8 is Just Not Enough....

Damn....

That's the perfect word to use if you took a dip in the COllege B-ball pool. So many upsets you can tell the kids parents came to the dance to keep all the winners and losers apart. Oh weezie, my original winners are still in it. But because of all the upsets, there is no chance in hell on the points table to keep up with all those losses. I will stay true to my word though and post up the Elite 8 with final four and top two to win it all. At least you can say that you got this far, right?

Elite 8
Duke/Texas/Gonzaga/Memphis
UCONN/Boston College*/Florida/George Mason

Now if you don't like those, or think that Villinova is the shit like that, you better take a mean look at BC. Just cause I'm from MA don't think I'm playing favorites. These guys can play straight up basketball and are good at playing possum too. I sure as hell thought it was a wrap the first round, only to come back to a good win. Plus they are a second half team who likes to turn it up in the last 5 minutes. If the game is close all the way, look at their defense, that shit matters down the stretch.

Florida will have their hands full with GTown simply because they are a rebounding team with a run and gun offense. You see shots go up but those grey jerseys are there to pull them down, Florida will have to jump ahead early and let those fuckers know what's really good.

UCONN - All starters are potential NBA prospects, but this is the dance, the only way they can't advance is if they implode from ALMOST losing their last game. Out of all the teams I have listed, this one plays the most like a team. If everyone is hitting or at least 3 out of 5 on the court, there is going to be another reason why I say New England is the shit.

The only reason Duke is in or on this list is because they had the easiest trip through this tournament, nuff said. It all ends when they see Memphis, period.

...Speaking of Memphis, every dog has his day, and looks like ol Calipari (coach- former UMASS coach) might have his. Only team on this list with NO SCARES, no two point wins, and people saying 'uh oh' down the stretch. This team has what it takes to win. Remember, Duke got their ass handed to them in their own house on Senior night by North Carolina, gotta wonder if ol number 4 is going to actually get backup for this one, if not, say bye bye Blue Devils.

G. Mason - even Cinderella had to go home sometime, you will make it to the eight, but it ends there. Same with Texas, you guys are the scariest team on the list, not surprised if they fall in the Sweet 16, I don't care what they did to NC State, I think they are suspect.

The Zags' are on point this year, I sure hope that with all they got for fire power, people see that it isn't just one kid that can play on that squad, the only thing is, is that they are suspect in the later rounds...

which brings me to the Final Four.....

Duke/Memphis/UCONN/Boston College

Sorry Texas, but you are going down in the sixteen only for that team to be eaten up by Duke
Zags are going to beat UCLA but will fall to Memphis.

UCONN will have smooth sailing and BC will scare the shit out of all of us but will make it as well.

in the end it will be Memphis/BC. I will not be surprised if Duke falls to LSU but I'm guessing that Baby Shaq don't have it all going for him with no real outside shooter is there to pass the ball to.

BC takes it in the end. You are sitting there reading this saying...yeah dude is from Mass alright, but the thing is what you gotta do is look at the game and check for yourself. I'm loving the upsets, and this is making the madness in march all the real. Even if Memphis wins it's not a dark day for New England, coach Cal has love up here, and we still got the tape of Coach Chaney (now retired coach from Temple) going after that ass at that press conference during the A-10 Conference championships. Sorry yall but don't expect the expected this time around.

After all, fucking BRADLEY is still in the shit.

I'm out, big up T*Baby, I pray you are ok.
K* March will be over soon.
P* Sorry I had to go so abruptly...we still cool right?

enjoy Monday, I know I will...I'm off dammit.
