I know pretty much everyone here(except me) is down on this year's Final Four, after seeing three blowouts in a row. Sports Illustrated's website has a good article on how it happened.

I thought this one one of the best tournaments ever! I twas even better since UCLA went to the finals, but there were some great games and upsets along the way!

I love how upbeat you are!

Great regionals but lousy final four, IMO. Overall, it was a lot of fun, even if I got spanked in the Org pool.

What can I say? I my college hoops!
Next year should be a great year! Can't wait!

hey, I watched the women's final last night. It was a better game than the men's.....more dramatic and it went into overtime. I'm just glad Duke lost

Women's sports outside of tennis, track and field and gymnastics should be OUTLAWED.

It's so wrong, but CO-SIGN!

Seriously, when the news flash is that a woman managed to do two half-assed dunks in a game, you're in trouble. Boring. But be honest, women's gymnastics puts away the men's. Well, I guess you'd have to call it lil girl gymnastics puts away the men's, but you know what I mean. And women's tennis is lots of hotness.

We "C" eye to eye.

But what about bowling? I took it in college, so it should count! And hockey, that's a hardcore sport. I don't care for it, but it takes alot of skill.

u2prnce said:

lol.bowling? Talk about activities....

Graycap23 said:

It was a joke, dude. The whole 50 min class was bowling a game. That's all. We had to pass a test at the end of the semester on scoring. And my friend had to drop out because he was failing it. Yes, failing bowling.

Ah, college.

Graycap23 said:

if track and field is a sport, so is x-country skiing, biatholon, etc.

i think my cut-off is smiling. If you are required to smile, its not a sport. Which would include figure skating, I suppose.

wrestling is not a sport?

Stax said:

Professional or amateur? lol It just seems wrong to say what Hulk Hogan does is a sport. I mean, he's been in movies (No Holds Barred!!) but no one calls him an actor.

Oh, and snowboarding is for damn sure a sport.

u2prnce said:

definitely amateur. pro-wrestling is entertainment.

Stax said:

Imagine lined up against Carl lewis in the 100 meter dash. Come on now.....

Graycap23 said:

I don't think he's arguing with track and field; he's just saying that those other sports should be considered 'real' also.

u2prnce said:

I dig.....I just can't see every lil thing we do as a sport. Like golf.....if that is a sport so is sleeping.

Graycap23 said:

I don't know about golf, but track and field is definitely a sport.
