Ncaa

Im heading to phuket for the first time in a couple weeks. With the explosion of satellite tv, I was curious where I could catch some of the NCAA tournament in Patong. (the US college basketball tournament).


Thanks

See Bill at the Summerbreeze. He'll put any game you want on his big screen. Go Bruins.

Summerbreeze gets a satelite feed. I'd be surprized if he didn't get the games but I don't know for sure. The superbowl wasn't on regular TV. I watched NBA games that weren't on the TV in my room.

UCLA should be a #1 seed in the west, from there anything can happen. I don't see any truly dominent teams.

NBA games are shown on star sports,especially the playoffs
i can say, for pretty sure, that, there is no NCAA

This years tournament s/b pretty good. It looks like theres going to be alot of sleeper unnamed teams doing some damage: Butler and Nevada for example.

but I thing the regulars like Ohio State, Florida, and Memphis will be the ones too watch out for down the stretch

Mid-Major is a misnomer. They blow. 13 to 14 of the sweet 16 will come from the Pac-10, Big East, ACC, Big ten, Big 12 and SEC.

Would you folks be interested in doing a Tournament Pick'em thing on Yahoo? I would be too tough to do it for money. I would be just for the bragging rights. If there is interest I'll set it up.

Send a message via Yahoo to Bsmoov
Count me in too. My picks usually suck but should be fun all the same.
