Very talented team, they sacrificed u19 to win this at home. Topić in my opinion should have played for u19 team, but it's nice to win something at least. Bošnjaković who is one year younger has playe

It does mean it’s time for me to start watching college basketball though. The “one shining moment” of the season :p

I donʻt trust Baylor (historical statistics thing).

 

I thought about Kentucky, but fell into the Duke trap.

 

Houstonʻs region is where I think the chaos is. Either Kent State or Drake will go on a double-digit seed run. Iowa State is my sleeper pick.

 

The top four seeds in the West all could make it out, but I chose Kansas.:d

 

(I also have some feeling a 14 seed will win. Either UCSB or Montana State is really sticking out.)

7 teams remain after 9 seed Florida Atlantic University eliminates Kansas State in the East Region final.

 

The Owls can thank Fairleigh Dickinson (who were given "no chance" in the tournament by certain user on the forum) for knocking off Purdue, the second ever 1 seed to lose to a 16.

 

There are also no 1 seeds in the Elite Eight for the first time in the 64-team era.

      [OFF TOPIC] Politics Thread

      Vast majority of Americans will disagree with you. That's all that counts. I dont see many differences in so called fascism between democrats and republicans. Both were bombing any country they picked, both were ruining systems they wanted to.  I prefer reds more because they are at least honest about it. Also, i dont like what this ultraliberalism brought to our whole Earth. Whoever opposes this level of insanity will have my vote.

      YEC Semi-Finals are set:   Aryna Sabalenka vs Cori Gauff Barbora Krejcikova vs Zheng Qinwen   Krecikova beating Gauff in two sets means Iga Świątek was eliminated with 2-1 record. Sabalenka clinched Year-End #1 after winning the first two matches and Świątek not winning all three RR matches before already.

      I remember a couple of years during the athletics worlds in Oregon one of the British athletes wasn’t able to enter the US due to visa issues. I feel like something similar will happen in LA, and I don’t envisage Trump succumbing to an appeal to let an unfortunate athlete in.

      thats true. If anyone observes the US election map then he can see that Harris dominated in NorthEast states and the Eastern Coast, exactly where the big economic centres are based (New York, New Jersey, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco etc).   Also what i observe regarding politics in western europe is that Socialdemocratic/centre-left parties have become extremely pro-market and even neo-liberal and some traditional right parties have become euroscepticist and protectionist, exactly the opposite as it was in 70s-80s

      Yeah, Trump is very pro-Olympics. I imagine he's pretty excited that he will get to open the games   Visas for some nations have always been tough and I do imagine some qualified individuals will fail to enter the United States (regardless who is President), but the IOC will likely sweep it under the rug.

      This is reaching the climax now. If Khelif's lawyers take this to court then they have to believe they can win the case. If the case gets quietly dropped before it goes to court you can assume they have no confidence in winning
