March Madness has turned into April Abeyance.

Concerning the Final Fours, who west of the east really cares?

The eastern and southeastern parts of the country so dominate men's basketball that from the heartland on west, the only connection with post-season play is an also-ran tournament.

The NIT didn't even draw flies the other night, barflies or house flies.

What the women's Final Four should do is make up a team from the three pretenders to play Uconn.

On a more interesting note, there are only 198 days left before OU-Texas in the Cotton Bowl.

I can't believe that you counted up the days to the Cotton Bowl. Actually, I am impressed that you are able to count.

What are the big ten rules.....of what? LOL!

It's not math that they rule. 11 teams in a conference named Big Ten.

After what the Big Ten has done in football this last decade, it owes the nation a little something when it comes to sports action.

Anything but the Big East, Anything but Weepy Williams and NC, those are our mottos.

Which leaves Mich State doesn't it.

May the NIT/PICKER/WITTER rest in peace. He died in jail. Thank you. Arbythree, can I have potato cakes with that? IDIOT!! Travis Ford, still waiting on a phone call, hello?, hello? sorry honey it wasn't Kentucky calling,,,again.\

My head hurts after trying to read OSUNDN's garbled nonsense.
Maybe I have to go to OSU to understand that kind of drivel.

Snicker is right! If u care go ahead & watch “4 step, no travel, & pushin’ & shoving no calls” & then call touch fouls, where “the Michael Jordan” push offs are accepted as part of the game. Then of course, it takes 30 minutes to finish the last 2 minutes of the game.

The ladies can watch the We & Bravo channels as they run another “I hate men” marathon while the guys can watch golf, tennis, or women’s bodybuilding.

Final Four/Master week begins the dreaded 4 month countdown of hearing about the over eulogized greatness of these ‘pump up, ‘Roid infused baseball players that care more about their stock portfolio’s than they do about the game.

Thank you for beach volleyball

Which is more exciting? NASCAR, MLB, or Celebrity possum huntin‘?

Here are some picking thoughts: Villanova figures to get obliterated.

Mich State figures to stay close.

Out Pick The Picker

The Picker began entertaining – and infuriating – sports fans in 1993. Each week during football season, he writes about his picks of college and NFL games in his Thursday Sports column. He's never afraid of sharing his opinions about the game and the personalities who play it. Readers have a chance to go against him each season in the Outpick the Picker contest. He welcomes the competition.
