NC v Duke was outstanding. And I think Kansas v NC will be a tight, competitive, well played game. Would not want to bet on that game. Coin flip.

Funny that my wife, who NEVER watches basketball has always disliked the Duke coach because of the battles between Michigan(Wolverines)  and Duke in the Fab Five days of the 1990's(when I was following closely as a M fan and she watched with me).

When I watched his last game on Saturday, she still had that opinion about him.

Did anybody notice they had according to the news over 70,000 people in the streets in Lawrence Ks after the win and only 5 arrest. Now supposed that had happened in say Chicago ,New York or Califronia half the city would be burning and mass destruction as we have seen before.  I think it says a lot for the parents of those kids in Kansas they should be proud.

Why don't we just go and  check to see if you're right, the last time this happened in Chicago jmk!

The Chicago Cubs won the World Series and in 2016.

A whole lot of partying but few arrests, little damage after Cubs victory

Chicago have proven over and over it sure does not need a world championship to burn, rob, murder or rape. All they needed the last couple years was the false claim of white cops gunning down blacks by the thousand and leaders who looked the other way.

I totally get that there's a very high crime rate in the big cities.

It's just very  odd to randomly bring that up in a sports thread which has absolutely nothing to do with that.
