[Napkin Pirates Inc.] Napkin Pirates Elite Eight Coverage

Napkin Pirates, it is Saturday, we are still rejoicing in yesterday’s victory, and yet are anxious for the outcome of tomorrow. I must first say that as a napkin pirate that is hard to impress, I was impressed last night by the Jayhawks. It has been a long time since I have seen a game start with that intensity and that many dunks in the first few minutes. Napkin pirates, glasses up to the Jayhawks.

The official Napkin Pirates Bracket took a hit tonight as Xavier fell to UCLA. I had so much hope in the Xavier team and tonight they completely fell apart. Us pirates sat around and watched the UC LA defense totally pick apart the Xavier offense. So far our bracket is not doing as good as we pirates have lost Tennessee and now Xavier for our Final Four picks.

I know I have do this but I do not want to . North Carolina won tonight. I had picked Tennessee over Louisville but lately I had faith in the later. The napkin pirates and I wanted nothing more than to see N.C. go down. We have waited a long time to see a Pargett-Hansborough match-up and Hansborough won. This means that if KU wins tomorrow, we will play N.C. next weekend. This might be hard for N.C. as they will have to stop playing Sweet 16 games in their own state. I guess we will call it an away game for them . Regradless of tonights winners, the tournament has been wonderful to watch. Napkin Pirates, keep celebrating the holiday season we now as March Madness.
