Cleveland Browns coach Eric Mangini is looking to bring Brett Favre in to work with the Browns QB's at camp. I'm not sure how effective he'll be working with Derek Anderson or Brady Quinn, but the confidence of the defensive backs will sure skyrocket if Favre is stepping back to demonstrate. How long until the story becomes that Favre "has the itch" again?...I was most pleased to find that when you type "booooo" in a BlackBerry, the spell checker suggests "Boston". No joke...had Villanova at +125 on the money line. Adios, Duke. Total beatdown. Also an easy winner was last night's "under" play in the Miami/Chicago game. Under's have been kind to this punter...Houston Astro Miguel Tejada got off with only probation for lying to Congress about his steroid use. Wonder if Roger Clemens is suddenly thinking his risk level went down? Guessing not, as your risk level tends to stay static when you are convinced you're right...Columbus Blue Jacket goalie Steve Mason has pulled 10 shutouts in his rookie season. Not bad for a guy who started in the minors and had a bout with mononucleosis. And to think I traded him in my keeper pool when I fell out of the race in anticipation of Montreal Canadien Carey Price being the better play going forward. All Price has done since is prove me wrong...speaking of the Habs, it is fun - even when it would never, ever happen - watching Habs fans squirm suggesting not only will RIM co-CEO Jim Balsillie buy the team, but that he'll move them to Kitchener...you hear the talk of going to 17 or 18 games in the NFL also includes making the Super Bowl permanentely on President's Day weekend - the third weekend in February? That also happens to coincide with Family Day in Ontario so rather than taking a holiday to nurse what is usually a crippling hangover, now it's a regular holiday. Roger Goodell is a saint in my eyes if this happens...as if the Toronto Blue Jays didn't have enough to worry about, now BJ Ryan's velocity is falling faster than John McDonald's batting average after a 1 for 3 opening day...back with your PTP later.

Next time Duke might as well keel over in the first or second round with a narrow loss in OT and blame the ref or something to avoid the humiliation of being completely pounded in the sweet sixteen.
And Pitt was supposed to lose, at least in my bracket
Got Villenova, Missouri and 'Cuse in the final 4 so still going good for me, though WVU, Minnesota and WF have messed me up on the way.
Steve Mason is having a great season, and looks like Columbus should make the play-off for the first time now. They've been terrific this season, not only beating the lower opposition, but playing good and getting wins against the elite teams in the league as well.
Dookies, blame the refs? They'd be laughed off the continental shelf. The only reason that wasn't a 40-point margin instead of only 20 or so was because the officials called charges every time a dookies grunted and fell over to the floor, regardless of whether or not they had legal guarding position.
What boggles the mind is how they ever got a #2 seed in the first place...
Or how they every year seem to get a #1 or #2 seed...
Mizz vs Memphis was awesome to watch, especially after a slow paced Pitt vs Xavier game.
