NCAA Tourney - greatest sporting event in the world

Plus, in addition to basketball players, Gonzaga also produced Bing Crosby. Semi-literally, since his childhood home now houses the Gonzaga Alumni Association.

So, whatever respect Gonzaga gets for basketball, we are eternally in their debt for doing whatever they did that convinced Crosby to drop out and persue music instead of lawyering.

Well, the Hoosiers certainly felt Gonzaga was a little nothing team that they would squash. They've had to fight tooth and nail for every win, and while they've been doing well in the past few years, they are certainly not the big, boostered team like so many of the others.

Adam Morrison comes across as arrogant, but he has his share of challenges in life. He's a diabetic, and must constantly monitor his condition, often stopping to inject insulin during games, etc. He is a flaming lib in a conservative Catholic school, and has been known to quote Marx just to piss of the higher-ups. I think he's a complicated, serious guy and he has a lot of pressure on him right now that he is handling very well. He and his supposed rival, Reddick, are actually friends.

His dad gets his hair done in our shop, and he's very proud of his son. Nice guy, nice family.
