March Madness Memo, 16 March 2006

  • I would have been so happy to see Bruce Pearl lose to Winthrop.
  • OK, so GW's 8-seed might not have been so absurd.
  • I wish I had picked UWM over Oklahoma.  I did at first, but I think I changed it back.  The Big 12 just isn't very good this year.
  • Boston College is weaker than I thought.
  • The T on Illinois near the end of the game was the most ridiculous technical I have ever seen.
  • Note to Robert Vaden:  Nice shot.
  • Gonzaga is darn lucky to still be in this tournament.
  • Syracuse was darn lucky to be invited at all.
  • I just can't describe how happy I would have been to see Winthrop beat Bruce Pearl.
