Another 4 in March
There is another four that I will always wait in March and it is coming this weekend.

No, it is not April (the 4th month).

Rather it is the Final Four of the NCAA Basketball Tournament. This year the foursome will be Georgetown, Florida, Ohio State and UCLA. And this time around, there won't be any cinderella team or 'just-happy-to-be-here' team.

All four have legitimate chance of winning it all.

If you ask me, I'll pick Georgetown simpy because the coach and a player in this team is a TWO father-and-son combo from the team which won it all in the eighties. John Thompson and Patrick Ewing won it in 1984 (if my memory is right). And this year John Thompson III is coaching Patrick Ewing Jr to try to win it all again..

Why can't Malaysian athletes be that way too...? How about Soh Chin Aun's son teaming with Santokh Singh's to be the best defence Malaysia can have in years. And in between the posts, maybe Arumugam's long-armed or Lim Fung Kee's high-flying or Wong Kam Fook's cool son.

That will be the day...
