ESPN leaks Women's Bracket: UM 8 seed

The worldwide leader apparently just put the women's bracket on TV a few hours ahead of schedule:

This was the seed we expected, but now we know we'll be playing in Louisville against Kansas State and then (if we advance), Louisville.

While I know nothing about K State or Louisville (or almost any women's team not named UCONN or ND), it would certainly help the program/recruiting if they could get a couple wins in the tournament.  

(edit: well one win, anyway---due to a brain fart, I didn't pay attention to the fact that the almost certain 2nd round opponent would be #1 Louisville to be played ...at Louisville)

I just looked up at the TV to see that CMU is also a #8 seed and face #9 seed Staee.  So much disrespekt for spartie...

FIRE UP CHIPS! BEAT SPARTIE!

The people who are enraged at him posting the leaked bracket need professional help.  They aren't mad at ESPN for leaking it early, but for a guy who is a reporter reporting a story.

Back in 2009 --- I was on the Rivals College Football Board surfing around 20 minutes before Selection Sunday.

Somebody made a "Here's the Basketball Bracket!!!" post.  The post was literally taken down 2 minutes later.  The mod was in no mood for jokes I guess.  But, I made a mental note of about half the games.  It was 100% spot on correct!

That was weird.  But I swear that happened.  Someone had that bracket and decided to leak it to a obscure college football message board!
