Daily News sportswriter Rick McGowan, who has never been a big fan of the TV timeout, is having trouble posting but wanted to sure you all knew this take:
"Congrats to Xavier for advancing. But these marathon timeouts are annoying. With the X-Men leading Georgia 61-56 with 3:13 remaining, the three timeouts the rest of the way totaled more than six minutes. I could switch to the soaps and get more action - 4 affairs, 3 divorces, 2 hair-pulls - than I got during crunch time in this game. And it will only get worse once March Madness gets into prime time."
And who would have pegged Rick as a "All My Children" kind of guy?

You really don't need a bench during tourney time mainly due to this reason... anyone else have the CBS b-ball theme going through their head?
Rick, I'd be happy to share Anonymous with you, since my login isn't working, either!
We'd have to work out a system of identification, though. Or do you think readers will be able to tell the angry white man from the angry Buffalo Bills-Syracuse female fan?
Yes, and it doesn't leave until "One Shining Moment" starts playing, and that is lodged until the Fox football theme starts in August.
Paging SheilaM ... hey, I might have figured it out myself! Know anyone who needs a tech assistant?
Well done, Sheila, but now I can understand why tech guys are such high-strung people.
