NCAA TOURNEY ROUND 1 PREVIEW -- (1) Kentucky v. (16) East Tennessee State

Since ETSU is going to lose by 35 points tonight, I'm going to give them some love. Back in the day my favorite college basketball player was from ETSU: Keith "Mister" Jennings. Dude was 5'7" and could BALL! He was a 2nd team All American his senior year and shot 59% from 3-point range! I have no idea why I was such a big Keith Jennings fan, but I loved him. Too bad he's not playing for ETSU tonight. Dude would totally shut down John Wall.

I hadn't seen Evan Turner play until the Big 10 Tournament, and my first impression: HOLY CRAP! That dude is a baller. He seems a little cocky for my liking, but if you're that good you have the right to be cocky. It's rare that one guy can take a team to the Final Four all by himself, but Turner seems like that kind of player.

I can't prove the girls in the last picture are UCSB cheerleaders, but are you really going to complain?
