Celebrating March Madness: 10 College Basketball Fans We Love

As we told you earlier, we’re getting pumped for March Madness with the help of our buds over at Sorry For Partying. They’ve been educating us on the ins and outs of basketball so we don’t sound like complete morons come game time, and in return we’re giving them…well…we’re giving them one more excuse to talk about college ball. Whatever!

Today we’re celebrating you, the college basketball fan. To show our collective appreciation, S4P rounded up the top collegiate b-ball fans. Draw some inspiration from their overflowing spirit and bring it to your own viewing party.

Everyone knows why the NBA was locked-out earlier this season, because millionaire ballers wanted even more money, and billionaire owners weren’t giving it to them. But college basketball doesn’t have that problem. In college, you get the walk-on Seniors diving for loose balls, and no-name Freshmen stepping-up big in the clutch. It’s where upsets are celebrated with rushing the floor, and losing means a ton more. Read More »


Celebrating March Madness: Best Underage Dunkers

As we told you earlier, we’re getting pumped for March Madness with the help of our buds over at Sorry For Partying. They’ve been educating us on the ins and outs of basketball so we don’t sound like complete morons come game time, and in return we’re giving them…well…we’re giving them one more excuse to talk about college ball. Whatever!

Today, our favorite fellas at Sorry for Partying are giving you the knowledge to dazzle even your most basketball literate friends. Next time you want to impress, just tell them, “Sure, that was a sweet dunk, but it doesn’t even compare to Austin Rivers’ winning shot against Ty Zeller.” See, now do I have any idea what I just said? No. But it sure as heck sounds like I did! Fake it ’til you make it, ladies. Here’s more from S4P…

With the NCAA Tournament brackets finally here, it’s time to let the most unproductive week of the year begin! Whether you’re filling-out your bracket’s on S4P’s Pick’em Challenge, “studying” for midterms, or already enjoying the hard earned week off for Spring Break, you’ll no doubt be paying attention to the madness.

To further get you in the mood for all the upsets and last-second shots, we’re giving you some of college basketball’s best all week.  Read More »

This weekend when your best guys go outside to recreate all the killer jump shots and slam dunks they spent all day watching on ESPN, try something new and ask to get in on the action. Here’s what you need to know in order to not be the token bench warmer…

It’s the worst position to be in in the entire world. After some buddies call you to play hoops down at the park, your posse decides to mix with another group to run full court. Standing there in your oversized, throwback Robert Parrish jersey (which you bought at a thrift store as a joke), rocking a NBA logo’d headband and a makeshift shooting sleeve, you think you’ve got the gear to back up your game. Problem is, the team captains see it a little differently. Read More »

Should Student Athletes Share in the Profits?

Let’s talk about student athletes.

With March madness at its peak right now this topic probably doesn’t seem like all that much of a stretch to you, but you might be surprised by the direction this topic is going in…

Should student athletes be paid?

Jalen Rose, ESPN/ABC studio analyst, member of University of Michigan’s Fab Five, and  the writer of this piece seems to think so. And while my first response to that question was an undignified snort, I have to say that after reading his points, I might be reconsidering my stance.

My immediate reaction was absolutely not. Sports are an extracurricular activity that students choose to take part in. Just like the school paper or honors societies or student government. They do is because they enjoy it. Or if they don’t have a love of the game, they’re often very good at the game, and they do it because they get a scholarship for playing that game. Full tuition paid? A free education? That was their payment. What more could they possibly need?

But Rose offers some good points.  He argues that being a student athlete is a full time job. (CollegeCandy reader and student athlete, Chelsea, agrees.) Rigorous training schedules, practices, and games take up the majority of these students’ time, far more time than most other extracurricular activities take up.  And the free time they do have is often spent in class or studying for classes. They do have to maintain a respectable GPA, after all. Rose points out something we all know but never seem to truly grasp: student athletes don’t have much free time.  And as the sister of someone who played high school football for four years, I have to agree. If high school football left my brother without much time to do anything but eat, sleep, and breathe football, then I can’t even imagine the demands that come along with being on a college team.

March Madness: Sometimes Sixteen Isn’t So Sweet

This has been, by far, the craziest NCAA tournament I can ever remember. Every single game so far has increased my blood pressure, spiked my heart rate and probably shaved a few years off my life. If your bracket has survived the madness, props to you; I’m already down a two Final Four teams (I guess that’s what you get for ever having faith in a team from Pittsburgh or Notre Dame). Woof.

After a much needed break to get our heart rates back to normal, the next round of the tournament, the Sweet 16, kicks off this Thursday. Here’s a rundown of everything you need to know before you grab that bucket of wings/anti-anxiety medication and park yourself in front of the TV. Read More »


What You Need to Know About March Madness

March Madness has nothing to do with the preparations for spring break, daylong drinking holidays like Mardi Gras and St. Patrick’s Day, or studying for midterms. It is about the best three weeks of any sport — the NCAA Tournament. The best of college basketball. Even if you’ve never watched a single minute of any game all season, you can still enjoy the Big Dance. It may be the only thing your friends are talking about the next few weeks so it may be a good idea to learn some important terms.

Current Events Cheat Sheet: The Crisis in Japan

After the being struck by the biggest earthquake in recorded history, Japan attempts to clean up. The biggest hurdle right now? The Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. The plant was hit hard by the earthquake and has since experienced two explosions, leaving many people worried about a nuclear meltdown that could kill over 10,000 people. People are being evacuated from the power plants, as well as coastlines. And this is only one of the many problems Japan is facing. Not only are thousands stranded without power or water, but with the state of emergency many survivors have over-stocked on food, leaving thousands of others without anything and still waiting for relief.

Apple had a successful weekend with the launch of the new iPad. The iPad2 sold out within hours of being released to the public. Analysts are estimating 400,000 to 600,000 were sold over the past three days, many of which were bought by new users. The iPad 2 is said to be thinner, lighter and much more powerful than it’s predecessor. It also features a camera that is located on the front and back, which is designed to take pictures as well as video conference. Many experts are saying that the iPad2 will continue to fly off the shelves with the price and technology it offers. Once again, Apple products dominate the market. Read More »
