    You don't understand that the traditional Easter dinner is leg of lamb, stuffed with multicolor Peeps and experienced with a fine muscatel. I'm sure that he has now moved to a fine celebratory dessert of jello and cool whip parfait.

    Go Syracuse!

    I picked them to win it all as a joke in one of my brackets and it might happen.

    It must take a couple of days for the internet to get out to Bumfuk, Nebraska.

    Is Stokes worshipping at the Shrine of the 2/3 Zone? Damn.... UNC. The blue bloods who will not be penalized. Well at least we got Duke.

    Syracuse is the first 10 seed to ever make the FF.

    Wichita State three years ago is the only 9 seed to make it.

    LSU, George Mason, and VCU made it as 11 seeds.

    1-11 now all covered.

    No team seeded 9th or lower has advanced to the title game.

    Has an 8th seed won? UCONN was a 7 when they won, right?

    8. They tied for the worst seed to make the finals.

    Three 8 seeds made the finals. Villanova (won the title), Butler (lost to Duke), and Kentucky two years ago (lost to UConn).

    UConn was a 7 and the second worst seeded team to win.

    The worst was, as above, Villanova.


    So basically Syracuse is trying to set a new mark and with them in the Final Four is Villanova, the record-holder.


    here is a new vbookie event for the tournament champion:

    I will also create an event for betting on the two games this weekend

    Nope. Stokes is banned for a week. His team Syracuse made it to the Final Four. I texted him to congratulate and he told me to tell the board what he was up to. :)

    Pat Forde calling it like it is. Nice to have someone in the national media not afraid to bring this up.

    "The Final Four matchups are now set. In one national semifinal, we have Villanova vs. Oklahoma. In the other, we have On Probation vs. Under Investigation."
