Am I the only one?
Does anyone else have issues with the Z scroll button now working when there is a youtube in the post?

I think I broke the internet.
I was having all sorts of issues after posting the YouTube clip, so I changed it to the URL instead of Embed code. We have problems when we switch between the HTML and WYSIWYG views when a video is involved.

I've never figured out what makes Z not work

Z is working for me now, though (not sure about before, when you had that video that crashed BSD for me and gave me that error message)

and to be honest
I’m a little salty everyone had wiscy and minny so far ahead of us in the BT pecking order also.
I’m okay with just about everyone losing.
Black Shoe Diaries
I BLAME IOWA.
my bracket has many "anger" picks
where I picked schools that jumped ahead of us to lose games that normally I wouldn’t have picked them for. I think it was a combination of jealousy, anger, and “wtf, you aren’t really that good, so you’ll probably lose this game”
by The JuggerNitt on Mar 19, 2009 12:58 PM EDT up reply actions
Same here
I didn’t even pick a 12-5 upset because of anger. Wiscy made no sense, Illinois screams “second round loss”, Purdue might make it to the Elite Eight, and I simply couldn’t pick those Arizona losers to beat Utah.

Wiscy: don’t care
Minny: don’t care
Illinois: I’d like to see them win, just so all the “experts” will be wrong
MSU: don’t care
Michigan: see above
OSU: hope they lose while Brent Musburger cries in the background
Purdue: actually hope they win. They’re kinda my bandwagon team now.

Had PSU made it
I would have had no choice but to send Battle & Co. all the way, in which case I could have made this move with no regrets.

I made a change at 11:45

The last change I made was Purdue beating UConn, and Memphis beating Louisville. I’m still not sure.

Ah I have no idea
I don’t think that’s the case for me, as I could only edit mine until 12 today. My advice: sabotage.
Yeah, totally

Yeah I just checked
Everything is locked on the pool I am running. Must be a glitch or something. Since they have 43 billion brackets on that site, some are bound to have bugs.

So, Jim Calhoun is out for the weekend?
Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun won’t coach against Chattanooga and might miss a significant part of the remaining NCAA tournament because of health issues, according to two sources familiar with the situation.
The university just confirmed in a release on its website that associate head coach George Blaney would coach Thursday against Chattanooga.
The sources declined to say what exactly was wrong with Calhoun, but cautioned his absence from the tournament might last longer than this weekend. Calhoun was taken to a local hospital.
The Huskies are expected to say more at some point later in the day.
The news is stunning. At his news conference on Wednesday, the two-time national championship coach was jovial and looked fine.
Now the team will have to go at least one game without its coach.

Black Shoe Diaries
I BLAME IOWA.
by the way, does anyone have online feeds that aren't complete crap?
or is that just the norm for these streamed games?
Audio is ok, but the video is basically snapshots every 5 seconds
(I clicked the links through ESPN.com, went to cbssports.com)
I don't even want to know what would happen
if I clicked the “watch in high quality” button
I recall having similar problems last year, but as the tournament progressed it got better (either due to streaming less games, or more people watching on TV and not online, or perhaps just better tech support).

Purdue is only shooting 60% from the field
not sure how they think they can win with those crappy numbers.

Is Thabeet hurt?
I just saw that Edwards went in for him less than a minute into the game? Anyone watching?
I can't believe this
Normally I can’t get into ESPN to check my bracket online at work. But today it’s letting me through. You think the IT guys are working hard today?
I’m doing well so far. Missed on Butler, but had A&M advancing. Memphis could have been ugly. I have them going to the Elite 8. Not so sure about that anymore.

I'm actually an IT guy at the Smeal Business College
and the Smeal Alumni Association Board is having their annual meeting here today and refused to come unless we set up a TV feed to the conference room so they could watch the tourney… Just Awesome.
Purdue
Has anyone else noticed that they have a great pep band? Always something to hum along with.

Brooks
It will be good to get another glimpse at the future with Cornley out. I think Brooks and Jones will step up big time. I also hope that ED doesn’t take them out and disrupt the flow. I felt like ED did that twice against Mason.
Kath?
Geez, UNI making a game of it late.

Purdue picked a hell of a time to shoot 20% from 3-land.

I wish they would stop doing that
I have Purdue knocking off UConn, and that would look really silly if they don’t win their first round game.
Kramer
Have I ever said how much I hate that sissy? I don’t mind the rest of them, but Kramer is a wimp. He seems to be hurt all the time.

I know
I can’t believe Chattanooga scored 20 on UConn either. I mean at this point in the Penn state Illinois game the score was PSU 19, ILL 19

it isn’t football season yet (though I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess you didn’t mean the Catholic version)

Can't Wait
for WTAJ to piss me off more than they already do and switch to the Villanova game in the middle of a 10-7 game.
