Well good game Aztecs. They shut down Miller, Sears, and Quinerly. Rooting for them the rest of the way I guess. Our record in the S16 is abysmal.

I think UConn is going to win it all

I hate the one and done guys of today,but I think it lends to teams being upset because they don’t stay and develop powerhouse teams anymore.

Forget them, look at Duke and Kentucky!

Pray tell, which dog did you select?

I will say I don’t think it's either of the things you suspect. I think it's more people seeing a guy who is a great college player who's skills don't translate to him being a very good NBA player. I'm not saying it's right, either. He should be appreciated for what he is, not what he isn't. His footwork and balance are insane.

I've always felt like you post great content, but I sometimes get the impression that you argue just to argue. You and I had one in which I wasn't even sure why we were arguing - I felt like you completely missed the nuances of the points I was making.

That said, I feel like you responded to this perfectly. Full props from me.

And, I'm sure there is probably some level of racial hate out there for Timme, only because there there is ignorant, hateful Twitter content out there in every regard. You did a great job reminding us that they don't represent the vast majority of us.

For the record, I never argue to argue. I will agree, endorse, debate and challenge based on my beliefs, convictions and truth, nothing more. My level of conviction and/knowledge may show through in my posts, but the other side of the coin is that I don't pretend to know things that I don't and I have no problem deferring.

I’m a big women’s basketball as of late as my daughter gets closer to graduating high school. Watched SC a few times this year and they are nasty,but the girl from Iowa is absurd.can’t wait to watch that game.

Iowa had been together a LONG time. Problem is SC is too big and too talented. They can put 6'5", 6"7' and 6'4" in the same lineup! Man I am so proud of was Tech has done with no high school all Americans. They have beaten Louisville, Duke, FSU, Tennessee twice, Miami. North Carolina twice and N.C. state. Won the ACC tournament to earn a #1 seed. Just a dream season.

Given the seeds of the final 4 teams, I'm surprised 6 people guessed correctly.
