Butler just advanced to the final four and I must say that I am happy as can be. This year's tournament has become an upset filled event and I see the winner being a complete underdog. Kentucky is the only real favorite left and I see Duke losing at some point. What does all this mean? You just don't know what is going to happen next.

March 26, 2010

Thoughts from the NCAA tournament. Syracuse lost yesterday to a team that was not as talented and would beat 8 of 10 times. They were simply looking ahead and played very careless all game. But this is also the reason that the NCAA tournament is the best sporting event going right now. You don't have a Red Sox or Yankees that is almost assured of being in the world series. In the Ncaa tournament you just never know what is going to happen.

John Wall. Great player but where is this hype of "one of the greatest pro prospects" coming from? I don't know why you even guard him while he is on the floor. Just stand off and let him shoot it. His jumper is flat out ugly. In order to be the sure lock, number 1 pick I would think you would have a little more all around game than this. He is a freaky athlete and is great in transition and throwing the ball down to Cousins and Patterson. But I guess I don't get all the fuss he gets compared to all the other great players out there.
