Welcome To Our Tourney Extravagaza. Or Something Like That
All right, we spent pretty much every waking moment this weekend cooking this up for you, so we hope you like it....

Wither The Bearcats? (And The Wolverines ... And The Seminoles ... And The ...)
We're not quite sure how this whole RPI thing works — foolishly, we did not major in bracketology in college — but we know a pissed-off coach when we see one. Cincinnati's Andy Kennedy is none to pleased with his Bearcats being left out of the NCAA Tournament, and unless we miss our guess, right a...

We're Mad, We Tell You ... MAD!
Well, the most exciting graphical representation of a mathematical application has now been unleashed upon us. The NCAA Tournament is finally here. We're going to be looking at different sections of the bracket today, but first we'd like to talk about two people: Billy Packer and Joe Lunardi....

Selection Sunday. Yeeee-HA.
We're going to kick off Deadspin's coverage of the NCAA tournament here tonight with a live blog of CBS's Selection Show. I'll be updating every few minutes after the jump... feel free to bring your own bad self to the comments section....

Crazy Sunday
There are five more championship games on tap today on Selection Sunday. We've got the SEC, the ACC, the Big 12, and the Big Ten. Oh, and of course, the Southland championship game is today, which forces the selection committee, in their all-day meetings, to write "whatever suck-ass team wins the ...

Eye Of The Wildcat
I have asked for video of the Allan Ray eye injury last night, and you guys have responded like champions. Thanks to all of you who sent in links, but this is the best one I've gotten. All I can say about the video is AHHHHHHHH! AHHHHHHHHH!...

Online March Madness Sure To Be Maddening
We were hesitant to even mention this to you — for purely selfish reasons — but you've surely heard about it anyway: The NCAA Tournament will be available On Demand on your computer for free this Thursday, all games, streaming onto your desktop. That's great, right? We mean, that's the American dr...

Two More Teams Do The No-Pants Dance
In the Southern Conference (SoCon, as the kids call it) tournament final, Davidson beat the hell out of UT-Chattanooga, winning 80-55. It's nice for Davidson, who went undefeated in the regular season last year, but didn't win the tournament, and thus, did not dance. Brendan Winters had 33 for the...

Eagles, Bruins, Racers Do The Dance Of Joy
Congratulations go out to Winthrop, Belmont, and Murray State for becoming the second, third, and fourth teams to get themselves into the NCAA Tournament. We won't know until next week if any of them are getting #1 seeds, though....

College Basketball Games Worthy Of Just One Network
Observe as I attempt to do this without using the b-word that rhymes with "stubble."...

Those Lovable Michigan Scamps
Well, according to more than one Deadspin tipster a highly involved(and evolved) prank was executed on the MSU student body over the weekend during Saturday's Michigan State/Michigan basketball game. Some students at the University of Michigan posed as Big 10 interns to distribute cards to unsuspect...

Just in Time for Tax Season
Fantastic post by the Wizard of Odds, highlighting the Ohio State autograph shilling non-controversy, which seems a little sketchy considering some of these non-professional athletes are making six-figure incomes during "autograph season." According to the Wiz—via the Cleveland Plain Dealer—, some O...

Oskee-Wow-Wow
We are honored — since we've mentioned it only sparingly, though expect that to change as college hoops gets going — that so many of you have noted that we are proud graduates of the University of Illinois and have asked our opinion of the NCAA ruling that the Chief Illiniwek nickname and "symbol"...

Blogdome: The NCAA Can Screw Up Anything
• If there's a way to rectify a wrong by screwing over a student-athlete, rest assured that the NCAA will find it. [The Sports Frog] • Some excuses Rafael Palmeiro didn't come up with. [Zulkey] • It's bad enough that the Mets have collapsed. But do fans have to watch Jose Offerman too? Come on, that...

Page 3: What More Can One Say?
We don't mean to be mean. We really don't. But to pull a Tom Joad for a moment, as long as Page 3 keeps publishing stories and delaying its inevitable death, dammit, we'll be there....
