Mar 15, 2007 11:51

You know my life is devoid of excitment and such when I fill my journal with nothing but Youtube crap.

But this time it's different.

This song has been pretty much my own personal anthem since the moment I fell out of my mother's womb......

And yeah the lyrics hit home and Paul Simon is hot and whatnot but ( Read more... )

I have trouble seeing anyone beating Florida, and of course, I don't count out UCLA or UNC.

well most of my picks are based on wishful thinking. i hate florida and unc. i also get a big kick out of predicting improbably upsets like nms over texas, long beach state over tennessee. gives my bracket some punch.

I always fill out a "wishful thinking" bracket for laughs. I HATE NC.

Hmmm....I seem to recall someone predicting VCU to be this year's George Mason.;p

Tis always fun to see David tell Goliath to pack his bags, even if Goliath isn't what he used to be.

UVA vs.UNC- oldest rivaly in the South. And we had to share the ACC title with them.;/

Well done, you. dondlion March 16 2007, 13:03:16 UTC
It's a shame DUKE gets all of the attention as rivals in the ACC.

As a UCLA fan,(eleven NCAA's)it's not possible always to root for David. John Wooden is still the best man in college basketball.

I nearly lost it when I heard Jay Bilas, ESPN college basketball analyist, former Duke player and current Duke apologist proclaim that VCU's win was a "mild" upset. Whatever. As my brother is so fond of saying "Duke is Duke," so whenever a mid major school beats them, it's always going to be big, regardless of what the alumi say.

I take this stuff way too seriously.;p

John Wooden is a wonderful man! UCLA is pretty much the only California team I like, in any sport.

You have Bilas right. He probably thinks he's 'objective.'

Don't feel bad. I carry sports vendettas to the grave (you hear that, Boston Celtics, San Francisco Giants, USC, UNC, Yankees, Man Utd and all the rest of you?)

I guess I can forgive you, but watch yourself. I am rooting for all VA teams. Pete Carroll lives near my job. Last week I went to the Pac-10 tournament final where USC got embarrassed by Oregon. Heisman winner Reggie Bush was there. He left early, like all of the USC fans. There was a guy sitting a few rows in front of our box wearing a USC #32 "Simpson" (as in O.J.)football jersey. That's what USC is like.

Pete just seems like a nice guy. I was almost hoping he'd return to the NFL just so I wouldn't have to root against him all the time.

Thanks for giving me yet another reason to dislike them. Wearing OJ's jersey number is profoundly f-ed up.

Yes, sort of. But they faded, as I'd have expected. Ho hum. The bright side for us is that they're still behind us, but I hate, hate, hate UNC.

Unfortunely, the guy that lives downstairs from me is a big UNC fan. Even has a blasted Tarheel flag decorating his front door. I could hear him going ballistic during the game. Course it's hard to tell if he actually attended school....in these parts, donning UNC gear is akin to wearing Notre Dame stuff. You can tell that they didn't go to the school..they just wear it for the name only.
