    Great second round game...when do Kentucky and Kansas play for the title? How can you be anything other than relieved as a Duke fan...this is embarassing. What a joke of a tourny, how much did Duke pay for their lame ass draw?

    outstanding game. I can only imagine what Gus Johnson would have sounded like if that last shot by Butler had gone in.

    this should have been a second round game that Gus announced not the title game. The committee fucked up big time, and I called it as it came out. SU, KU, and UK got screwed with tough draws, and Duke got the worst 2-16 teams to go against. This was basically a setup.

    64 other teams in this tournament ended their season with a loss ... not Duke.

    I was pulling for Butler, I don't like Duke, but they won ... quit being a bunch of "they don't deserve it", "this tournament is a joke" babies.

    They are the champs. Deal with it.

    If that shot went in, it would've gone down as one of the greatest upsets in college basketball history, like UConn over Duke in '99. In the worlds of Kalid El Amin, "We shocked the world!"

    What a surprise...a whiny, bitchy Red Sox fan. Butler beat Syracuse and went to the Championship you jackass. Nobody screwed them. WV beat UK and Duke beat WV. Nobody screwed them either.

    fyi, I am a Red Sox fan ... and I'm on the other side. No reason to throw that generalization into the mix.

    Now that basketball is over, time to move on to baseball.... Would have been nice to see Butler win though...
    If there were no Angels would there be no sin?

    Agreed 100%. Got to love the Dook lovers crawling out from their rocks this morning. I rank this one with their title from 2001. This one was a gift from the NCAA as far as their seeding went being by far in the easiest bracket. 'Nova, Baylor and Purdue as 2-4 seeds in their bracket? Come on? The NCAA needed Duke in the Final Four because they are in the process of putting together a new TV contract worth billions of dollars. They needed the ratings. The NCAA caught a huge break with Butlers great run. The ratings last night had to be huge.

    Oh well, good for Dook and their 3rd title. 2001 Arizona was the champ because they were basically robbed of that title by the refs.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.
