So who should I root for in the Final Four?
Midlo's UConn Huskies or risk making her DTM list...
BeachBaby's Villanova Wildcats or risk making the DTBB list
UNC or risk the mighty wrath of the taterguy...(whatever the hell that would be from that asshole!)
AFAIK none of the Lounge Lizards are Michigan State fans so maybe thats the safe bet.

:dilemma:

Oh btw, I AM open to bribes..;)

2. MSU - they're getting home cooking
plus the Big Ten has been dissed to death this year. MSU has to be the underdog of underdogs. I like underdogs.

5. UConn, I've got $5 riding on it.
I'll also get bragging rights since only one other person in our pool picked them to win!

6. Michigan State
Just for the fact that I TOLD YOU SO! Well, not you specifically, but I told a lot of people that they were good enough to make the Final Four, and most just said the stupid line that "The Big Ten is down now." WRONG! MSU all the way. Although for the money, I'd like to see UNC. I don't care for them, but I like money.

15. What was that about NOT cheering for MSU?
Sure, they aren't the Wolverines... But they're still from Michigan

Go SPARTANS! (For now)

22. The correct answer is UConn
Or, I will create a DTN list with you as the sole member!

I'm sure you're terrified.

34. Did you know that your coach, Brenda Friese, is an old ISU assistant
and I believe an ISU grad? So Maryland is my second choice. Of course the Friese's are legendary in Cedar Rapids sports.

30. FWIW, according to the REAL SPORTS FAN, you should be rooting
Edited on Mon Mar-30-09 09:34 AM by madinmaryland
for UNC. Since you are an ACC fan (ie, MD) that means you should be routing for the ACC team.

Problem solved.

32. Well, there is another corollary to this dilemma. Once again, per
the REAL SPORTS FAN, since you are from Ohio, and Ohio's biggest school is in the Big Ten, you could consider rooting for Michigan State.
