Yes sports fans you are finally indulged with the crowning of a champion that is not your normal pedigree....
The Big 10 LEFT THE BIULDING ,as DID Dukeless,... North Carolina is HISTO as is the storied and overated UCLA. The only chance that the basketball establishment has is ever present Kansas ....their chance of beatin' the Tigers are slim and none.....Kansas is a very good basketball team a noble team with years of banners and championships under their belt s .The Jayhawk fans in flyover country are avid and crazy ....for some their whole being ...for those people.... i will feel your pain ....
It was historic that Memphis buried UCLA at the Alamo-dome . Davey Crockett must be turnin' in his grave..i witnessed the best guard in the tourney , freshman.Derrick Rose .His quote will be college and pro folklore . Rose said "we were just out their HOOPIN". if your HOOPIN" 'you got nothin' to worry about."
ANY WHO , the Tigers Johnny Cal is an underrated coach who has never been given his due by the conservative basketball world .... he is not an outcast but not an insider ....Memphis is by far the superior team in all categories ....they could actually beat many NBA squads
the line is pick-em which means whoever wins ... in my book it's a steal . I would of put the line ... Memphis -6 ...they should go HOOPIN' and win this National Championship by double digits on Monday Nite.......EASY MONEY......
hey lets not plan the parade just yet???? who would have thunk this would be the final folks???? and yea yea yea you can tell you me had this all written down before hand !!! easy to say now!!!! when the final has the tigers victors !!!!!!! then !!!!! gosh in this day and age of UPSETS be very carefull!!!!

Kelly your on fire ... remember its only my opinion....unfortunatly for my critics i'm in the high 90's in my title predictions... (all sports college and pro )
and further more i'm on my way to the orleans in las vegas to bet the game ....
WOOOOOOHHHHHHH........there chief. Memphis beating MANY NBA squads? I realize it is just a sarcastic remark, but I don't know if they would be able to beat a SINGLE NBA team if given 100 tries. The pathetic Knicks and Heat would still beat them by 20.
As for already crowning Memphis as champs....hmmmmmm........ The 4-headed monster in the post of Arthur, Jackson, Kaun, and Aldrich should prove to be very formidable task for the Tigers to deal with. Dorsey and Dozier only have 10 fouls. It could be a very significant problem for Memphis. Rose and CDR are incredible, but so are Chalmers, Rush, Robinson, and Collison on the perimeter for the Hawks. This is FAR from a mismatch. KU only has to limit 1 of 2 players to be effective. Memphis has 3 or 4 options from KU that can score 20 or more in a game to deal with.
I favor Memphis as well, but I definitely don't view it as a lock by any stretch of the imagination.
hey nostra, i respect your opinion , but i wager 365 days per year and it takes conviction and balls ... i may be wrong but i doubt it if you check my archives over the last three years i win 90 % of the time in big games .... just for fun follow johnny cal's players to the nba
as for derrick rose if he leaves he will be a lottery pick and nba star and starter
i can name 10 teams he could start for to include memphis, new york t-wolves etc.
chill out you sound like a fan not a handi-capper .. further more if i lose your the type that will jive me ... i wont hear from you if i win and collect .... everyone is allowed an opinion hope yours is bullet proof.....good luck with kansas ...i do not gloat when i win its bad karma ... have a great day .... in fly-over....

Sorry Tiger. I didn't really mean to come off as harsh as you are thinking. You might want to check out my thoughts on my latest blog. Derrick Rose is a VERY special talent. No doubt about it. Likely a top 5, and maybe even 2nd pick in the upcoming NBA draft. Like you pointed out, I'll take Memphis as well, and yes I WILL be here if they don't win. I just think that Kansas has a much stronger chance of winning than you are giving them credit for. I used to gamble 365 days a year much like yourself. But have now limited myself to horse racing. In my humble opininion the true art of the gambling profession. I'll wager on the game, but I'm sure it will pale in comparison to the number of $'s you will throw at it. In all honesty, I hope you do well.
Personally, I loved seeing the overrated Tarheels/ACC go down after leaving their home state advantage. Memphis has to be favored, but if Kansas can get hot as they did early against NC, Memphis' free throw issue could return.
Hoping for a close game...

Tiger....glad I don't bet college b-ball. I had UCLA in finals.....Memphis is he real deal, but Kansas looks like a team under the radar...they may sneak another won. The only thing I am looking forward to is One Shining Moment....both of these teams do nothing for me...I really wanted to see UCLA-UNC. That would have been a great game.
ewwwwwwwwwww i had oregon playing in the finals???? but then again i bet i would win the publshers clearinghouse sweepstakes without byeing books or magazines!!!!!!!
NOSTRADOMUS......your da man ...you have good sports insights...when you pull the trigger like i do you need to get yourself all hyped up .... your right the game must be played....
NBA..... your right on i also wanted some team that didn't have same ole all over again....
LISA H... for us BB junkies it wouldn't matter who was playin' for all the marbles...UCLA HAS PROVED TO ME CHOKING IS A REAL THING... HOW BOUT' DAVIDSON???... WHEN MEMPHIS WINS YOU WILL HAVE A TREAT WHEN THEY INTERVIEW D. ROSE
JOKER...great minds think alike i had wisky playin' memphis in the big game thougt both NC and KANSAS good but overated
SISHUSKER... don't want to rain on your parade good luck with KANSAS......
KELLYSCOT....your truely a great piece of work..
HAPPY TRAILS......
tigervidmar Your boys went a hoopin' and a holllerin' and in the end had come home cryin' with their tails between their legs . More's the pity as they should've closed out the game when they had the chance to do so.
That's what the great teams are able to do in the end and not just hope to be anointed as being great.
