It's Too Bad They Won't Let Him Play Basketball Wearing One Glove
I don't know if this is Anthony Atkinson making a statement that no one really cared about Barton, or if it's just a man in his dorm room celebrating Michael Jackson's entire catalog. All I know is that I'd trust Anthony Atkinson, hero of the D-II national champion Barton College Bulldogs, to select...
Joey Dorsey Still Not In The Running For the Naismith Award
It's only fair, really, to check back in with Memphis's Joey Dorsey, who called out Greg Oden before the Ohio State/Memphis game, and then spent the game treating Oden like Morgan Freeman treated Miss Daisy....
About Last Night...
• Women's College Basketball. Rutgers 53, Duke 52. .1 on the clock, down 1 point, shooting two free throws ... and neither of them even get close to going in. That can't feel good. I'm sorry, Lindsay Harding. • College Hockey. Maine 3, UMass 1. The Black Bears are in the Frozen Four. I am happy for ...
The Kansas/UCLA Open Thread
Kansas vs. UCLA will be tipping any time now. Hopefully, that one will make this one look like the JV game. There's no shortage of history and tradition there, of course, as will be mentioned during the obligatory shot of Bill Walton in the stands with his tiny Asian wife....
Memphis vs. Ohio State Liveblog, 2nd Half
• We're back underway, and the second half starts just like the first... with Greg Oden abusing Joey Dorsey....
Memphis vs. Ohio State Liveblog, 1st Half
Slight adjustment of plans with the liveblog, as you may have noticed. We're getting a little bit of a late start because of some technical issues. It's still a liveblog, but sort of... delayed. Sorry....
Let's Just Quit
Nothing that can happen the rest of the day is going to top that. I'm done. No more basketball for me. I'm quitting while I'm ahead....
Mock Drafts Are Of No Interest To Joey Dorsey
Memphis forward Joey Dorsey does not share the popular view that Greg Oden is very good at basketball. Dorsey intends to show the world tonight that Greg Oden is, for lack of a better word, his bitch....
Cinderella Is A 3-Seed
Maybe the lack of an underdog isn't such a bad thing. The lowest-seeded team left is Oregon, who's battled to the Elite Eight from the lowly ranks of the 3-seed. But ultimately, this is about finding the best team, right? Crowning the most deserving champion? At the end of the day, aren't Cinderella...

The Monastic Butler Pep Rally Video
We're not sure why this video affected us so much when we watched it last night — it's actually quite silly. But in a tournament that has offered us so few upsets, and little opportunity for the little guy smacking it to the big guy, we couldn't help but find ourselves a little inspired to see a But...

Man, These Games Run LATE
Before we delve into last night's games, a legitimate question: Why doesn't the NCAA receive the complaints about the late endings of their most important games the way Major League Baseball does for scheduling the World Series so late? We know that they have to fit in two games, but the Ohio State-...
About Last Night ...
What you missed while saving El Moolah ... • College basketball: NCAA Tourney ... Mighty Oden smites Tennessee's last shot. • NBA: If Kobe Bryant reaches a milestone against the Grizzlies, does it make a sound? • NHL: Poor Opus. DiPietro, Islanders stop Penguins....
Time To Spark This Puppy Up Again
OK, these games are actually tipping back off tonight; SIU-Kansas kicks us off, and we'll be on far into the night. We've said just about everything that can be said about this business, so now we just pass the mic to you through tonight's games. Our fingers are still crossed for a Jayhawks bench co...
