NCAA Thoughts

[dlgood]

The NCAA Tournament Pool has reached a Final Four. Depending upon the National Champion, the pool winner will be:
Connecticut - sistakaren; Duke - durham Entry 1, h. yiu; tung, Georgia Tech - dlgood; Oklahoma State - stars91

At this point, based upon talent on the floor, I'd favor Connecticut. Based upon the quality of wins throughout the tournament, I'd say Oklahoma State.

I did vote in the NCAA/Pontiac "All Tournament Team" online, though I have something of a lesser qualification since the first tournament I can remember actually following was 1982, when Patrick Ewing and Michael Jordan were college Freshman. My picks:

C Lew Alcindor, UCLA 1967-1969 (Kareem Abdul Jabbar)
F Christian Laettner, Duke 1989-1992
F Jerry Lucas, Ohio State 1960-1962
G Gail Goodrich, UCLA 1963-1965
G Bobby Hurley, Duke 1990-1993

I was going post deep thoughts on one topic or another, but I'm just gonna veg.

Does anybody want to make me a PFD Panda Icon?

I'd almost rather see Georgia Tech or Conniticut win instead of Oklahoma State, even though that's who I picked. One of the guys at my office will win our pool if OK wins, and I'd just as soon see anyone but him with the pot money, so I'm rooting in another direction!

Finished up my voting for the Pontiac All Tournament Team. I doubt many of my guys will be picked, as I voted more for who I liked and not for who was probably the best player for that position. And no, I did not choose Steve Alford for one of the guards! Not to say I didn't give it a little thought though! *g* I did have to go with Isiah Thomas, as he has *always* been my favorite Hoosier!!!

And I'd have loved to vote for Juan Dixon, but he just wasn't on the list.
