March Madness thread
If you've not yet turned in your sheet, you may want to revise your picks in the East regional:

Re: March Madness thread
Im not even going to bother. I watch zero college basketball this season unless it was the Illini. I couldnt even stand to watch them ever much.

Re: March Madness thread
I haven't filled out a sheet yet on my own. I helped my son fill out his for a school assignment about probability and statistics.
"What's the difference between North Carolina and North Carolina-Asheville?"
"About 50 points ..."

Re: March Madness thread
Bracket is in. I've learned that you have to go slightly against the crowd but not entirely in the opposite direction in order to win these for-entertainment-purposes-only NCAA pools. Straight chalk doesn't cash you a check, and trying to show how smart you are by picking St. Bonaventure as a 14 over Florida State as a 3 because you like the way the Bonnies looked in the A-10 final is suicidal. I went safe in the South with Kentucky, semi-safe in the Midwest with Kansas playing at home, and Mizzou in the West. My gamble is Vandy in the East. Kentucky over Kansas in the final.
For real honest-to-goodness upsets, I went with New Mexico State over Indiana, and South Florida over Temple. And I have N.C. State over San Diego State and Xavier over Notre Dame.

"Kansas playing at home"
Kiss my large, lily-white arse. St. Louis isn't home to that fictitious, bottom feeding, stupid-looking fucking chicken hawk. If I wasn't leaving for vacation with the family, I'd probably try to organize a riot and burn their fucking hotel to the ground as a reminder to what happened to Lawrence 150 years ago.
I hope Detroit kicks their ass all the way back to that shit-hole fucking state they came from and spares St. Louis the damage to its air quality.

Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, whatever. It's pretty much the same thing ...

Thanks for not lumping us in with Hoosiers.

Re: March Madness thread
Easily the best moment of the tournament so far is when the talking head on TBS said: "Up by as many as 17, Gonzaga takes a 40-22 lead at halftime ..."

Appropos of nothing, but Norfolk State has the ugliest collection of cheerleaders since The Longest Yard.

Fuck.
Just Fuck.
I'm really glad I'm going on vacation now. I need a distraction from the tournament.
I'm blaming Obama for this disaster.

Re: March Madness thread
I'm kind of disappointed Vanderbilt lost. It would have been interesting to hear Charles Barkley's explanation why a team from a landlocked state is known as the Commodores.

Except for Georgetown losing, this hasn't been a great day. Unless Purdue can hold on here.

Best moment of the tournament so far ...
Jim Nantz: "It's the season finale of Lizard Lick Towing Monday at 10 PM on truTV."
Steve Kerr: "Not quite like promoting the Masters, is it?"

Re: March Madness thread
So the Final Four consists of two Kentucky teams coached by possibly the two worst human beings on the planet, a team from the Suckeye State, and Rock, Chalk, Chickenhawk. Are the Bruins playing Monday night?

Nice. Think he got some feedback from management?

Yeah, it went something like: "Clark Kellogg is going to be sitting in your chair for the rest of the tournament."

Did you know the toothbrush was invented in KY?
If it was invented anywhere else it would have been called the teethbrush.

Heeey now!
There's an old joke about Kentucky involving Col. Sanders and Larry Flynt, but it's in bad taste, even by my gutteral standards.

It was an outstanding game. Those stupid fucking fictitious bird lovers were dominated from the opening tip, got just close enough to make them think they might find their way back into it only to have their hopes crushed in the end. I hope every piece of shit Beaker fan that traveled to St. Louis or to New Orleans had to mortgage their two room shack and the revenue from their 2012 and 2013 crops to watch their team lose. Enjoy the trip back home. It shouldn't be hard to find. Just look for the 300 mile wide strip of flat land and call any part of it home. It isn't like you can tell the difference between one parcel of land from another in that god-awful state. Quantrill should have done the country a favor and burned the whole state to the ground rather than stopping with Lawrence.
Suck on that Bill Self. And one last Fuck You to the Big 12-2-1+1-1+1.
Go SEC!!!!
