blue devils = barf

i was upset over NC State losing but they made it pretty far so i got nothing but love for Julius Hodge

and then the Villanova game.....makes me so angry. he DID NOT travel.....bah, Villanova would have won if they counted that basket. even the sports casters were like: wtf, they never call traveling this late in a game....i mean cmon, there were 11 seconds left. it's just so sheisty.

i have Carolina (although i'm not a fan by any means) going to the final 4 with Illinois. I had WFU in there and Duke but yeah they suck and i hate them for messing up my brackets

Jill, if we see MSU, I promise we'll spank 'em for you.

aphibeach, I totally understand being mad about BS calls so late in a close game. We lost our softball playoff game because we were down by one, 2 outs, and they called our player out at second when he overran the bag but the 2nd baseman never tagged him, she just stood on the base. You just don't make a call like that so late in an important game.

That was the best spring break EVAR! I took a road trip with my roomie and boyfriend. We drove to Mammoth and skied two days, drove to tahoe and skied the next day (that April there were 21 feet of snow with a few inches of fresh powder in the Sierras), drove to our beach house in oregon and spent the night then to Seattle to my mom's. Practically my whole chapter came up to Seattle and stayed with us for the final four and UCLA's big win!!! It was so amazing and so much fun. Of course, we couldn't get tickets so we watched the game in a bar across the street from the Kingdome with a bunch of other UCLA fans. What a great trip!

I tried to get tickets the year the Final 4 was in Seattle. I found out a few years later (when we started dating) that Mr. 1228 tried to get tickets too.

I want Michigan State to lose so bad...I hate to say this...
I am an ACC girl
So I have to cheer for Carolina...

Bruin, is your mom still in the Seattle area? I get my hair done in Seattle, not too far from Safeco

[bruinaphi]

After my poor bruins lost I was rooting for Arizona and Michigan State. I guess one of the two is good. I have a Spartan on my committee. I am sure she is happy.

My mom is in Portland now. She moved while I was in law school. I miss visiting Seattle.

Geez...too bad for you!

I'm a Big Ten girl through and through. I shed a tear about three minutes into the second half when NC went on that 8-point run. I knew it was over for my beloved Badgers. That's okay, my ringtone is still "On Wisconsin".

But daymn....LOVED that double OT Michigan State win! WOO-HOO!

My husband is seriously worried that I'm turning into a sports freak. I keep trying to tell him it's just the madness baby!
