Congrats Florida Gators

I can't stand the Florida Gators. I mean, I REALLY can't stand the Florida Gators. All of that hatred can probably channeled for my great detest of Joakim Noah, the nappy-haired big man for Florida who comes up with a new gesticulation for everything he does on the court, no matter how minor. I feel kind of bad for him. As the son of a French tennis player and Swedish model, he has probably had to fight his whole life for respect on and off the court. Well, he has two championships now, so people will have to give him respect. He can start by cutting some of his hair and working on his jump shot. As for respect off the court, he's sure to make millions in the NBA. In other words, time to leave us, the fans, out of it!!

Now that I have that off my chest, I really do think that Florida deserves special mention. It is not only difficult to repeat as NCAA Tournament champions, but with their football team's win in the 2007 BCS National Championship game means that they hold the most sought-after trophies in the two premier NCAA sports. Their legacy will go down as one of the greatest teams ever, especially since their talented core decided to stay in school another year, even with the NBA calling every step of the way. I think it was the best college basketball season in a long time, although the championship game did not get the blood flowing unless your favorite NBA team has a chance at the first pick in the lottery. Greg Oden finally showed that he has franchise center potential. It would have been nice to see what he could have done with a fully healed hand, but I think he'll be an All Star at the next level.

Finally, I would like to mention that I won every NCAA pool that I was in. Of course, I only entered one, but that doesn't make the victory any less sweet. And now I have baseball to hold me off until football starts again in the fall.
