I think YOU INCLUDE TOO MUCH VERBIAGE FROM ARTICLES YOU ARE RESPONDING
TOO!!!!!!!!!  (See how I used my editor and deleted the 100 or so lines
you couldn't seem to do without???)

Okay, I've calmed down; now for what I really think:
I too feel the original poster was too gracious to the "minor leagues".
In particular, I think that to include some of those other schools at
the expense of Maryland would be a travesty.  (And you don't know just
how much I "hate" Maryland and Wrongy Driesel (or whatever his name is
this season) :-)

One other thing REALLY bothers me about this posting, and other recent
postings--was it just my imagination, or didn't the NIT become a PRESEASON
tournament this year???  Didn't Duke (ugh, talk about schools you "hate")
win it this year??  Isn't it going to continue as a preseason tournament??
So, LET'S DROP THIS "THEY'LL MAKE THE NIT" GARBAGE!

(Please note that the use of the word "hate" in this message is intended
as "dislike in a normal manner befitting a conference rival", and is
not meant as the normal usage of the word.  I try to teach my kids not to
hate anything, except perhaps N.C.State :-) )

(And in case it's not obvious from the previous-- GGOOOOO HHHEEEEEEEEELLLS!)
