4/8: Madness Recap, Some MLB, etc.


  • Above You will see a main reason why Memphis lost last night....any time your best 2 players (AND foul shooters) shoot a combined 1-5 in the last 90 seconds, including a front-end of a 1-and-1....that's a problem...All the other stuff (i.e. coaching decisions) are debatable, but that's not...make your FTs....The only point I'll make on the coaching (not fouling late or calling a TO) is that I just hope Calipari is consistent...it's a philosophy thing more than anything else...I'm always one that says foul up 3....others say play it out...differing opinions...I can't bash him unless he got tight and changed his philosophy...otherwise, cool

  • Big-time performance from the Kansas guards late....from the steal and kickout 3 that cut it to 4 and got them back in it to Chalmers hitting the dagger....real stepup performance....2 very evenly matched teams on a big stage...I really enjoyed it.....

  • Bill Self should just use the OK State stuff as leverage for a raise like everyone else does....that's at least 2 steps down in programs...get your money and stay

To Baseball....


  • Braves squander a Tom Glavine gem by allowing 2 runs in the 8th to lose 2-1....anger....was watching this split-screen at a sportsbar and cursing....hope the bullpen gets better...and fast

  • More: Baltimore utterly smashes the M's in 4 straight...trouble for like...all my division frontrunners....COME ON TIGERS AHHHHH....Jeter goes down with a groin/quad/whatever...hope its not serious for him...

Other stuff....

  • David Garrard gets $60 million...that says more to me about the QB market than about Garrard...he's a nice player...but wow, that seems high

  • Basketball HOF: Ewing, Olajuwon...duh....Adrian Dantley was that dude....and Dickie V...I love him....All I have to say is..."REWARD THE DEFENSE!! OHHHHH THE ALTERNATE POSSESSION!!!" Okay that's all..

  • WCBB champ. game tonight...tune in please...at least give it a shot....

  • NBA was off last night...terrible...at least give me one game....That said, Hawks with a must-win tonight @ Indy...at least for a possible run at the 7 seed...and Indy is the closest team to them....really not a game you wanna lose...I'll be tuned in to that, the braves and the WCBB game....you should too
