Well at least now they can over-promote Ville's appearance tomorrow night so more people can watch us put the exclamation point on another Women's Championship. Not terribly disappointed in the last BE Champion here.

The whole Fab Five was there.

Bad mojo.

Karma and Cosmic Justice demand the Big East sweep both titles. Couldn't happen any other way.

When did this board become such a bunch of crybabies? The officiating has been fine.

Beilein just flushed about 30 seconds of game time down 4 with under a minute left. I don't get why so many good coaches have such huge issues with clock management.

Beilein is a very good coach, not a great one. He had little March Madness experience coming into this season.

He went up against a great one tonight.

The second half was fine. The first half was a joke. Missing goaltends, blatant kicked balls, guys getting undercut, guys standing up with the ball and not getting called for walks, guys getting wrapped up by defenders and being called for travels, that second foul on Burke which was third-grade level officiating, Hardaway goes out of his way to give a defender a stiff arm on his way to the basket, etc.

You'll notice that some of those calls went in each direction. I went into the game leaning towards rooting for Ville, found myself rooting for Michigan in the middle, and ended up happy for Ville after going through the Ware injury. Without a bet. I just couldn't believe that a national championship crew couldn't see stuff that was obvious.

No bets - no rooting interest. I just couldn't believe that a national championship crew couldn't see stuff that was obvious.
