The selection and post-selection shows are finished and the brackets are all over the net waiting to be printed. By the way, if you’re in the States and you need help with your picks, make sure to pick up a copy of the Monday USA Today. They always, in my opinion, have the best coverage [...]

Now that the Olympics are over it is time for me to officially start my commentary on the NCAA basketball season. In our group it has been discussed that there is not a clear cut group of number ones and even more so, number twos. Based on the rankings right now (which seeding is not [...]
