The pairing of North Carolina and Georgetown in the same portion of the bracket was more than an ironic coincidence. It was purposely staged. Just as was the first round matchup of Butler and Old Dominion. The selection committee shrewdly concocted the perception that...Away From the Land of Fairy-Tale Lies, Into the Valley of the Sun
While on one of my usual late-night Internet sports news trolling adventures I ran across a post that represented a departure in subject matter for an always insightful site I read nearly every day (sorry Jonathan, I space every once in awhile) - Sports Media Review. The...Sports On My Mind

In addition to growing physically and gaining the strength that comes with another year on Earth, Durant needs to grow emotionally, a...A Request for Kevin Durant (and Some Praise for Rick Barnes)
