I'd be happy with that, and I'm sure many others in this thread would be too. Perhaps you could pick another spot to troll, have you talked to Manny about his decision to go pro like you wanted to last spring?

Manny plays for a Pro team? I thought he was on the Cavs.

.70*.50*.40*.30*.20*.15 < 1%, add in the fact we're not in yet and it's definitely less than 1%.

Have you conjured up the cajones to congratulate him? Last I checked that's what you wanted to do.

Penn St/Bama/Illinois/Baylor/Va Tech all bubble teams that lost tonight.

VaTech lost to another bubble team, though. Nebraska beating ranked Missouri hurts, too.

yep

from mgoblog ldo:

Today's Games

Wednesday is a HUGE night for college basketball, so there are going to be tons of games to watch (and the next couple days might not be frontpage-worthy). You're rooting against bubble-ish teams, though things get more complicated when a past Michigan opponent is involved.

Iowa @ Michigan State (6:30, BTN). Pull for the Spartans to not embarrass themselves against Iowa (again). They're a fringe RPI top-50 team, and Michigan has the chance to get a season sweep on Saturday.

North Carolina @ Florida State (7:00, ESPN). You want North Carolina to smear Florida State's innards all over the gym. The 'Noles are a solid bubble team that can be knocked down.

Maryland @ Miami YTM (7:00, ESPNU). Maryland is on the wrong side of the bubble, and this game could end their tournament dreams.

Memphis @ East Carolina (7:00). Pull for the Pirates to get the upset. Memphis is a bubble team, whereas ECU has no chance to make the field without winning the league.

SMU @ Central Florida (7:00). Central Florida is vaguely on the bubble, and this loss would knock them off for good.

St. Louis @ Dayton (7:00). The Flyers are near the bubble, and this loss would knock them out for good.

UAB v. Southern Miss (7:00). Both are bubble teams, but I say root against UAB, since they're the ones currently considered "in." Trading spots would slightly weaken Conference USA on the whole.

Richmond @ St. Joseph's (7:00). Root with all your might against Richmond. They're a bubble team currently in the tournament, but losing to a terrible St. Joe's would change that in a hurry.

Colorado @ Iowa State (7:30, ESPN3). Iowa State can undo what Texas did, and get the Buffaloes off the bubble.

LSU @ Georgia (8:00, ESPN3). More SEC carnage plz.

Cincinnati @ Marquette (8:00, ESPN3). Get these Golden Eagles off my bubble. If the Big East gets 11 freakin' teams into the tournament, I will do something drastic like be mildly upset.

Minnesota @ Northwestern (8:30, BTN). Michigan has a series split with each of these teams, but since Minnesota is on the bubble, I think you want them to lose and seal the deal. The way they've been playing lately, it's likely to happen. I guess you could theoretically want them to claw back into the RPI top-50 as well. I'm mostly indifferent on this one.

Clemson @ Duke (9:00, ESPN). Though they're a fellow bubble team, I think you want Clemson to win this game. They're behind Michigan in the pecking order, and the Wolverines have a big road win over them. More Michigan opponents in the tourney == better Michigan resume.

Utah @ Colorado State (9:00). A double whammy: Utah can knock Colorado State off the bubble for once and for all, and improve Michigan's strength of schedule.

Marshall v. UTEP (9:05). Both are bubble teams, but UTEP is a past Michigan opponent.

Need to write all of that down? Some games are obviously more important than others. In the Clemson/Duke game, for instance, you could make an argument that you want either team to win (much like last night's PSU/OSU contest), so you can be happy no matter who emerges victorious.

As far as likelihood that all of these results come through the way we want? Well, Kenpom's odds have it at slightly better than 3.6x10-8. That includes our serious underdogs as well (even Clemson, who we're not even sure if we want to win), but in all the Kenpom favorite is "our team" in seven of the fifteen games.

It's insanely interesting in spots like Clemson V Duke, where you have a team you're fighting with to get in but a win makes your resume look so much better.

Weird article about Alex Legion:

http://www.detnews.com/article/20110...n-hits-new-low

Quote:
Attempts by The Detroit News to reach Legion, 22, were unsuccessful, but he responded on his Twitter page to an inquiry about his future plans with the following: "Idk (I don't know) I've been doing a lot of singing lately."
Quote:
"A lot of people have said I've made a lot of bad decisions for my son," she said. "The only reason I think people say that is because when you have a young man like Alex, people want to put their hands on the trophy."

Williams declined to explain why her son was dismissed from Florida International, but claims his plans involve a movie about his life, completion of a bachelor's degree in journalism, and pursuit of an NBA career.

The News couldn't find any indication such a movie will be produced. Williams refused to provide details.
Quote:
But despite the upside, Weber expressed jokingly at a booster event some concern about Legion's mental approach.

"The players have nicknamed him 'Kobe,'" Weber said in the Peoria Journal Star. "He has a ways to go, but I understand the comparison.

"He can score, but he doesn't guard anybody and we just had to teach him a new word: pass. When he gets his first assist, everybody should give him a standing ovation because that will be his first one."

At this point, no credible mock NBA drafts consider Legion a surefire selection.
