There are three games into the season of college basketball (I wonder if one of these imitations CBI is still pending -. If only there was a way to understand Oh well.), and two of them tonight. Here they are, my rooting interest in bold.

ncaa final four

FIRST GAME      : (8) vs. Butler (11) Commitment - If only there was a way both teams could win this game. I throw my support behind efforts for three reasons: I like the way the Rams rock gold and black, Shaka Smart is a heckuva name, and see Butler in a Final Four game will give me flashbacks of last year sad.

SECOND GAME: (4) vs. Kentucky (3) Connecticut - If only there was a way both teams could lose this match. I do not see myself rooting for both teams in this game, I do not give a rat's Patootie wins. I have nothing positive to say here, so we should be silent.

Enjoy the game yo Everyone...
