As you can see, I haven't posted in a few days. I was preoccupied by the NCAA Tournament. Plus, I'm going through spring training fatigue. The season seems so close yet so very far away.
As for the hoops, the two teams I pull for are done.
Notre Dame looked horrible in losing to Florida State last night. I picked the Irish to win the entire tournament. Not because I truly felt they would win it but since they were a two-seed I figured if I don't pick them this year, when would I?
Even if they lost I couldn't imagine them losing like they did last night, going down like a bunch of chumps. A really nice season ending with a thud. Not one guy played well, not one. Oh well, time to look forward to ND spring football.
My other team played their opening game like Notre Dame did. St. John's showed nothing against Gonzaga. Nothing. This is a team that walloped Duke during the regular season. They played scared and timid in the tournament. That is not how you can play in the NCAA's. You have to go after it. What got into the Irish and the Johnnies, I don't know. Hopefully, in time, I'll remember fine seasons this year for ND and the Redmen and not the lousy endings.
And yes, I called St. John's the Redmen. I don't use their newfangled nickname which sounds like a plague of some type. Their the Johnnies or the Redmen to me.
