Post; The Reason I've Stopped Watching NCAA College Basketball


http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/ncaato...pat&id=4007781



All the big programs are taking over... No longer is it, as Dick so eloquently put it, "Upset city baby." It's boring. When you can call the Sweet 16 while naming the biggest names in basketball, March Madness doesn't seem so crazy anymore, it's predictable. It's no fun without the George Masons, the West. Kentucky's, etc...

I still like Gonzaga and Xavier though. They're outsiders still.

Yeah... Gonzaga isn't really consistent, but they're getting better and better.

Arizona was the only team I was surprised to see get into the Sweet 16. But I still watch. Its an addiction. If I turn it off, I go into convulsions.

I was GLAD Arizona made it... Honestly, I hope Zona takes it all the way, just because they're the only TRUE underdog.

I'd like to see them make the Final Four, but I don't want them to go ALL the way. I want my Heels to take the title. But then I'm just a silly fan like that.

Eh. They're still a powerhouse in an off year though.

Still, they don't compare to the likes of UNC, Louisville, Duke (easy yall. They're a good team, you can't deny it.) etc.

Noooooooooooo, they aren't a good team. They just have a coach that makes them LOOK like a good team. Even a diehard UNC fan like me has to admit that Coach K is one of the best. But shhhhhhhhh!!! Don't tell anyone I said so.
