    It's a Catholic college in Washington -- Jesuit, actually, named for Aloysius Gonzaga, Jesuit priest and missionary. They have a pretty good basketball team
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    It was a great first (er, sorry, second round) wasn't it? So many close games!!! And both my Bearcats (University of Cincinnati) and Wolverines (Michigan) made it to the second round. I'd love to have to choose who to root for between them in the regional finals, but I am not sure that will happen. Pretty tough teams between now and then.

    Madness Day 3! Here we go!

    Denver was definitely the place to be on Thursday -

    #12- Richmond - over #5 - Vanderbilt

    #13- Morehead State - over #4 Louisville

    #11 - Gonzaga - over #6 - St. John's


    Another 11 over a 6 last evening: VCU (Virginia Commonwealth University) beat Georgetown

    I don't have any specific favorites this year. I'm inclined to think Kansas could win it all, but can't give any reasons why.

    I love the exciting finishes, especially when Bill Raftery is announcing. He may be 68, but gets as crazy as a 10 year old doing the games

    The first big upset - Butler over #1 seed Pitt.

    No offense to the Pitt fans, but I couldn't figure out why they were a #1.

    Curious - how did you become a Michigan fan, living in Ohio and all?

    Douglas is one - being born and bred in A2. Not me, though. I like the Green and White of MSU.

    I may live in Ohio, but I am about 1.5 miles from the MI border and only 40 minutes from the U of M campus. (Versus about 2 hours from C-bus) Most of NW Ohio is pretty split in the OSU/UM battle. I sided with UM when I was around Junior High and have stayed loyal to the Maize and Blue ever since.
