Gonzaga is a local team for me, so I guess I would root for them.
Not that I really care either way. Won't make a whit of difference in my life no matter who wins - or even if they decided not to play the last game...

I look forward to seeing Gonzaga's center Karnowski who is 7 feet tall and 300 pounds go against UNC's center Meeks who is 6 foot 10 and 275 pounds! That is 2 BIG men!

Those were a couple of good games tonight. I even got Conchita to sit still through most of Oregon/NC State. I have no dog in this fight, but I guess I am feeling a mild inclination toward Gonzaga. Oregon didn't seem to have an answer for Meeks, but Gonzaga's two big guys look like they can take up a lot of room.

I would like to see the Zags take it, but it is hard (and probably dumb)
to bet against NC.

Gonzaga is about 3 hours from where I live so go Zags. If they show up to play it should be a pretty easy game for Gonzaga. But you just don't know what team is going to show up on Monday.

This is the Tar Heels' Redemption Tour, after last year's loss in the final four seconds of the game, which was the best NCAA final ever.
I got Carolina all the way. They'll find a way to win.
UNC '78.

The written addendum on the back of my UNC sheepskin states that : "If caught supporting another team, this document is hereby null and void and said holder must return to calling tractor pulls."
Not worth it.
Besides, who doesn't like Petty Blue?

Being a Clemson grad, I probably should pull for UNC, since they are in the ACC (having National Champs in both football and basketball in the same conference would be good for the ACC). But, I am a Clemson fan and not an ACC fan, as I have argued with some of you SEC guys. Clemson recruits against UNC, not Gonzaga.
BTW, as a Clemson alum, I realize UNC is our "daddy" in basketball!!!
My reasons may be stupid, but...........Go Zags! I actually hope it is a good game, no matter who wins.

I enjoyed the game. In fact, I enjoyed the whole tournament.
Now, on to baseball and, before long, the highlight of my sports year: The Little League World Series playoffs.
Life is good.

Ugly game! That seems to happen a lot when two really good teams play each other. Nothing works well!! Got our money's worth to watch it, right?

Funny you should mention baseball. I just finished reading Jim Bouton's book Ball Four. Yeah, I know, I'm probably the last person in America to have read it. It was one of those "some day I'm going to read that book" things that I just now got around to doing. It was great, and being written during a time when I was much more interested in the sport, made it that much more enjoyable, as I knew many of the players and managers named in the book. Many of the things made me laugh out loud when reading it. The point I'm slowly getting to is it has sparked my interest in the game to the point that I might actually watch a few games this year. Go Tigers!

The refs were way to involved in the second half. I kept yelling at my TV "Let them play!".

Refs thought they were the show. Pitiful call with 50 seconds left to give NC the ball.

Zags came out pretty flat on the second half.
Friends don't let friends buy Taurus.
