Final Four

[Weeble]

SO who is it going to be?

[Arkstfan]

Well I WANT it to be George Mason, but LSU is just unreal at times.

[spurly]

Since I just saw this poll, I'll pick Florida.

[segell]

Well, I'm picking Flordia!!

[twd]

Arkansas beat Florida this year, so...  Woo Pig Sooey!

With the new NBA age minimums, the traditionally stronger conferences and teams should get stronger, and the overall parody should lessen. Thus, this may be the last year that we see such a Final Four bracket...

Probably not. Only a fraction of collegiate players see any basketball career at all after finishing/leaving school. What you will see is the move to parity move at a faster pace. What has kept the power conferences relatively "strong" is their reluctance to schedule mid-maior conferences like the Missouri Valley. What could likely happen is some sort of mandatory scheduling by the big conferences of a wider variety and higher quality of non-conference teams. The NCAA will soon realize that there is a lot of money to be made by cultivating the George Masons of the NCAA.

I do agree that the NBA has become a parody of the team sport of basketball.

My thoughts, too.  It's the only basketball league where the number of steps you may take without being called for travelling increases proportionally to your celebrity.

I voted two days after the game, wonder if I got it right!  Hmm, I would have preferred Illinois.

What was wrong with my grammar?
