MADNESS

After a brutal start to the day yesterday, I came back in a BIG-TIME way.

My bracket wasn’t looking so good – losing 2 of the first 3 games on Thursday afternoon.  BYU and Butler let me down.

But I proceeded to go 11-0 the rest of the way (including my Western Kentucky upset pick; and surviving a scare in the UCLA/VCU game) to finish with a 14-2 record thus far.  Not bad at all.

And so far – with four games underway on day 2 as I’m writing this – I’m looking good to go 4-0 at this point.  We’ll see — it’s early.

THANKS JOEY

In case you missed it last night, Joey Graham was in-studio on the “Hoops” show with Jonesy, Jack Armstrong, and me. 

Audio of the interview is available as a podcast here:  http://www.fan590.com/onair/hoops/  and it’s in the Audio On Demand section of this website as well.

If you’d like to check out a couple of the pictures from Joey G’s appearance, check this out:  http://www.fan590.com/media/media.jsp?content=20090320_093051_5532

THE “P” WORD

I won’t say it.  I haven’t said it for about a month now.

However, the players aren’t quitting on the PLA_ _ _ _ _ just yet. 

Chris Bosh said this morning that Toronto has to look to run the table over their last 14 games – and play like one of the hottest teams in the NBA – if the Raps hope to make it into the PO_ _  SEAS_ _.

Considering how this year has gone, I’m sure none of you (and me) think it’s a legit possibility … but … for what it’s worth … Toronto does have 11 of their final 14 games against teams under .500

- Remember, Jonesy and I are on the air at 7:00pm with the call of the Raptors and Bobcats.  And we’ll be on the air after the game as well, with “The Rap”
