and all 4 Final 4s. That one's only in 35000th place or something. :wink:

I'm pretty sure only Julian Wright doesn't understand basketball.

You don't need to worry about that, I crapped out hardcore this weekend with UNC and Kansas losing.
There's always next year, says this loser.

Best I can do is second, since e-stone has the exact same championship outcome as I. But I'd take it, as my best tourney pick 'em finish, ever.

Then again...
