Seriously, if you don't have a nice big HDTV, you really should. Or find a friend with one. Seriously.

* I just got home, so I missed the first half of the game, but I'm guessing it looked a lot like the first couple of minutes of the half with Memphis showing just how athletic they are... These guys just get out and run. They're so quick.

* Bud Light Lime? Gross.

* It's like the Bruins can pass past the Tigers, the Tigers just run past the Bruins.

* If you have a big guy like Kevin Love, why do you have him shooting 3s. I don't care if he can, he shouldn't.

* Jeez -- Rose is so tough. I don't think I know the NBA well enough to know, but I'd be almost tempted to take Rose over Beasley. But, well, you know, when in doubt, go big. (Isn't that the theory that led the TrailBlazers to glory in the 80s and 90s?). Oh, wait.

* Did you see the socks on the UCLA cheerleaders? Nice.

* How difficult is it to say, hey, you, big guy. Stay closer to the basket.

* 3 seconds? Wow. 48-41 Memphis.

* Have I mentioned Kevin Love shouldn't be shooting 3s? Memphis has got 'em scared. UCLA is done.

* As soon as I say that, Collison gets moving and pulls the Bruins to within 5.

* I love the Spy Hunter commercial for Pontiac.

* Adidas must be loving this Final Four -- they have 3 of the four teams. UNC, well, they're with some other company because of one of their former players.

* Memphis was the one team I didn't get right in my Final 4, and, well, if I weren't near the bottom already, this will seal it. I had UCLA winning it all. And Texas beating Memphis. I think I was wrong.

* I don't like Miller Lite, but I gotta give them some credit in that commercial -- an airhockey table with an hdtv in it. Just brilliant. I want one.

* Four fouls for Collison. Yep. UCLA is done. Memphis is gonna win it all, aren't they?

* BALLGAME! Chris Douglas-Roberts dunking on Love is the highlight of the Final Four. When Sports Ullustrated has its special Memphis national champions DVD and sweatshirt special, they'll be showing that. And I'm guessing it's gonna be on YouTube in the next five minutes. Wow.

* Collison with a stupid foul with 2:53 left. He fouls out and Coach Cal's just gonna take the last couple of minutes to watch UNC and Kansas tape.

* Final is 78-63. Damn, Memphis was just much better. I picked Memphis before the season started, then picked UCLA to win it all and Memphis not to make the Final Four when it was time to fill out my bracket. Further proof I used to be smarter than I am now.

* That was a Bill Self pep talk? Seriously? I think he put his team to sleep. He put me to sleep.

* I say UNC by 9

* Hansbrough makes the ugliest shots, doesn't he?

* Wow. Just wow. 31-10. UNC looks lost and Kansas looks like they've got 6 guys. Amazing. (Ugh, Billy Packer and I just used the same line. I was typing, really. I'm not that proud of it.) 16-0 run?

* 40-12? Can UNC actually come back? I can't imagine it's possible. Marty -- America's Most Beloved... -- is probably not very happy right now. Not even I have the huevos to call him right now.

* If UNC can get it to within say 17 at half, they've got a chance. But they keep missing close shots. Not sure if they can do it.

* 17... Interesting it would end on that number. 44-27 at half.

* 14:42 left and it's only 12. What a great run by UNC.

* As close as 4. But now 7. Still, it's a completely different game. It's like KU is beat and has nothing left.

* Back to 12 at the last TV timeout. KU's back to playing like they were in the beginning. Heck of a gameplan by Bill Self.

* That was unexpected. WHat a great job by Kansas. Kansas-Memphis could be one heck of an entertaining game.
