To what team have you transferred your support in the NCAA Tournament?
Asked at Jefferson's Restaurant, 743 Mass. on March 25, 2006
“I’m going with Wichita State. They’re the closest team, and you’ve got to keep it in Kansas.”
“I would love for Memphis to win and represent for the South.”
“Wichita State. Go Shockers. They’re the only Kansans left. They’ve got to have the Kansas support.”
“Wichita State. It might have been Texas, but I’ve spent so much time rooting against them that it’s too late to start now.”

A couple of reminders: Cellach did not complete her entry, Jouhnes is The_Original_Bob, and Strong is sgtwolvervine. Although, I am currently leading, I don't think I'll win because Enochville 5 had North Carolina beating UCLA in the final.

Someone should have said, "What tournament? Basketball is dead to me. Thanks, Coach Self."

Did anyone here see or hear about that UCONN vs Washington game last night??!!
Wow! What a game!
I still think it's UCONN's tournament to lose.
I mean, last night they (UCONN) played kind of a lousy first-half (lots of turnovers).....and yet, they still scored 83 points in regulation!! (The game went into overtime.)
UCONN just has tons of talent.
linux_chick (anonymous) says…
I watched the UConn game. Unfortunately, I don't think they deserved to win it... and when the refs review that game on tape (esp. the last 90 seconds), they should be ashamed.
Anywho, WS lost last night by 8. Kind of sux.

Careful wearing that hood, you might not get there. Pin the envelope to your heart so we don't shred it up. If it is Oatmeal Stout, you will have no worry from me shooting you, just those that try to get between me and the keg.
Magazines loaded! Light'm up!

I'm a Big 12 snob -- KU first, then Big 12 teams, after that I pretty much stop caring. I do continue to watch though, it's college basketball and that's entertaining.
