Are you an alumnae, too, Legalboxer, or are you just being nice to me:-)?

P.S. -- GO TERPS!

Not an alumnus but grew up in Annapolis MD my whole life and am back there now- and am a loyal ACC fan, the only team that surpasses the terps on my list is Carolina - so unless its Carolina vs Maryland, I always root for those Terps - and then all other ACC teams EXCEPT Duke - :-)

Hey, Legalboxer - just wanted you to know that I went to a Pacer game last night and guess who starred in the halftime show? The 1954 Milan High School Basketball team - who's state championship win that year was the inspiration for "Hoosiers." They showed clips of the championship game and the players were all treated to floor seats. Boy, did they get the "standing 'O'". It's the 50-year anniversary of their win. They seemed very pleased with the tribute, and it was a treat instead of a treatment for the crowd. The "Hoosier mentality" lives on

We sat across the aisle from Larry Bird and Donny Walsh - Bird is funny, he starts chewing furiously on his gum every time a Pacer screws up. He also has the longest neck in the history of humankind. Donny's getting old. Both were gracious and signed autographs intermittently throughout the game. Bill Walton had himself a good ol' time with a percussion group who play on recycled garbage tubs and kitchen sinks. I don't care for the guy, but he was having a really good time at the game last night.

On to important news: Notre Dame kicked the shit out of those Boilermakers in the NIT last night and probably sent Gene Keady into retirement. PTL, PTL, PTL. Maybe Touchdown Jesus has forgiven me after all.

As a Canadian, I don't have any vested interest in any particular team, but I love this tournament, particularly the first two weeks. I just hope for the underdogs to pull an upset. They rarely do, but it's exciting when it happens. Generally, I just root against the usual powerhouses like Duke, Kentucky and Arizona and then pick a team or two who have an outside chance of winning and hope for them.

keep on with that philosophy Adven :-)

GAL - thank you so much for sharing - that sounds like a wonderful night - between getting to see the 1954 team and sitting across from Bird and Walsh - that is just too perfect. And i am VERY happy Notre Dame beat Purdue- they should anyway - what kind of name is boilermakers anyway- plus it was a day for the irish :-)

I hate Duke and I'm just glad Maryland pulled it out for the ACC tournament.

Go Duke! Only because it may win me money in the pool at work. I don't have strong feelings one way or another for NCAA basketball this year.

I used to root for Georgetown when they had Iverson. My mom was Allen's high school math teacher in Hampton, VA and was a character witness on his behalf at his brawl trial. They had a good bond and he never gave her any problems. He still stays in touch with his HS basketball coach and the coach's wife is one of my mom's best friends. He told them to tell my mom that if she ever wanted tickets, to let him know. We are all like, MOM! DO IT!

Just a little name dropping this morning.... I have important connections and don't you forget it!

Herm- Outside of the ACC, the big East was the only other conference i had any respect for - and that was because i did have a small soft spot in my heart for Georgetown- not only because of being nearby but because John Thompson was such a good coach and then AI being there- in fact, the deciding factor to go to law school at syracuse was because it was the big east school and if i cant be in ACC country it was the next best thing - Georgetown just fired their coach yesterday which was big in the DC area- but i do hope they rebound soon :-) maybe its me but they just seemed like a classy school

I loved Georgetown back when they had Ewing and Wingate and Reggie Williams. Brings back memories.

I don't trust teams with one word in their name: Duke, Georgetown, Kentucky, Arizona, etc .... I like teams with names so long, their acronym is incomprehensible. Like the University of Southwest Utah State - Eastern Provo Campus or the Fightin' USUSEPC's for short.

I don't trust people whose usernames are shortened versions of longer words, like adventure or smuggle or kahlua.

I don't trust people who put highly suggestive numbers at the end of their names.

I MEANT to say that I really like people with usernames that are shortened versions of longer words. Please don't harm Team Rob M.

LB, if pressed, I would probably root for teams in my geographical vicinity -- Duke, UNC, NC State, Richmond.... Of course Georgetown is in that grouping, but they are not in the tourney.

I'm sorry to say I absolutely cannot root for Maryland because my ex is from MD and he was a big fan. I cannot root for the Dallas Cowboys for the same reason and if Michael Vick ever ends up in Dallas, I will be devastated. But that's another sport. I will, however, in appreciation of you and Mocha, not actively root against Maryland either. :-)

Sure, Adven, sure. That's not what I hear. I've seen the posts in your personal folder. Would you like to try saying that again with a straight face?

First of all....GO DUKE

I always pick Duke to win.

Secondly, I always cheer for the Michigan teams...GO SPARTANS!

Third, because I am a NASCAR fan...this is for Chad Little....GO Gonzaga!

If we are talking about names, I would like to have picked Gonzaga to win if only for their name. I think it is funny. It makes me giggle. I wonder if there will ever be a team called Bazoomas.
