I won't be watching any game on Thursday because the next games are on Saturday. I will definitely be watching then because I am really interested in welcoming FAU to CKA and the AAC. Hopefully for a good ol' whipping.

I don't even remember the last championship game I watched. If I had to guess, it was Keith Smart hitting the game winner for Indiana. Don't know why, I've just never been a fan of the pomp and circumstance surrounding the final game.

Not picking on you specifically, but this is why I think the opining that "March is the greatest month of sports" is so overrated.
The first weekend of March Madness is great. Wall-to-wall basketball for four straight days. Just about anyone can get into that. When Furman had the frantic rally (or Virginia had the epic collapse, take your pick), social media buzzed over that one, no matter who your favorite team was.
After that though, it's only fun if your team is still playing. K-State-Michigan State was a great ballgame. Lots of drama. Fantastic play. Heart-pounding ending. Yet, I noticed a deafening silence from those who usually chirp about how college basketball is so awesome. Why? I propose that once your team is out, the excitement of March Madness significantly diminishes. After K-State lost, I am pretty sure that my wife didn't see a second of any of the other three games this weekend.
For the record, I vote for October as the best sports month. Baseball playoffs are firing up. Football is in full gear (at all levels). NBA gets started with college basketball right around the corner. That's just good stuff all around.

Not that I necessarily like it either, but if you want WSU basketball to be successful in any meaningful way, you're going to have to be okay with other teams bidding for players, because we will be doing the same things.

This is the most into a Final Four I've been since the Shox where there. Can't wait to watch FAU v SDSU. Both teams are very talented and fun to watch and I hope one of those two wins the Natty.

Now if you really want to see insufferable, check out the Phog. A bunch of people griping about UConn possibly getting one more natty than the Jayhawks, griping because of a lack of "bluebloods" in the final four surely is ruining their tourney. They are opining that there won't be any fans in Houston and since Kansas and the other "bluebloods" are out, ratings surely will suck. Those are the type of people I like to troll. And Missouri State fans.
