I'm calling it now. Davidson will defeat UCLA. And it also looks like Carolina will cruise to the Championship. Tough to get a read on Memphis.
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
NCAA March Madness
- Thread starter romangod
- Start date
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Wouldn't Davidson have to play UClA in the national championship game?
im picking ucla to win it all...their defense is just too much
the only reason florida was able to beat them was cus they were so much bigger and stronger...cant see any of the teams left dominating ucla like florida did

bring their own refs like psycho T does.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

MAN, you can hear the chant all the way in AZ from the east coast.
Rock-chalk-jayhawk!
I would love to see them win it all, but ol Roy is a beast.
But thats cool, the final four will ignite our recruit-like we need it-for years to come.

I'm assured of a minimum of fourth place and in the money in my Pick 8 pool. The top 5 spots pay out. There are 3 of us tied for 2nd place and it'll come down to total points in the final game. I have 149 as my total and the other 2 guys have 171 and 162. I hope the 2 teams that make it to the final play a low scoring game and it could land me in 2nd place with a $200 difference between 2nd and 4th. Cheers!

I picked the Giants earlier this year, and will pick my alma mater U of M to win the whole thing. These other teams in there are chumps. John Calipari has the Italian mafia on his side, and 3-6 mafia as a hometown band.

They're having March Madness at my alma mater but for completely different reasons. There is currently no head coach. Tony Bennett from Washington State just said no to us. And now players are threating to transfer - not to mention the incoming recruiting class that has completely backtracked now that the head coach who recruited them is gone.
What a mess.
What a mess.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

That one player, Carlos Roberts (?) was really impressive, he really wants to get picked high in the NBA draft. And I'm surprised Deon Thompson starts for UNC, he went to my school 2 years ago and everyone was saying he was just all size.
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
It's Chris Douglas Roberts & he's a borderline lottery pick.. Probably later first round pick.
Derrick Rose does not lose and will not lose. He is playing out of system and is about to lead his team to a championship in his freshmen season. Enjoy watching him, because you will not see a PG like this for a while. He is ridiculous.
Rose has lost under 10 games -- in his grade school, high school, and college career. Enough said.
Bet the grandchildren on Memphis. I would not be surprised to see Rose go for 30/10/10 in his college finale.

Yeah, Chicago does produce good ones. He Should go pro. Calipari will get more commitments to fill the gaps left by their exodus.stand said:

If he works on his defense, he has a chance to be the next Jason Kidd. If he gets really, really good at defense, he has a chance to be the next Gary Payton, only a better rebounder.stand said:
I watched him play in AAU tournaments when he was in high school. He was consistently the most athletic player on the floor, and there was top-50 talent around him at all times. He had a lot of the intangibles too, a good leader, a competitive drive, etc.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
