Memphis is worthy, but Texas is probably better... I think Dean Smith and John Thompson are pretty pleased... Judging by how upset folks are that their team got passed over yesterday; just imagine an NCAA Football Playoff system...

Memphis is worthy, but Texas is probably better... 

I think Dean Smith and John Thompson are pretty pleased... 

Judging by how upset folks are that their team got passed over yesterday; just imagine an NCAA Football Playoff system...

Arizona State got jobbed.  I guess head to head competition doesn’t mean much these days...

I can't believe Billy Packer could have been any more ACCentric Sunday...

Nice to see Verne Lundquist still working.  Professional, classy, understated... 

I won’t worry about the Laker’s big 33 until Houston gets to 28 wins...

I thought you had to have a winning record to get into the playoffs.  Maybe we can just count Philly, New Jersey, or Atlanta out now and save time...

David Stern is on his knees at this very moment praying for a Lakers/Celtics final...

It’s a shame the Dodgers felt they had to leave Vero Beach.  The ghosts of Jackie, Sandy, Duke, and Roy must be sad... 

Imagine the numbers for mere mortals Mays and Aaron had they used steroids... 

In his prime, Mays was the best in the game, bar none... 

It’ll be interesting to see how the offensive categories look at the end of this baseball season... 

Whatever happened to the stolen base?  You can only wonder what Lou Brock or Ricky Henderson would make in this inflated salary market...

Tiger just may win them all.  He’s that good... 

Remember when Mickelson said Tiger had inferior equipment?  I guess he got that figured out... 

Does anyone really care that this is an Olympic year?  Thousands will visit, but I don't know who will be watching... 

I don’t know if they are athletes, but a great bowler is something to watch... 

Nice to see the IRL and CART kiss and makeup.  Indy should be great this year... 

MMA is fine, but does anyone else miss boxing as it used to be?  Louis/Schmeling, Holmes/Norton, Leonard/Duran, and of course, Ali/Frazier...

Finally, I wish USC would find a player named Hamm just so I could write about a tandem of Hamm and Mayo once in my life...
