What a Joke
Who the hell is running the NCAA Tournament Selction Committee? Is it the same pranksters who came up with the great idea to give Keenen & Kel their own movie deal? Or is it the guy who said, "this Piscapo guy is a can't miss comedic talent." Maybe it was Edgerrin James agent, I mean after all he is the guy who said, "hey Edge, you know this Arizona thing may work out, and even if it doesn's you'll have a $11 mill. by weeks end." What the hell is going on here? Have you people actually looked at these damned brackets? Air fucking Force? They shouldn't be in a tournament that includes the 64 best service academies.
Now I haven't had much time to sit down and digest all of these things, my head is still spinning from the Gamecocks improbable run toward the SEC Championship this weekend. Even with losing the final game by 2 points the Gamecocks with 15 losses were more deserving than some of the at large teams. The Cincinnati Bearcats are also one of the bigger snubs of the year. What about Missouri State? Why have all these fancy RPI numbers if you are not going to use them? Missouri State had all these numbers backing up their case, but when push came to shove they were not chosen. Seriously, it looks as if the committee just picked names out of a hat. The seeds are even more random than the teams that made the dance.
The most overrated seed ever is Tennessee as a #2. And I am not just saying that because of my complete disdain for all things Tennessee, but because they do not deserve it. They got s a sky high RPI early in the season, but they have stumbled mightily down the stretch, losing 4 or their last 6 including my Gamecocks kicking their ass all over the Gaylord Entertainment Center in Nahsville during their first SEC Tournament game. Boston College and Pittsburgh both should have been hire up than they were. These two teams both have Final Four potential. Pittsburgh has the same seed as Nevada and the unlikely dancers, Syracuse. Nobody has bigger man crush's on Nevada's Nick Fazekas & Cuse's Gerry McNamara but their teams should not have the same seed as Pitt. As for BC they were about 45 seconds away from being the ACC Tournament champs and they are a 4 seed, behind teams like North Carolina and Tennessee.
I need some time to think about this damned tournament. Tommorrow we will have complete coverage of each region and the favorites and possible cinderella's and all that crap. Plsu we will also give you players and coach's who will be making names for themselves during the next two weeks.
