  1. Throw up would be my pick. God Bless America might be my least favorite song in the world.
  2. First named blue jerseys since 2004. Glorious.
  3. WVU vs Xavier was pretty good. That and Kansas vs Davidson are the only two really end-to-end exciting games since the 1st week. (UNC/Louisville was well-played but the Heels were in control for most of it.)
  4. I voted Kansas. I'd rather them win, and I keep thinking the FT shooting has to catch up to Memphis sooner or later.
  5. "Robbed" is a bit much. Beasley is clearly the better player, but I think the thing that most set TH over Beasley is that he's a junior whereas MB is a freshman. Now you want to talk about "robbed" see NL MVP 2007. Giving someone an award because they are a junior as opposed to a freshman is an absolutely hideous impersonation of a joke. Beasley is a better player than Hansbrough and put up better numbers on a crappier team, and his reward for carrying a team that would've won 12 games without him to the NCAA tournament is to get passed up by a dude who tonight was the ringleader of his team's biggest weakness - interior defense. How many alley-oops did Kansas throw down tonight, and where was the national player of the year to do anything about them?
  6. I have never correctly predicted an NCAA champion (doing brackets since 2001) and that streak will continue this year.
  7. But Hansbrough's PSCYHO-T!!! He wouldn't let that happen!!!! He's so gritty!!!!
  8. Geez, both teams are red hot right now.
  9. I hate wanting that team to win for money. Watching them spend an entire possession trying to draw a charge a minute ago was utterly nauseating. And I don't think I've ever hated a college player like I hate Hansbrough. He's insufferable. Greg Paulus?? Duke>>>>>>>>UNC. And that's not a compliment to Duke - I don't like them, but I have a white-hot hatred of the Heels.
  10. I hate wanting that team to win for money. Watching them spend an entire possession trying to draw a charge a minute ago was utterly nauseating. And I don't think I've ever hated a college player like I hate Hansbrough. He's insufferable.
  11. Billy spends half his time talking about games he and Jim did together. Just for comparison's sake, I was watching the 1993 Michigan/UNC final on ESPN Classic a couple weeks ago and Billy was also spending half his time about games he had done previously.
  12. Would I get shot if I walked into Subway and just made the "five dollar footlong" hand motions?
  13. How the hell are we only two games out of first?
  14. SHAM CLOSER!!!! <3 Fukudome. Big, big win.
  15. Kosuke Fukudome is the best player in baseball.
  16. .050 is a nickel. I'd be thrilled if he was hitting fifty cents.
  17. MLBtv changed their mind or something. As of last night all the squares for the early games were 'blackout' squares. Good lineup today. Let's hope Riot 8th is an idea that lasts beyond Reed's starts.
  18. Well, hell. This is my first Pat and Ron game this year. I'd forgotten about the whole national MLB.TV blackout shtick. Oh, well.
  19. How the hell are we only two games out of first?
  20. FWIW the announcers later said that Resop was originally drafted as an outfielder, so that probably made Cox's decision easier. I was personally hoping that Bobby would keep having to switch them from pitcher to LF on matchups. Agreed though, great thinking on Bobby's part.
  21. I'd go with: Tyler goes to a bar of all hot chicks with four incredible wingmen, takes home upper-echelon girl. Michael goes to a bar of all hot chicks with one good wingman, but three idiots who make it their mission to deny him any chance of scoring. Michael takes home hotter chick than Tyler anyway.
  22. I would rather the entire division be contracted than the Cubs not win it.
  23. This should really be in Rants because this was galactically stupid. To me it goes 1. Cardinals 2. Whoever the Cubs are battling with for the division title/playoff spot (if applicable) 3. White Sox Completely ridiculous to say Milwaukee is our greatest rival after 165 games of actual competition for a division title.
