My four final four teams, Louisville, Memphis, Syracuse and Villanova.... but wouldn't it be some national championship game if UConn won the west and we had four Big East teams in the Final Four? If UConn gets by Memphis... (which they may) and Syracuse gets by Oklahoma in the Sweet 16 which they can... I think The Orange may be the only team that can slow down UNC... because of that 2-3 zone... If Boeheim sticks to it... and they run well we may see a thriller between Syracuse and Villanova, in 12 days... I think Louisville will beat Memphis... and we will have a rematch between Syracuse and Louisville for the national title... The UConn/Memphis regional final was so difficult to pick for me... it will depend on Hasheem Thabeet Staying out of foul trouble

Syracuse, Memphis, Villanova, Louisville, Louisville and Memphis will have a barn burner... but the game of the tournament will be Syracuse/Villanova... two Big East teams that love to run... then Louisville and Syracuse will play in the national championship game where this time... Syracuse won't be tired from playing the equivalent to 5 games in a row...

Even though I root for Syracuse since I live only 45 miles away from the University, I cannot foresee them beating Oklahmoma unless their Big Gun, Blake Griffin has a real bad game.

i agree pez. i think that if oak ends up playing carolina, which i think they will, that will be a great matchup between hansbrough and griffin. two great bigs. but dont forget about the most impressive big thus far in the tourney in thabeet from uconn. i got them winning it all, so hopefully price and thabeet stay hot.

blake is a little girl. Yea he gets alot of re-bounds but who did he get them all aginst iowa state and nebraska. Did you see graze of the nose that had him on the bench for the big 12 tournament. As long as someone gets under the hope and is physical blake is a non-issue.

You clearly have not watched Griffin play much this season. Was Michael Beasley overrated because he got all his rebounds against some bad Big XII teams? How about Kevin Durant?

Beasley is an unbelievable rebounder, and not just because of the competition he is playing against. I saw him play against Purdue in NYC this past november in person, and he blew me away with how perfect his timing was on nearly every rebound opportunity. Also, to say he is a "little girl" because he got knocked in the nose and got a concussion is an idiotic statement. Should he have risked further injuring his brain by playing through the pain? And to further prove you have no idea what you are talking about, he didn't get hurt in the Big XII Tournament, it was a regular season game. All of that said, I think Oklahoma will lose to Syracuse tomorrow night. Griffin is a rare talent, but outside of Warren they don't have enough offense to hang with Syracuse.

Your post is a "cheap shot" and DEAD WRONG about Blake.

If Missouri keeps this up my bracket is shot... Calipari better get his guys going in the second half. I wish they could both lose.

Did you see Oklahoma demolish Syracuse and Blake Griffin prove why he is hailed as the Player of the Year---30 points and 14 rebounds, and the highest number of rebounds that any Syracuse player got was SIX!! Coach Jim Boeheim said that Griffin is everything that he is supposed to be. Boeheim was stopped from getting his 800th win by Griffin & Co, and he really was not surprised. Syracuse is a decent team, but they were no match for Oklahoma.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
