Nobody seems to mind       that they don't choose the "most deserving" or "best when you look at their       entire body of work" at-large        teams. After all, they don't play the tournament over the entire season - just       at the end.              Which is one of the reasons that same committee will look at the last 5 or 10       games as either a tiebreaker for seeding or to get in.              Mike              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
