WhAts worse is that sports save peoples lives by getting people off the streets. Now u have no school and no sports guess where some kids will end up. I guarantee teen pregnancy and teen/college arrest will go up. I was all for taking this seriously but we have gone too far. Although should I have expected anything else from this PC drive world.
If it flies it dies.

Shame Dayton won't get the chance to go far in the tourney with Toppin this year.

They were ranked 3rd fave at +1000.
Similar to Killian Tillie who won't get another chance with Gonzaga!
Another team to feel bad for is Stephen F Austin. 28-3 with a win over #1 Duke. I wonder if they would have been as high as a 5, 6 or 7 seed.

This would have been a chance to be a huge upset. Kentucky definitely had more talent, BUT they threw some stinkers out there this year. If we would have came out like against Duke we would have had a chance. 2nd round - Winner of Providence and ASU. We would definitely have had a chance.
