I like this Cadillac commercial too, mainly b/c of the voice-over asking "Why, for the love of God, build a sedan that can go 200 mph?"

I'd love to have that car. The station wagon model if they still make it.

Dodge makes a Hellcat with 707hp. Friend has one. I have driven it. I got it to 190 and could have gone faster. It felt like it was going to take off, though. Scared the shit outta me.

Wichita St players talking trash and now the coach is getting in on the act a bit.

I hope that gets UK fired up.

After yesterday, there were 38 entries in the yahoo brackets that had called every game correctly. I wonder how many total brackets were entered in yahoo's bracket challenge. Anyway, 24 of those people had Notre Dame over WVa, so after that game it was down to 14 people with perfect brackets. Of those 14 entries, 13 had Nova beating Wisconsin. Whoops. So now there's only one perfect bracket in the yahoo pool, and that dude had Wisconsin winning it all...

ESPN must've had a lot more entries than yahoo, there were at least 50 people with perfect brackets after the Notre Dame/WVa game, but now, after the Nova game, there are only 9 perfect brackets left. Of those 9, two have Arizona winning it all, two have UNC, two have UK and then one each of UCLA, Gonzaga and Michigan State, so between UK, UNC and UCLA, several of those are going to be out before the FF. Man, it's hard to pick a perfect bracket...

Has anyone ever picked a perfect bracket since the advent of online brackets?

"The odds of picking a perfect bracket in the NCAA men's basketball tournament are really, really small. So small, in fact, that many mathematicians differ on the actual estimation of the odds.

Some believe it's as low as 1 in 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 (or 1 in 9.2 quintillion, for those who skipped the last 18 digits), while others, including Jeff Bergen, a professor at DePaul, think it's as "high" as 1 in 128 billion. Either way, picking all 63 games (excluding the First Four games) correctly is next to impossible."

if you click on your name in our bracket it shows your history of picking - for me going back to 2003

I'd like to see Donovan to IU

of course that would pretty much kill any chance of him taking Cal's place when Cal leaves in 3 years

For all I know, Jurich has promised Donovan the job after Pitino leaves

It's easier to win Powerball than turn in a perfect bracket.
