Posted via VolNation Mobile | I mentioned Final Fours before - you conveniently ignored that barometer.
Nobody outside Philly cares about Drexel-LaSalle.
Most everyone watches Duke-UNC. | |

You're welcome. You don't have to worry about me choosing to live among a bunch of tobacco worshipping mongoloids who elected Jesse Helms multiple times.
Have A Nice Day,

I also look forward to seeing Davidson being disembowled come tourney time, since the Tobacco Roadsters seem to have adopted them as the 13th ACC member. Posted via VolNation Mobile | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | Actually, I definitely will watch that game this year - when is it? I'll see if my friends in Philly have tickets. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | How many NCs have come out of the triangle in the past 25 years?
How many have come out of Philly? Maybe I'm assuming, incorrectly, that any of "you" care about national championships. | |

The privilege of seeing Florida State, with all of their NCAA Tournament appearances in the last decade, is certainly superior to seeing ancient rivals play in the best venue in all of college basketball.
