2009 CIT Quarterfinal Bracket Update


My bracket is fantastico. 3 out of 4 final four squads. My champ and runner-up still intact. Solid. ODU, James Madison and Pacific all cruised to easy victories on the evening while Bradley just needed to hit a tiny little jump shot to move on. And by tiny little jump shot, I mean this:



Well that's a solid way to win a basketball game. All in all the CIT is an infinitely better tournament than the CBI. The CBI is strictly a business proposition their to suck college programs of money without morals. The only reason the Oregon State Beavers are in their tournament is because the coaches brother-in-law is the president. Plus they had shitty St. John's in the tournament with their losing record. Meanwhile the CIT is an honest tournament. It's a tournament for the little guys. It's teams with winning records from smaller conferences most of whom coming from 1-bid conferences. It's a good way for the little guy to get a few more games in and feel good about the season. Plus, filling out a bracket with endless possibilities is enjoyable. All in all, good job by CollegeInsider.com for starting up a fun little postseason tournament. It doesn't matter that little to nobody cares about it, it makes sense and it works.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
