After releasing the pictures of the suspects yesterday Boston police have already come into altercation with the two suspects who have been confirmed as being brothers. Last night police got in a shoot out with the brothers, killing one of them. The other described as “suspect number 2” or the suspect with the “white baseball cap” got away. Currently in Boston a manhunt has ensued for suspect number two. All of Boston is in lockdown and citizens are told to stay locked in their houses. The suspect is considered armed and “extremely dangerous”.
An update from the last post. Now an estimated 140 people are injured and 3 dead including an 8 year old child. Boston authorities have confirmed that the fire/ explosion at the JFK library was not linked to the first two bombings. Nobody has been reported of being injured from the fire in the library. The Feature Sports family will keep you up to date via Twitter. Once again thoughts an prayers go out to all involved especially families morning a death from what should have been such a joyful day in Boston.
Reported earlier today during the Boston marathon 3 bombs went off. one at the JFK Library and two along the finish line. As reported by ABC there are 2 deaths and 23 injuries. Speculations conclude that these bombs were were located in trash cans and that they were small and most likely placed as a terrorist act.
This year’s 2013 NCAA tournament will be won by either the Louisville Cardinals or the Michigan Wolverines. The game will be on Monday, April 8th. Tipoff will be at 9:23 pm on CBS.
The final dance will be an offensive explosion along with an emotional rollercoaster. Michigan has arguably the best offense in the nation while Louisville is not far behind. Louisville has found a reason to compete in this tournament after Kevin Ware came down with that horrific injury in the Elite Eight. Win or lose Rick Pitino will be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, whether it be this year or years down the road. He definitely deserves it.
Now on the Michigan side we have the Player of the Year, Trey Burke; two offspring of basketball superstars, Glenn Robinson III and Tim Hardaway Jr.; arguably the most in-form player of the tournament, Mitch McGary; and a Canadian sharpshooter, Nik Stauskas. How could this team lose? Well their defence is lacking height and they are fairly young. However, their defence has been phenomenal allowing 61.8 points per game this tournament and the experience of their seniors and Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. has been enough to push through one of the bumpiest roads to the Championship this year.
My prediction is Michigan coming out with a close victory, 76-72. Michigan is in-form and has already been battle tested en route to this Final. Louisville is coming off a narrow victory over an underrated Wichita State and is missing a key player in Kevin Ware. Michigan is healthy, young, and lethal. A huge question a lot of Michigan fans are asking is will Trey Burke return next year? I believe that if Michigan wins a National Championship then he is definitely leaving. If not then it is really up for grabs.
Please comment below who you think will win the National Championship.

Rutgers University is a pretty prestigious university in the sports world. Basketball however, is not their strong point. They are a mediocre team playing in a beefed up Big East Conference. They may get into the NIT tourney every once and a while but that’s about it.
Recently Rutgers’s Men’s Basketball Head Coach, Mike Rice, has been under attack for abusing his players at practice. Rice has reportedly thrown balls at players’ heads, chests, and feet. Along with physical abuse Rice has been reported as verbally abusing players by calling them homosexual slurs and using inappropriate language.
Mike Rice Jr., son of Trailblazer’s announcer, Mike Rice, coached at Robert Morris University and in 2009 lead them to their first NCAA tournament since 1992. Rice was hired by Rutgers in 2010 and coached there for three seasons until being suspended in December 2012 and later fired April 2, 2013.
Now that you guys are up to date I have to ask a few questions. How could these 6-6, 215 pound guys put up with this abusive behaviour? How is the NCAA going to fix this problem? Many of the players on Rutgers gained Basketball Scholarships to go to college there. While you could say the players could just quit the team to avoid the abuse that is only partially true because if they quit the team then they lose their scholarship and may have to drop out or transfer colleges. When you break it down these kids were being forced to take this abuse in order to go to college. The NCAA can’t really punish the basketball program because then they would be punishing the players who just suffered the abuse.
I hope the players can overcome the Mike Rice incident and can move on and keep their careers alive.
Here’s a link to some of the video of the abuse:
