Compositions, and basketball

Ah!! My composition is done!! I spent like 4 hours today putting it into my teachers computer and it is all complete, mailed in and everything...now just the waiting, competitions are full of waiting...

NCAA action officially begins tomorrow. This is going to be an interesting year, with a couple unlikely #1 seeds, like Villinova and Memphis, and bunch of hopefuls in the lineup. I think out of all the tournaments, the NCAA is my favorite, because absolutely anything can happen. No name teams can weasel there way into the final four, and very unlikely matchups clash in a normally thrilling climax. There's just nothing like the NCAA when it comes to tournaments. In football, the same old teams end up in the bowl championship series and who gets into the bowl games are easy to predict too, like, it is tons more difficult for no name teams to do anything, but in basketball, I mean, like, Air Force is in the tourney, and when do you ever see them do anything in football. I know it's impossible to face off 64 teams in football, but that's the beauty of the NCAA. Well, that's my thoughts on march madness. Any other thoughts?? Well I'll wrap up this post with that...have a great night!!

More thoughts - yeah, you should join the RP Youth NCAA pool on ESPN.com! See my blog for details.

The NCAA tournament is the best sporting event known to man. When I was homeschooled, we didn't get a spring break, rather we took off the Thursday and Friday of the first round of the tourney to watch the games!

Hey, good job on the composition, sorry there's so much waiting...that must be annoying.

And concerning the march 14th post....I saw that a while back at a friends house. We were all crowded around the computer, thinking it was incredibly strange. But I do agree that God does work in mysterious ways and anything is possible through him!

Nathan--- "NCAA tournament is the best sport known to man"? I's sorry. No sport has as much intensity as NASCAR. 43 drivers, 26 races to get in the chase for the cup, the last 10 races for the championship, the roar of the engines, the scweel of the tires it doesn't get any better than that. Basketball doesn't do much for me, I haven't even watched a game since 1999. Just don't care for it. Not enough action for me. Not to mention that NASCAR is the most Christian sport out there, it's also the most patriotic 'cause NASCAR is made in America. (hehe)

hmm, nascar, well it can be exciting i guess, but, i don't get a lot of thrill watching cars going around the same oval a couple hundred times, and, really, in basketball, there a LOT more lead changes. I mean, i think the NCAA has the most intrigue, the most excitement, and the most upsets. Nascar it's the same drivers and the same winners and everything...i think that NCAA is much more interesting but oh well, that's is just my opinion...really...

well isaac, we're goin ta hafta turn u around too huh...hehe, well football is ok, but NCAA is better...

Football and basketball both are conducted under the National Collegiate Athletic Association.

Football doesn't do anything for me. I basically don't like any sport unless I'm playing it. I will not watch baseball, football, basketball, soccar, tennis and etc unless I'm the one playing. But since I know all the drivers I love watching NASCAR. And they are not always the same. The get rookies every year. Especially in the Busch devision, a guy/gal can be here one day and gone the next. It can be boring if all you're doing is watching them turn left around the track but when you know what the driver, spotter, and crew cheif are sayin' and how cars are handling it's all exciting. Formula 1 racing stinks. At least in my book.

hey, formula one, has been around for a very looooong time, and is very interesting...like, there r a lot of lead changes, with a lot more exciting things, and stuff, and well, i c that u know everyone and get all the inside stuff about the drivers, but for the normal person just watching, well, i think it can get a little...uh...long
