Re: March Madness - 2014/ESPN Tournament Challenge

I think I win 5% discount right?
Yep, and you can claim it on Monday when the Service Desk is open! Congratulations on the win, and Musky for coming in a close second! And congrats to Spikes for his stellar showing by coming in last. Someone has to do it! That should have been my spot, but I will reluctantly allow you to hold it for me till next year! HA! Now we know that the winner of the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship is no higher than a 7th seed. Just shows you it is all about peaking at the right time!

UConn is looking good. I believe Kentucky is a much younger team.....

I picked UCONN in another round by round game. Why, beats me. So far Conn is up by 12.

Yep, I figured you would go for UConn because of reasons mentioned earlier.

Someone needs to nudge GA and wake him up, there's a game on!:boink:

'Speck is probably out on a call........

QC is watching the race......... Not that he's into b-ball........:)

I was at a FD meeting. Back now. Saw KY down by 15, but coming back big time. Has been a recurrent theme for them this tourney, get down by double digits early and then start playing like a team instead of individuals.

KY sure isn't giving up. Big comeback before the half.

Ky down by 4 at the half. Tomorrow evening will be doing some swift water training with the FD boats. Water is a little high from to the rain and snow melt. Should be fun. I gotta get these guys used to handling boats in swift water. And I gotta get used to operating the inflatable, period.

UK has 5 starting freshmen like UM had once. They had to give the title up.
Calipari has had more than his share of problems.
So I'll go with UC. Of course that will jinx them.

Re: March Madness - 2014/ESPN Tournament Challenge

Back to 5 point lead for UConn ... Refs are letting them play, mostly, but a couple questionable calls have gone against UK. I think the refs need to be a little more consistent with their calls ... Not so much about which team, just if you are calling holding, then call them all.
