These are quite possibly the best days of the entire year right here. The opening rounds of the NCAA Tournament, I love it.

2:05 p.m. - Right now I'm enjoying this Pacific-Boston College matchup. The other two games this morning were ho-hum, but this one is about to enter overtime No. 2 and is just one of those classic tournament games.

2:11 p.m. - Well, it looks like BC is going to take all the classicness out of this one as they are just starting to handle Pacific.

2:25 p.m. - I guess 2OTs is still classic, but the NCAA Tourney is all about the fantastic finishes. That game just turned into a train wreck for Pacific. Alas. Now I gotta get to class... ugh.

10:48 p.m. - Well after class and an unexpected nap I am back in my seat watching some basketball. And If Texas A&M holds on here, I'm in trouble. I thought Syracuse's recent big run would carry them past LSU. But as of now I'm still 11-of-12 and I'm happy about that.

10:55 p.m. - Two things have saddened me watching this game. First is the fact that my bracket is starting to crumble in front of my eyes. Second is the Dasani cups all along press row. I have fond memories of getting screamed at at last year's Division II Elite Eight for trying to walk out of the hospitality room with a Dr. Pepper still in its can not a Dasani cup. Ahhh... memories.

10:59 p.m. - So, uh, Gerry McNamara – overrated?
