UK Fans -- Who are y'all pulling for on Sunday (besides the end of the world)? I know it's not personal for me with Pitino like it is for you fellas, but I'll be rooting for him more than MeccaCards will be when he's going against k*rzythead.

Easy one TAK.... Louieville will win it all and keep the trophy in the Bluegrass. Not necessarily that I'm for them, but I'd be for the Taliban against Dook. (and iu also)

Is basketball late or is baseball early? Opening Day & The National Championship always happened on the same Monday right?

NCAA Championship is always the first Monday in April. Opening Day is always April 1 (I think it is the 31st at times, but I may be wrong). Sometimes they coincide.
The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.

Opening Day used to be the 1st Monday in April, along with the NCAA title game -- they added the Sunday Night opener a few years ago, and now they are starting on a Saturday. So to answer your question, yes, it's getting earlier

The 1st Monday in April is this Monday. I think the NCAA snuck in an extra hype week on us just like they did the BCS game & the NFL does monthly. Smooth move NCAA. You got me.

Good Lord, do I really have to put my faith in Wichita State to keep either UofL or Duke out of the title game?

As much as I would love for the Gators to once again bitch slap the Buckeyes in another (name your sport) title game, I would rather not take the chance of those fuckheads not realizing 1-2 isn't a great average if they won.

Just beat Michigan.

I'm afraid it's shaping up to be another kzryzewski tailor-made title run.

I don't see Florida getting past Michigan though.

These crappy officials are treating osu like they're dook. Breathe on them and it's a foul.

Yep...It's as if unK*le tom butters is still paving the road to the final four for that sonofabitch.

Rat -- Curious as to why you feel Pitino winning his 2nd title would be worse than k*rzythead winning his 5th? Even the UK fans seem to be OK with Pitino over that bastard.

Because I could give a shit about coach k. Not my battle. Always thought Pitino was a snake.

set-up by the basketball Gods. Louisville in the finals. They only have to beat Duke. No other 2 seeds, and end up with death of the Big East against Syracuse.

that would be a great matchup. not sure about the actual game but the pregame would be fun. I still like Billy D. to cement his legacy with No. 3
