Rickhouse and I are both picking
UNC to win it.
My Final 4: Louisville, UNC, Duke, Memphis (UNC over Louisville)
We reek of creativity.
Rooting Interests: Michigan (me), Illinois (Rickhouse), Big Ten (Ugh, I guess), The prospect of an all-Big East Final 4, Stephen Cur-- oh, wait
Hating Interests: Duke...and is that it? Most of the teams are pretty likable.
Who should be our bandwagon blue chip team (1-seed/2-seed)? Memphis?
No, I don't like Memphis. I'd actually list them under my hating interests. Rose should have stayed either in the city (DePaul) or gone to a Big 10 school. I would have even preferred to see him at a traditional power like UNC or UCLA than with Memphis. The only way Memphis got him is because they paid him, I think that's pretty obvious. Coach Cal is way too used car salesman-like for me. Plus, they get no extra points for playing in that weak ass conference either.
MSU is among my rooting interests, as well. I think they have a legit shot at the Final Four. Truly the Big 10's only hope.
I guess my other rooting interest would be any team with guys from Chicago. I'd love to hate Kansas, but can't with Sherron leading the way. Marquette with Jerel McNeal, Gonzaga with Pargo, and even Northern Iowa with my buddy Scott's guy John Moron (the next Jason Richards). Go those guys.
No. 1 seed! Ha!

Vote or die. Or something.
'Bout damn time we got the bid we deserved.
