Yesterday, the CBS page to watch the NCAA games online was accessible. Today, it is blocked as "Internet TV and Radio".
I didn't sign up for the VIP pass anyway, so the wait to get "in the room" was going to be ridiculous.

Wily is not the word I would use.
Forward thinking might be one (well, two) I would use.

Co-worker just got in on the "general admission" route. I joined that line about 1/2 hour ago and was originally 117,000 in line, I am now at 6,000. If nothing else it has been fun to watch the "lines". Btw, what would have a VIP pass cost, if at all?TheCalvinator24 wrote:Yesterday, the CBS page to watch the NCAA games online was accessible.

Pea, get out your "pom poms" for these teams:
UCLA
Vandy
Notre Dame
Miss. St.
AZ
Nova
W. Kent
Mt. St. Marys
We had 2nd pick (snake draft with 8 teams) in our annual $$ pool.
Interesting, I am watching the game, it is just the game, no announcers. And yes, I have the volume on, you can "hear" the crowd, whistles etc.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
