  • March Madness! Finally. Best time of the year. I'll start off with congratulating the College of Charleston for their first appearance in the tourney since 1999.

    waaaaaaay too much Power 5 mediocrity and not enough Cinderellas is the tourney.

    altho neither could win, would you rather see 20-11 ASU or 28-5 (guess) St. Mary’s. ASU, UCLA and OK were ridiculous inclusions along with some undeserving SEC trash.

    let’s hope ASU meets the same karma.....altho, against syracuse, it’s hard to say who is less deserving.
