King's Things: News & Views from the tournament


Indianapolis, Indiana, hello... No Love for Starbury has this pretty much wrapped up. Even if Vincent Young owes me $500 got the LSU win and all three bonus-point picks correctly, he would still lose by two. It would be his second tough loss in a row after also losing the football pool by the slimmest of margins when Texas somehow beat USC... The loud cursing you may have heard Monday morning was Broyles picking up the paper and reading Mike Anderson took the job at Missouri... Who doesn’t love yarn?... My Craziest Pick of the Tournament award goes to Smitty and Hoppy for taking Florida A&T in the NIT... Call me crazy, gang, but I am taking Triple H to win at Wrestlemania... Better late than never: Well, Kensucky, you did it again... Can anyone tell me what is the deal with that Hollister store in the mall?... The top three entrants in the standings had one thing in common – they all had LSU and UCLA in the Final Four... It should not smell like IHOP up in church... Is Auburn still playing hoops these days?... I liked NOW 21 better the first time when it was called turning on the radio... They put Kevin Harlon and John Thompson on the radio and Packer and Nantz on television???... My annual prediction for Razorback football: Wally will mention the words “Malzahn” and “fellowship” in the first column excusing the performance of the high school offense... Discount Records was a better way to get music to the people... Those black Irish jerseys Notre Dame wore in the NIT had House of Pain written all over them... I still say they canceled “Friends” before it was given a chance... Before there was Young Jeezy, there was old Weezie... In my day reality television meant kick the balloon on the Bozo show... Iowa in the title game? nWo Doug’s Book of Haiku must have filled out his bracket in low lighting and thought it was the NIT championship... “Bravo” is what the fans say when Wayne Messmer sings the national anthem... Kobe sucks. Just wanted to throw that out there... There are scams and then there is the hardback/paperback angle of the book industry... The Colonial Athletic Association? It’s not even a sports conference... There’s AI’s crossover, then there’s Jessie Johnson’s Cross Over... I still say Tiger Woods is the flavor of the month... Stay tuned for Open Phone America.

Final Four standings

Here are the standings through Sunday's games heading into the Final Four. The number behind the name is the number of Final Four teams picked correctly, and it's followed by the champion (listed first) and runner-up picks for each entrant. Thirteen people had UCLA in the Final Four, seven picked Florida, four picked LSU, and of course no one in their right mind took George Mason, which gave everyone some negative points with Sunday's win. Only eight brackets still have the possibility of points remaining, not including the NIT, NBA, and women's champ bonus points.

131 - Vincent Young owes me $500 (2, UConn/LSU)

81 - The "O.C." Factor (1, Duke/Illinois)
80 - Rock Chalk (0, Duke/UConn)
77 - The Yuen Wo-Ping Fight Team (0, UConn/Duke)

* ATMP's UConn pick was written in on the wrong side of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette's semi-confusing bracket and wouldn't have counted.

King's Things: News & Views from the first weekend


Eric B. make ‘em clap to this... No Love for Starbury has turned in the bracket of the tournament so far. Not only does he still have all Final Four teams left, but he’s picked several upsets along the way, including having Wichita State advance this far as a moneyball team... I liked “The Matrix” better the first time when it was called “Tron”... Don’t look now but DJ Jazzy Josh and the Get Fresh Brew is in second place after his bracket finally arrived in the mail Monday all the way from Massachusetts... Do you guys like Taco Bell?... Mya Flunt gets the award for best upset picks. No one else correctly picked a George Mason vs. Wichita State match-up, and he has George Mason as a moneyball team... Iowa in the Final Four? Sapientior and V for Vratsinas must be drinking from the same bottle... Note for next year that some of you already know: the Wall Street Journal has one of the best selection Monday tournament sections... If you are one of the five entrants who picked Georgetown in the Sweet Sixteen, salud... There has never been a better tribute to Sanford & Son than that of the human LinnDrum Ready Rock C... With 36 total entries, the winner of this is going to get $180 in addition to the Escobar Cup and subscription to Slam... Yes, Adam Morrison of Gonzaga pulls down the points and rebounds, but the stat they don’t give you is his mustache’s assist with the ladies... At what point did Mike Nail and Rick Schaeffer turn into Schiavone and Tenay... Boogaloo Watts offers this commentary on why he did not enter the tournament this year: “In past competitions, I would seek the advice of basketball mavens, but few in Texas give a rat’s a$$ about basketball, so advice is not readily available. However, in these days of American decline in basketball and baseball, your forum reminds me Uncle Sam will always dominate professional wrestling. In that sense, the terrorists have not and cannot win.”... Has there ever been a player better suited for the 40 Minutes of Hell style than UAB’s Squeaky Johnson?... The women’s tournament needs a play-in game, too? Come on, man... If you could time travel Gerry McNamara of Syracuse back to the Bird-era Celtics, he and Jerry Schisting would be the ultimate backcourt... Wayne Larivee doing the Big Ten tournament has been the nicest surprise of March Madness. Ring it up!... Special thanks to The Teacher for his generous donation to the Dr. Judo Organizing Committee... More news coming next week.

Friday thread: I think I'm already out

How many people already have a Great Eight team eliminated? I do. Thanks, Marquette. Today I will be celebrating my second final eight team being eliminated when Penn loses to Texas. Call me crazy, gang, but I think they know how to straight ball in the Ivy League. After seeing all those overtime games yesterday, I've decided on a new rule for next year -- any game that goes into overtime instantly becomes worth two extra points. If you're looking for standings after day one, the first standings will be released Saturday morning. I do them round by round. Mike Anderson is up at 8:45 p.m. tonight against Kentucky. Should be a good one.

As always, post away your trash talk by clicking "Comments" below.

Thursday thread: Talk your trash and check scores


Did you just score a big upset? Has your championship pick already been knocked out? Click the comment link at the bottom of this post and talk your trash or vent some frustration.

The best place for Thursday's schedule and updated scores as games are in progress is right here at the CBS Sportsline NCAA Scoreboard. First tip is at 11:20 a.m. with Seton Hall and Wichita State from Greensboro, N.C., site of many great Ric Flair matches. Let the games begin.

Who's in the NIT? Here's your answer

The NIT actually has a bracket these days, which can help you immensely in making your NIT bonus pick. Follow the link for the NIT bracket courtesy of CBS Sportsline.

2006 NIT presented by Pitino

Another look at the rules

There is a $5 entry fee. The winner gets the pot of money, the traditional one-year subscription to Slam magazine, and the Escobar Cup.

Fill out your NCAA bracket, put it in an envelope with $5, and mail it to the previously provided address. All entries must be mailed no later than Wednesday.

You also have the option of e-mailing or faxing your bracket and paying through PayPal. Just let me know, and I'll send you an invoice to pay online.

The basic scoring system is one point for the play-in game (if you mail your bracket by Tuesday), two points for first-round games, four for second-round, six for third-round, and you don't stop. The 8 vs. 9 games in the first round are worth three points each.

Each entrant should select three teams -- one from among the 2-4 seeds, one from the 5-7 seeds, and one from the 10-12 seeds -- as your designated moneyball teams. Each of these teams will be worth three points extra for each win.

There is a plus/minus system for upsets with more than a five-seed difference. For instance, if a seventh seed beats a second seed, you get half the point value of the game added as a bonus to the points you were already getting for the win. But if you picked the second seed that loses, you get half the value of the game subtracted. If this seems too complicated, don¹t worry about, just pick the teams.

For bonus points (worth six points each), include with your entry your pick for the winner of the NIT and the NCAA women¹s tournament champion. For eight bonus points, pick the NBA team with the best record from March 16-April 2.


Summing up:

Fill it out an NCAA tournament bracket with your picks.

Write down your three moneyball teams.

Add your pick for the NCAA women's winner, NIT winner, and NBA team with best record.

Write down your real name and a fake name or organization for standings updates.

Put this in an envelope with $5, or e-mail or fax your bracket and ask for a PayPal invoice. (Fax number given on request.)

Friends, co-workers, and family members can also enter. One entry per person.

Sports Illustrated columnist on Billy Packer

As I've mentioned every year during the tournament in one form or another, Packer and Nantz have no business being the No. 1 broadcast crew in college basketball. Nantz's "enthusiasm," if you can call it that, is suited for a golf broadcast where whispers and quiet claps are the norm, not in the world college basketball.

Then there's Packer. This columnist from Sports Illustrated wrote a great column on Packer. Take a look at a few excerpts:

It's easy to be critical of Packer's commentary, but it's impossible to slam him for being biased or partial. He hates everything and every team with seemingly genuine equality. Despite living every fan's dream, being paid to watch the best basketball games in the country from a front-row seat, Packer last praised a play in 1965. Since then, it's been nothing but "questionable decisions" and "shaky coaching."

Nothing seems too ridiculous to be a target of his rants. Packer could rip the Globetrotters for their lack of fundamentals. You can almost hear him say, "Now I'm all for dunking off a ladder and a trampoline, but you have to put it down with two hands. James Naismith must be rolling in his grave. And that bucket of confetti? This is a travesty!"

It would be interesting to see if Packer openly takes these kinds of shots at everyone. Does he take waitresses aside and tell them they'll never be great if they don't learn how to move without the order? When a mechanic messes up an oil change, does he console the young man and tell him it's not his fault he received subpar coaching at JiffyLube? Hopefully his wife has just given up on trying to cook a dinner that doesn't receive one of Packer's famous, "I just don't see how what she was thinking here. Mashed potatoes AND rice? Let's go back to the drawing board with these starches." No one would be surprised if Packer had been banished to eating at Denny's every night for the last 20 years, where the wait staff has become accustomed to him yelling, "You call this coffee?! This will NOT WORK as coffee!"


Get ready for your fill of the crabby CBS broadcaster

Dr. Judo strategy session: NBA bonus pick

There's more to picking the NBA bonus than just going with the team with the best record. Two things to keep in mind are the team's place in the playoff seeding and schedule during the designated time period. For instance, a team assured of a #1 or #2 seed going down the stretch may choose to rest their top scorers as they begin prep for the first round of the playoffs. On the other hand, a team fighting between a #4 seed and a #5 seed is going to go all out to win and no one is getting any rest. And a team that may be a lower seed in the playoffs might have a really easy schedule -- like the Knicks, Charlotte, and Atlanta -- all in the span of three weeks. Then again, sometimes the best teams can't be stopped regardless, so maybe it's best to ignore this advice.

Disclaimer: Dr. Judo is in no way liable for monetary loss resulting from this strategy.
