I echo the thoughts of UWMBBALL but want to suggest one more thing......everyone associated with this post should put down the crack pipe for a minute and think about what you are saying..... there are some things that just flat out made me laugh - such as the teams in the championship game are not deserving....the refs fixed the game......LeCrone wanted UWM to win, etc.....you all are the worst bunch of losers that I have ever seen. You lost in the semi's which is nothing to hang your heads about!

But, my favorite quote was by ttt "Butler aint getting into the dance with their bad RPI and back to back blowout losses on ESPN" I want to break this down for just a second....first of all, Butler has an RPI in the upper 30's (was in the mid 30's before they lost to UWM). How can anyone in their right mind consider this a bad RPI? On a side note, it is the highest in the HL (approximately 72 spots higher than UD). The second thing I was confused about is that I had no idea that it was worse to get blown out on ESPN than any other network....haha what the hell difference does that make? The other thing that is even more funny is that the RPI does not take into account scores......it doesn't matter what the score was, only who won or lost, so the fact that BU lost by 20 and 17 is no different than if it lost at the buzzer both times (or if they lost on CBS, ABC, ESPN, or ESPN 2).

Some of the posts on this board are very interesting and well thought out......this is definitely not one of them!
