    In the week+ of off time the shocker guards have been gym rats and Pitt is completely unprepared for fast strong guard play. Then our D lives up to the hype in ways never seen before in the NCAAs. Shockers win 127 to 9.

      I think the shox can pull it out. I'll go with the out of conference foes don't know our stuff angle. Either I'll be in kc for the game or on the way home. Not sure how I'll catch the game with the early tip. But I missed the first two games in 06 and had to listen on the radio. Those turned out well. Maybe I'll stick to that. It's only stupid if it doesn't work.

        So this year is my five month old's first march madness. We printed off the logos of each team and showed them to him one pairing at a time. Needless to say, WSU will beat Indiana in the finals...

        ...I knew all that time he spent staring at the WuShock on my hoodie was good for something.

        .....but, statistically speaking, you miss 99% of the shots you do take.

            I already texted my boss and told him I am taking a 2 hour lunch break Thursday. Hopefully game moves quickly. If not, I guess he will just have to deal with it.

              Spelling was never a strength of mine. My editing allowed me to fix it on one spot but it still shows Pittsburg without the H on the Heading. Yikes!!! Now I will refer to them simply as Pitt and hope we beat them. I like this bracket and believe we have a great shot to beat Pitt.

                Who cares what people think, all we have to do is go out and play to our potential.
                We should be talking about the mechanics of the game.

                They have Adams as their center, and he is 7'. They have 2 forwards that are 6'9" in Taylor and Zanna. Does coach play Carl Hall and Orukpe at the same time to match up on height? I have a feeling this will be a low scoring defensive ball game.

                BTW, Pitt went 1 and 1 with Cinncinati, who Creighton is playing in the Big Dance. They are a 10 seed against Creighton's 7 seed.

                Rebounding will be a key factor, and we are pretty good ourselves.

                    At my job, it can't be done.

                    I may be able to switch lunches with my supervisor and take a later lunch to watch the 2nd half. That's my best option. She'll probably deny the request though.

                      That sucks. If you have a smart phone, you can download TuneIn Radio and listen that way. That's how I've caught many games this year. Good luck.

                        I have TuneIn. But cell reception absolutely sucks. I haven't tried to get an AM station in the building but have listened to a couple of FM stations in the past. I'll probably try to pull up 1330 tomorrow to see if that's doable. If not, it's a late lunch option. If not that, I'll just be pissed and follow SN.

                            Might be best to just record it and watch it when you get home if you can keep from having people tell you what happened.

                              That's what I normally do, but everyone I interact with knows how hardcore I am about WSU and will comment on it. I'll record the game regardless, but I can't wait until 6 without knowing/hearing something.

                                I'm in Vegas, where the game will be aired at 10:40 AM. This really sucks, perhaps the jet stream will change directions and bring that flu bug my way!
