Tonight is the NCAA men's final. My heart's with Carolina, being an ACC fan from way back. So far they haven't worked up a sweat with any team and Michigan State shouldn't give them a scare either, but home court and some lucky breaks could make things interesting. I'm going with the heels and their superior depth to win by only 7 in a thriller. Which means I finally support Obama on something. Crud, I said no politics! Sorry.
Speaking of home field advantage, the baseball season is in the process of restarting today with George W. Bush making a splash in Arlington by throwing out the first pitch. Isn't it amazing to see him stroll out there and whip one down the middle with ease? Quite a contrast to this poor guy!

Wow, what a frantic pace. The Carolina team is simple overwhelming this State crew.

Who picked North Carolina to win. Yeah, there I go again.

Didn't have a dog in the fight. UNC was just too strong down the stretch. If there is such a thing, they were the team of destiny this year. It was theirs to lose.
Take nothing away from MSU, they were good. They beat two #1 seeds to get to the final. UNC just matched up against the Spartans very well.
But more than anything else, I don't think anyone had a chance to beat them. UConn, Louisville, no team would have stopped them.
Lawson was the MVP thru the tourney, without question. I'm glad to see some of those seniors rewarded for staying in the program.
