And BUFFALO sent UofA a reminder that their Men's Basketball program is just as irreverent as UofA itself.

Wow! U of A getting destroyed!

Wildcats get blown out, and the PAC12 is eliminated from the ncaa tourney with a wimpering 0-3 record.

Yeah, it's pretty irreverent to pay your players $100,000 in the NCAA.

I was mocking another poster.

Of course Arizona was Skip Bayless' pick

How do we feel about Virginia losing to UMBC???

First thing I thought was, UVa was the victim in probably the biggest upset in NCAA BB history ("yes, Virginia, there is a Chaminade")...and they may have just outdone themselves

If you're going to be the ultimate upset, go out with a thud.

St. Francis (PA) vs. UConn - Game Recap - March 17, 2018 - ESPN

Are you beginning to see why I have a burning hatred for UConn Lady Huskies basketball?

So what on earth do they call St Francis?...the...um...."Lady Red Flash"?

As he finishes a full season

I actually really dislike the NBA but I'll tune in and pretend to care if the Suns are actually good, which in my lifetime has been restricted to a few seasons in the early 1990's and a few seasons in the late 2000's.

Those were the days.

They need to get rid of Peyton, bring in a quality vet-leader and, most importantly, some more beef. The other night at the Pistons game, it was sad to see them so obviously out sized. They look like boys, playing men.

Bring back Charles and Oliver!

 

[MIGs Dog]

LOL

Why would anyone actually dig that? I want an entrance to be more like this to get the crowd pumped:

Today is opening day in baseball. Anything less than a birth in the NLCS will be a failure for the Dbacks this season. The pressure is on and the bar is set. Don't tread backwards!

Huh? NLCS? You do understand that the NL West was the toughest division in the NL, arguably the MLB last year right? JD Martinez will be tough to replace. He had 65 RBI's in 62 games with the Dbacks, over 1 RBI per game, that's an insane rate in baseball. Robbie Ray had a career year, will he continue what he did last year? What will Corbin contribute. Granted it's a contract year so hopefully that will propel him to do good things. The wild card? Shelby FREAKIN Miller. The same guy we traded away Swanson, and Inciarte for who hasn't done much since coming over.

I'm sorry, but I just don't see how this year will be a failure if they don't make it to the NLCS.

 

[SniperHF]

I think they'll be ~5 games under .500.

If Corbin or Walker step up then maybe as much as 15 games better and in the wildcard hunt.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

Good 1st win by the Dbacks.

 

[BigMac1212]

The humidor seems to be misfiring based on the scores.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

Not a bad start for the Dbacks going 2-1.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

Justice has been served!

Former Arizona track coach guilty of assault

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

I know it's very early in the season, but this series vs the Dodgers early on now is very critical for both a playoff spot and the division.

 

[TheLegend]

Nice comeback win at Chase in 15 innings.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

And Dbacks beat the Dodgers again!
