O's are Legends

Congrats to OHIO' date=' I really had big hopes for Georgetown but what can you do. College basketball is amazing. As a Georgetown fan, I really hope CBS and ESPN will shed light on the Bobcats and how well they played (give them major credit) vs. how Georgetown didn’t do this and how bad they played.[/quote']

Yeah, Ohio was just on fire today. Would have been tough for most teams to beat them.

Really wishing I had chosen OSU to beat GTown. LOL

You mean OHIO to beat Ohio State.:D

It’s starting to sink in, just can’t believe it. At least baseball season starts soon and there are many more great college basketball games coming up. Wow, Washington on the furious comeback.

Yeah, the way they shot the ball, not too many people could have hanged with the Bobcats today.

I can't believe Georgetown lost. I had them going to either the Elite 8 or sweet 16 in all of my brackets. I am so distraught. I should have seen it coming because they are so streaky, they can't play against the zone, and they aren't the best defensive team.

Not a bad day for me at all in my prize brackets. I had Georgetown losing to OH St in two brackets and losing to Tennessee in one. I didn't call the Vandy upset in any brackets but I had them losing in the 2nd round in every one. I was also rooting against Nova as I don't have them beyond the Sweet 16 in any bracket either.

I also had NIU in all 3 brackets and ODU and Washington in 2 out of 3 brackets. Only whiffed on St Marys as I did have Richmond in the Sweet 16 in one bracket.

Note: It's UNI, not NIU. NIU is Northern Illinois. Just an FYI.

I was taking with a friend earlier tonight, and posed this question:

Maryland fans-

Would you offer to have the Terps lose their first round game if it meant Duke losing to Arkansas-Pine Bluff and becoming the first one seed to ever lose?

I gotta think for most Terp fans that would be pretty tempting...

What happens if that is declined? Just the normal 1-16 blowout and Maryland taking their chances against Houston?

I wouldn't take it. I want to see Maryland go all the way. And not just because I have them winning the championship in my bracket(s).

Against Duke :P

I would hope no fan would take this.

No. I care much more about my team winning than my rival losing...

Now I'd gladly pay upwards of $50 to see dook lose to Ark Pine Bluff tomorrow...

    • Did we ? You can’t possibly know that. Apparently, Elias got a player he thought he could fix.  Sorry but I just don’t think Rogers is as good as Irvin with his diminished stuff. I think he’s essentially a throw away. It would be wise to extend Eflin now while we still can. That way the resources used to get him can actually provide some long term value. Dominguez was an ok pickup…I don’t hate the deal. Problem is we needed a closer and he’s isn’t that. Thankfully Bautista is returning and will push him down the depth chart a slot or two. Soto ….Agreed, you bring him back if you can’t find a better option. I expect them to keep him. Otherwise, giving up Seth Johnson with our minors pitching quality shortage looks like a bad decision  Eloy didn’t cost much …. My general thought is pick ups like him didn’t matter beyond how you grade those acquisitions on a team that “Really Wanted to Win”. I question this because none of the guys that we picked up where having good seasons elsewhere. My thoughts are the same for Rivera …. He was a 563 OPS in Miami but got hot here and was a .948 here. His career OPS is .676 so his stint here is probably not repeatable. His projected arb number is 1.4 million so they likely keep him around as a piece and he’s young enough that maybe the change in scenery caused the light to come on.   By the way … here’s a piece from Roch about sone of these guys.   https://www.masnsports.com/blog/taking-another-look-at-orioles-roster-decisions  
    • This has to count as one of the, if not the, biggest choke in ALCS history. Up 5-3 with two outs and no one on in the ninth, after you came back from 1-3 in the eight, with a chance to put a lock on the series.
    • Reverse jinx works again! 😆 🥳
    • Clay Holmes' agent could have used the season ending a good couple months ago. It was nice seeing a chink in Luke Weaver's armor.    Gunnar Henderson v. Anthony Volpe is kind of a centerpiece of Mike Elias mostly out-General Managing Brian Cashman the last half decade, but Luke Weaver v. Craig Kimbrel is not a good chapter and flipping those two guys might have changed the 2024 division.
    • I have all sorts of credit cards that charge interest because they provide me with tens of thousands of dollars in free interest. That said, I never pay interest, because I always pay off the balance each month. 
    • My friend and I each had flex plans. Him $2500 and me $1300. Neither of us renewed. Are schedules are too difficult to commit to a set plan and the lack of perks for the lower-tier set plans and flex plans make it not worth letting the Os earn the float on our money. 
    • I was going to post Ride the Lighting from Metallica but decided not to. I now regret that decision.
