Final(ly) Four!

I'll have my 2008 Royals predictions up around noon today, but first my thoughts on this weekend:

- How relieved did Bill Self look when that shot at the buzzer missed? i think he (and many Jayhawk fans) almost expected it to go in. Now Self has his Final Four, but is anyone really satisfied? Nope.

- KU vs Carolina for a shot at the title....with all of the questions that Self and his players will have to face about Roy here's hoping at some point we get the "I don't give a ____ about Roy WIlliams right now" jab. I'd say Self is too classy and the players on too short of a rope, but it would be fantastically funny.

- Memphis looks scary good. I don't know that anyone in the country could have beat them their last two games.

- Yes, Kansas (and Self) almost choked that game away yesterday. There have been a lot of time that Mizzou and K-State fans have accused the Jayhawks of choking, yesterday would have been warranted.

- Stephen Curry has two years to stake his claim as the greatest college basketball player ever, and he has one hell of a start. Curry has now put up over 1600 points in his first two seasons, and a magical run to the Elite 8 over the WCC champs, the Big East champs and the Big 10 champs.

- Kansas of UNC? You'll have to wait until later in the week...

You jackass. You picked roy's boyz over the Hawks in your bracket. Even if you dont think inside they are going to win you still pick the Hawks. Lets just pray that Roy loses. There are some good article of charlotte observer's website today.
