A few more in

Last night St Mary's, a team that I think is could and should have gotten in anyway, beat Gonzaga most likely sending one less big east team to the big dance, which is fine with me since UCONN, ND, Cinci and Seton hall should not make the tournament. Teams should be at least 500 in their conference, I don't care how good or bad people think their conference is. Even in the big east where cuse, nova, WVU are very good, and pitt and g-town is good, you have terrible teams like depaul, rutgers, st john's, providence, and even south fl, seaton hall, uconn, nd, cinci, marquette, and Louisville are not great teams. Take a team Seton hall who is 18-11 and 9-9 in conference, the best team they beat this year was Pitt, that's one good win, they also beat Cornell and UMass but lost to Temple and VA Tech, they are not a tournament team. This week is the best week since teams who have done all they could all year to be in this position, they have over 20 wins, they have dominated their conference, yet they know they need to win their conference tournament in order to get to the NCAA tournament. They are great games, played with a lot of passion, I love watching them. Congrats to Wofford for making the tournament for the first time ever last night. Siena also got it's ticket to the big dance punched last night as well as ODU.

CMU will play in the MAC quarter finals Thursday starting at noon vs Western, our biggest rival, who we just beat by 8 last week at home. It will be a hard game, but I hope we get find a way to win, and then move on to play most likely Akron.

The Big ten tournament also starts Thursday and that should be interesting because they have 4 locks, and then Ill Minn and Northwestern with small chances if they can make a good run, and then all other teams need to win it to be in.

Speaking of the big ten I was lucky enough to be at the MSU-Michigan game on Sunday. Michigan just couldn't make a shot in the first half, and they got punched in the mouth and didn't respond well at all. MSU played well, it was nice to see Morgan play well on Sr day, and let me tell you, it is loud in their, especially down low, which I was again lucky enough to be 5 rows behind the bench, two rows behind Mateen, C bell and Suton.

The Big east tournament is under way as South Fl is beating Depaul right now, since Depaul is bad. But conference tournaments are great.


I just got news that Chris Allen is suspended indefinitely from the MSU basketball team. He didn't score at all in the game on Sunday, not that they needed him then, but he is a good shooter, that to make a run past the sweet 16 they are going to need him. It will be interesting to find out what happened, if we ever do.

My high school team had a ugly win last night but that is better then loosing this time of year, just win and move on, that is all that matters. Hopefully we can play better tomorrow. I'm right, you're wrong.
