[Unchainme]

joined and sent.

[FORD]

What the hell.... I always totally suck at this shit, but I'm in.

[FORD]

And just in case anybody wanted to know what Barack's bracket looks like....

ESPN's 2010 NCAA Tournament Bracket Contest - President Obama's Bracket (http://games.espn.go.com/tcmen/en/entry?entryID=3288143)

[POJO_Risin]

alright...I'm in...

Should make this an announcement...to get more folks in...

[POJO_Risin]

Who are the dipshits that signed up, and didn't do their brackets?

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Flamma and Wrning... A canuck and a hick, whoda thunkit.... ;)

[DlocRoth]

Ahahaha!

Im in.

[Fairwrning]

What the fuck kinda shit...I thought games started today..Thursday..fuckin shenanigans man!!

[Unchainme]

HA!

called the murray state upset a mile away.

[Unchainme]

Already know one game will be wrong in the Sryacuse/Vermont game I picked, but fuck it.

Always like to get ballsy once in a while.

[FORD]

So far, Grasshopper's the only one batting 1000 (oops... probably shouldn't use a baseball metaphor in a hoops thread)

[Romeo Delight]

Who are the dipshits that signed up, and didn't do their brackets?

That is weak...sorry everyone.

I got caught up working on my basement all week

[High Life Man]

Well, the Big East is choking on a dick. Overrated all year, every year.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

I'm fuckin' toast already, had Georgetown going to the Champ. game....

[Unchainme]

Damn, should have went with Ohio, I normally go with the MAC schools in the tourney to pull off the upset, but they didn't look as good as Akron/Kent, and I thought Georgetown had a decent season

Also, thought I picked N. Iowa :pullshair:

Games that will likely kill me today are the two upsets I piicked in UCSB and Vermont.

[POJO_Risin]

What the fuck kinda shit...I thought games started today..Thursday..fuckin shenanigans man!!

You mean to tell me there's still someone in this fucking country that doesn't know March Madness starts...

on a Thursday!!!

Oh wait...it's wrning...

[POJO_Risin]

That is weak...sorry everyone.

I got caught up working on my basement all week

Horseshit. We all know that you spend all of your extra time planning for fantasy fucking football...

[POJO_Risin]

As for the tournament...well...fuck it...

There are always the upsets, and we always try to guess them, and mostly don't. Some fucks, like the 56 out of 4.5 million on ESPN, that get them all right.

They'll come out blazing about how smart they are...knowing there's be shitty refs and last second buzzer beaters...

then comes the second round...when they are all exposed.

I only did two brackets this year...and did about the same in both. I still have my final four though...so rock on...

[Unchainme]

I feel bad, but I cannot pull for TOSU in BBall..

And don't get me wrong, love TOSU football, Tressell is the man and he seems to build up the program in a good way, and just oozes class. Love the tradition, love watching them on saturdays no matter how good or bad.

But TOSU BBall...just doesn't seem the same way. I don't like matta nor the hype that always sorrounds him, just annoying as hell.

It's weird as hell, and I can't explain it, just don't really like thatteam at Ohio State.

You can give me shit about it, but it ain't going to change my mind on it.

[POJO_Risin]

Love Matta, and was glad they hired him at tOSU.

He's the perfect college coach, IMO...he can recruit, and he really knows the x's and o's of the game. He's won with big and small lineups, and won 20+ every season he's coached.

He's also seemingly a loyal Buckeye, turning down several "looks" over the past years, including some programs with more pedigree than tOSU. He took his name out of consideration for both Kentucky, and his self-proclaimed "dream job" at Indiana to stay with the Buckeyes.

He's turned the team into a perennial national title contender, runs a clean program (as clean as the rest, anyways), has the support of every player he's coached, and is one of the top paid in the country...

In my book, you can't go wrong with Thad Matta...

[POJO_Risin]

Temple is getting crushed...

so is Minnesota...

my bracket gets worse and worse...

[Unchainme]

YouTube - Cornell The Office Reference (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBUz4RnoWSM)

The nard dog is pleased with the upset of Temple.

as am I. I called the upset.

[POJO_Risin]

I watched Cornell play Syracuse well earlier this year...but got caught up in the Temple, trendy wave...

[Unchainme]

YouTube - Oakland Raiders vs. Pittsburgh Steelers 1970's playoffs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzrxAjPgI9A)

I got all excited when I heard Pittsburgh and Oakland were playing..

...and then I realized it was college basketball. lol

OT As all hell, but

Also, I want Al Davis to quit owning that team so we can see one of the traditional powers back in the NFL. And this is someone who doesn't like the Raidahs.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

wi. up by 7 at half over wofford:)

[PETE'S BROTHER]

[PETE'S BROTHER]

[PETE'S BROTHER]

[POJO_Risin]

Boy does the fucking Big East suck ass...

[POJO_Risin]

Shit, maybe Northern Iowa will bust 90% of the fucking brackets...and roll fucking Kansas...

[Unchainme]

Boy does the fucking Big East suck ass...

Knew they were top heavy. bulk over substance.

If not for some freak accident against Minnesota and Hummel being out, we'd be talking about how great the Big Ten is in BBall, and it really has beeen the past couple of years.

[FORD]

Dawgs 44
New Mexico 32

at halftime.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Old Dominion (from Norfolk) scaring the shit out of Baylor in the 2nd half....

I'm trying for the worst bracket in March Madness history...

[Unchainme]

I had Kansas winning the National Championship...


ooooh..boy.

[FORD]

Shit, maybe Northern Iowa will bust 90% of the fucking brackets...and roll fucking Kansas...

Yep, they sure as fuck did.

Northern Iowa 69
Kansas 67

How many people's brackets just went to shit? Including the President (he had Kansas as the champs too)

Maybe the Dawgs will take it after all?

right now they're up by 20 points.

[Unchainme]

Should have known better with this guy as your biggest alumni.

good to see an upset, but my bracket is toast.

[Unchainme]

congrats FORD.

[FORD]

DAWGS WIN !! On to the Sweet 16 :beers8:

UW 82
NM 64

[POJO_Risin]

Wow...good for Northern Iowa...No Shit...my Dad had them to the sweet 16...

Fuck a duck...

[FORD]

Well, I got exactly 2 games right today. Thank God my Dawgs were one of them, cause now I don't feel as bad about the rest of them. Let's hope Gonzaga delievers tomorrow.

[FORD]

Well, I guess an all Washington championship game ain't gonna happen this year. God damn, what happened to Gonzaga?? :(

[POJO_Risin]

Fuckin Cornell

[High Life Man]

cornell next. cold beers sunday at 1:50 !!

Beers? I was served a shit sandwich.

Ugly.

[High Life Man]

Boy does the fucking Big East suck ass...


Overrated. Every year. It's all the ESPN dick sucking.

[High Life Man]

Fuckin Cornell

I think they shot like 65%. Incredible.

My team should have just not shown up.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

I think they shot like 65%. Incredible.

yes, that was quite oooogly. go purdue?

[Unchainme]

yes, that was quite oooogly. go purdue?

Purdue's losing to Duke.

don't see them getting past duke without Hummel on the floor.

At least they made the sweet 16.

[High Life Man]

yes, that was quite oooogly. go purdue?

Ohio State

But how awesome would it be to see Northern Iowa make a run?

[TAKIN WHISKEY]

Butler beats the Orangemen.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

great games last night

[POJO_Risin]

Fucking Butler and fucking West Virginia.

Christ, CBS must be shitting a brick.

If Tennessee and Baylor win...

12 people will be watching the final four and final game...

and they'll all likely be related to each other...and fucking...

[Unchainme]

damn..
soo..Purdue beats in Michigan State and fucking West Virginia (blew them OUT) and both of them make the tourney..and purdue is left..standing at home..

FML.

[Matt White]

Sparty on!!!

[damngoodtimes]

well, pojo, CBS got what they wanted with Duke this afternoon.

for a while, I thought Duke was going to win by making only free throws in the second half.

[POJO_Risin]

Butler makes it, and is playing on their home turf...more or less...

...now...if we can just get rid of Puke...

[rocknrolldork]

WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! GO BUTLER BULLDOGS!!!!!!!

Indy was crazy last night and is crazier tonight!!!!!!!!!!!

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...congrats...incredible run...

Butler had a lot to prove...and has more than done it...

Now...to the title...

Duke up 11...nothing I'd like better than to watch Butler nail puke to the wall...

[PETE'S BROTHER]

Butler makes it, and is playing on their home turf...more or less...

...now...if we can just get rid of Puke...

no such luck:(

[Little Texan]

The coach for Butler looks the same age as his players!

I hope Butler beats the shit out of Douche Monday night, but I think two of their players got hurt against Michigan St. yesterday, so they aren't going to be at full strength.
