Getting Louisville/Arizona in Chicago

Luckily, Gus Johnson is doing it or I’d be really pissed we aren’t getting OU/Syracuse.

Is anyone rooting for KS?

I want the Big 12 to make a statement but how in the world can I root for the Beakers?

Same here.

Either way, the Big 12 will look good or we’ll make it longer in the tournament than kU. Nothing wrong with either option.

Mixed emotions - I don't really want KU to be there if we're lucky enough

to make first Final Four in school history (which is NOT going to happen against UCONN)

However, I’d love to beat them to go to the final, and I’d like for the Big 12 to get half of it’s tournament entries into the Final Four. So, if kU wins, I want MU, kU and OU to ALL win.

But, finally, I can’t ever bring myself to root for them, so it’s one of those – :“if they win, they win”, to paraphrase Ivan Drago.

i am rooting for michigan state and louisville.

i do not not NOT want to see a mizzou kansas rematch. plus. if arizona wins kansas would have to play a #13, #11, and #12 seed to get to a final four. BULLSHIT.

Kinda like us playing

#11, #7, #9 to win the Big XII Title?

BS, maybe, but it’s not their (or our) fault how the bracket falls. If you don’t like this, just remember one alternative is the BCS.

I never got around last night.

So I just wanted to say congrats to all of you.

And while I (shockingly) actually kinda-sorta like Memphis, I was mostly neutral last night. But I will definitely be cheering hard for you all against UConn on Saturday.

Go Big 12, right?

Seriously, though, that was incredible. You torched the best defense in the country for over 100 points. That’s just ridiculous.

And good luck on Saturday. Maybe, we can meet up in Detroit.

That would be awesome.

by tigr on Mar 27, 2009 9:09 PM CDT up reply actions  

I don't think this is the first time this has been done....

I believe it has something to do with sight lines since they set up the court in the middle of the field so that potentially they can get 70,000 people in for a Final Four. I believe they also piloted this at one or two of the regional sites last year. Actually, the Final Four might have even had the raised court last year.

PATRICK CHEWING!

by tigr on Mar 27, 2009 9:34 PM CDT up reply actions  

So, gotta work tomorrow, no way out of it. DO I ......

1. Record the game on TiVo (doing it anyway) and try to remain unspoiled. Watch the game when I get home at 8-ish.
Chances of remaining unspoiled – probably . Saturdays are slow and not looking at RMN, ESPN, CBS or Tigerboard seems unlikely (plus, if we WIN, my wife would likely call me right after the game to celebrate unless I specifically told her not to), but I could take a movie and and watch that.

Drawback – even if I’m at work, I could call SOMEONE at the end of the game to discuss it. Pretty strange to do that 4 hours after it ends.

2. Change the channel on the facility TV system to CBS to watch the game. Problem is that I would not be guaranteed to watch the entire game.
Chances of watching the entire game – Saturdays are slow, so fairly likely. However, today we had an issue that took up the entire day, and there’s about a 20% chance that it continues tomorrow. Any other issues crop up, and I can’t watch the game, I’ve got to deal with them.

Drawback – Worst case scenario, I watch part of the 1st half, then get busy for the 2nd half. Basketball games are pretty quick and I could easily be busy the entire half. I come back in right after it ends, and I don’t get to enjoy the game at all.

I’m probably going with 2, but what would you do?

typically all video is blocked

the problem isn’t getting the game, there’s a plasma in the conference room and I have a key to the AV room and permission to change channels on the weekend.

the problem is being free to watch it. If I’m too busy to sit on the conference room computer, I’ll be too busy to watch it on my computer.

And, I’m in the middle of a warehouse (inside a data center) so radio signals are non-existent.

I'm a data center manager

If I have anything to do on the weekend, it will be working on a server, dealing with a vendor or sitting on a conference call. Only one of which I could do during a conference call, and I am supposed to report to my manager on any of those that would be important enough to have during the weekend.

Are you on the computer while you watch the game?

If you pulled off #1, would it be weird to watch the game and not be on the computer?

I think number two is the option. Just hope for the best.

plan for #1, but try for #2

So tell your wife not to call, set the TIVO, etc… Then try to watch it at work, but if you can’t or if you can only watch one half and then get called away for a significant chunk of time, go into lockdown mode, and save the rest for TIVO at home.

I find it hard

to get excited about a game between Kansas and a Big Ten(11) school. I wish they could both lose

Otherwise known as a meteor game.

Usually reserved for matchups such as KS & K-State or KS & Nebraska.

You wish a meteor would just come in and take out both teams.

This is the best game of the night.

I am still torn.

Big 12 v. my deep hatred of Kansas.

Perspective:

All Missouri fans are thrilled on some level about Kansas losing and Missouri advancing further. Enjoy it. Don’t let me stop you.

BUT, let me stress: our success is NOT a reflection of anything KU has done. If we limit what we define as success to comparing ourselves to KU, we’ve played into every negative stereotype.

Side note: WOOOOOOOO!!!

Well said.

But, you know, it is nice to be able to claim that we’re better than kansas at basketball for at least a year.

rpt YOU GOTTA READ THIS

Check your rockmnation@gmail.com email. I found a “Mizzou 2009 Final Four” Tshirt listed on the online store at mutigers.com WITHIN THE LAST 30 minutes.

Thankfully, it has already been taken down, but I sent you the webpages so we can get the anti-jinx mojo going NOW!

In 6th grade I bought this girl a horse statue because it sounded like a good idea

Well, she said she didn’t like me and I still have that damn horse statue in a box in my attic. It’s survived 8 moves and four states.

I once dropped the f-bomb reading in front of the class

back in 8th grade. We were reading The Monkey’s Paw and the principal was in the class and I came to the ‘fakir’ (I suppose it was to be pronounced like the football player’s name), but I pretty much just said it like "f*ck her…just a tad worse at a religious private school
