Dick Vitale, Digger Phelps, Jay Bilas Have Heated Argument Over St. Mary's {Fanhouse NCAA Tournament}
Mar 16th 2009 1:48PM Gonzaga (same conference as St. Mary's) played UConn in Washington, so mid-majors can play the big boys at home, though it doesn't happen that often. Davidson played UNC and Duke in Charlotte last year and Duke in Cameron this year. Bottom line: 22 or 23 wins against good competition is better than 25 or 26 wins against weak competition.
St. Mary's best win this year was against Providence and they just lost by 25 to a Gonzaga team that Arizona beat. The 'cats also beat Kansas. Unfortunately for St. Mary's they got squeezed by some surprise automatic qualifiers, but they don't have any real argument that they should have gotten in over any of the 34 at large teams that made it. Are they deserving? Maybe. But who are you gonna take out?
DirecTV delivers 31 new HD channels -- kind of {Engadget HD}
Aug 14th 2008 5:11PM I'm confused about your confusion. From their July 28 press release:
"Among the new HD channels that DIRECTV will launch next month are Showtime Extreme HD, Showtime Showcase HD, Planet Green HD, ABC Family HD, additional DIRECTV HD pay per view channels and an additional 23 Regional Sports Networks (RSNs) in HD 24 hours a day."
Seems to me they launched what they said they would launch
