he will surely say he went to paly golf, or some such trash
poor tweety does not take losing well

when did he have kansas getting bounced out of the tourney??

BIRD33's picks were beyond terrible. He had Kansas getting beat by Georgetown and Georgetown making the Final Four. Georgetown got beat in Round 2. He didn't have Memphis in the Final four or Sweet 16 either. Totally embarassing. I can see why he has run away. I love you.

He's in Charlotte. He didn't lose anything really. I noticed I ended up taking 3rd in 8's pool. Yay for me.

I believe he picked them losing in the Elite 8. He thinks he knows something about Kansas basketball.

ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK, fucking haters.....

I think I said in this thread I'd be away on business during the final.Imagine actually contributing to society rather than just living off memorys of productive days past.Maybe you'll have the balls to get into the pool next year if still alive so your criticisms here will have some validity and you won't look like you have a hard on for me so much.

[BIRD33]

Has everyone noticed how BIRD33 has tucked his tail and ran since he got his ass handed to him so badly in the basketball pool? I predict that he will be back after he dries his tears and defend all of his predictions that turned out so horrible. I love you.

Congrats on your win.I say that the same way I congratulate the mother of four who knows shit about sports who wins a football pool in an office.

My picks were horrible.Most of the games I picked wrong came down to the wire with my teams choking.I won this thing last year on pure basketball knowlege and will win it next year.I will bet on that.

Congrats on the win.Self has with a little luck become a good coach.

I don't think you can talk to an objective basketball fan who will tell you Kansas won that rather than Memphis handed it to them.Down nine with a minute and a half to go and all Memphis had to do was hit one foul shot out of six to seal it?That other guard besides rose is the biggest choke artist I've seen in a final since Chris Webber.You arent going to accept this but they just got lucky.

I'll say this. Memphis didn't look like the same team in the final. And the last part of the game, looked like a completely different team. But even Kansas looked like they were getting off their game during the last few minutes. If I had money on Kansas with a couple of minutes left in the game, I'd have sold my bet for 50 cents on the dollar.

I'm still suprised that no one in this pool picked Memphis to win it all. And I think only two picked Kansas. When I pulled up the Vegas odds, Kansas was a big favorite with the odds makers. I love you.

I think most people thought Memphis was a very athletic team but not a smart one.They sucked at free throws all year which is a sign of a unreliable team.Calipari didnt do them any favors in the final minutes or in overtime.I was drunk as hell but I remember them fouling to get kansas on the line when I would have still played them straight up.I was sitting in my hotel room during the final minute of regulation saying to myself I can't believe Calipari is going to win a national championship.There was no reason to let Chalmers have that much room for the three to tie it.All they had to do was guard him close and force him to take a two or just give him a layup and then inbound the ball and get fouled.Game would have been over.

I guess what makes college ball fun, is that they nearly always choke in the finals. I agree about them starting the fouls so early. I think there were 3 or 4 minutes left in the game when they started sending them to the line. I couldn't believe it. If they had just made a couple of those foul shots it would have been game over. And then that last 3 was crazy. No one in their right mind could have seen that game going to overtime with more than a minute left on the clock. That game was won by the team that choked less than the other one in the final 5 minutes.

It was the hack a Shaq strategy the NBA employs.One starter for Memphis was shooting 30% from the line for the year.I could shoot better than that with my opposite hand.You get a 30 thousand a year schlolarship, treated like a king and practice every day in a 100 million dollar facility with coaches to help you.Thats fucking pathetic.

Non objectively I will say Kansas got extremely lucky. Last 4 minutes my head was in my hands. Any team winning the National Championship has to have a little luck to get there. I think any basketball fan has to give up to Kansas for not getting down in the last 2 minutes, nutting up, and stealing the game from Memphis. Memphis got out played because they thought they had won it. They had already started the celebration. Give it up to Mario, fucker hit the 2nd greatest shot in Championship game history. Unbelievable.

One thing about Roy is he wears his emotions on his sleeve (and his former schools mascot on his shirt, what a joke)...its come back to bite him in the ass multiple times.

Good coaching by Self. You could say he coached them back into the game.

When the team shoots less than 65% from the line only a retard wouldnt employ that strategy when down late in a game.

Tell that to Mississippi State, they didn't buy into it.

Bill Self's box-and-one on Rose slowed CDR down as well...kept it close, but I'm sure you were too drunk to remember what defense they were runnning.

They got beyond lucky.I still stick with they were handed it.I'm giving Kansas credit but it was more Memphis choking then Kansas coming back.One foul shot and its over.

Jordans shot and the NC state game.Two better shots to win a title.Give me some time and I can come up with more.Its in the top ten.

Miss St is good?

I remember that but Rose was basically playing guard by himself.CDR was beyond terrible.
