  1. Updated playoff matchups as of 3/17: WSH vs. TOR MON vs. NYR CBJ vs. PIT OTT vs. BOS CHI vs. STL SJ vs. CAL MIN vs. NSH ANA vs. EDM
  2. Oh man, now he needs to start over
  3. Derwood entering something without any prior knowledge or expertise? I simply do not believe it First time for everything
  4. I wouldn't want to face that Wild team in the playoffs, though. That team is a PITA
  5. I was 11-5, but I don't know that I watched a single game beginning to end this year. Mostly guessing
  6. It's a football school first and always, but when Matta gave them some really good years, the fans got used to it, and now they're growing irritable
  7. He's also missed the tourney for two straight years and a third straight would bring out the pitchforks.
  8. Seriously. He's had the 2nd or 3rd most successful program in the Big Ten during his tenure (only MSU and maybe Wisconsin can compare) and a couple of down years and he's out? The big knock is that he's a great recruiter who sucks at developing players. So if he recruits a Conley or Oden or Russell, he's good. But if the recruits are less ready from the start, they never get better
  9. Thad Matta looks like he will survive another year, but the consensus is that another mediocre season next year and he's toast. Patience is worn thin in these parts
  10. The mic drop has potential
  11. I attended an opening day in the late 90's and sat upper deck behind home plate and just ate cold wind for three hours
  12. One of the times I've seen the Cubs play the Nats in DC, my brother and I were sitting right above the LF corner and just mercilessly made fun of Ryan Church all night. We were basically the only people in the section, so it wasn't subtle at all. We were having a blast...until our mom yelled at us to "leave that nice Church man alone." THANKS A LOT, MOM; NOW RYAN CHURCH HAS THE UPPER HAND. My one and only bleacher game at Wrigley was against the Marlins and while Brad Penny was shagging fly balls during batting practice he was taking horsefeathers from everyone. It was fun, though, because he would give it right back
  13. if you [expletive] stay away I could win the nsbb group this year When have I ever done well in any NSBB contest ever?
  14. Are we not doing a bracket group this year?
  15. I don't see how they pass both the Pens and the Caps. Given the Caps' playoff history, I guess the Jackets would rather take their chances against the Caps than the Pens. Well all three teams have played 68 games, and the Pens and CBJ are just one point behind Washington. I haven't looked to see how their schedules line up, but that #1 Metro team will probably play Toronto, while the 2/3 play each other.
  16. The Blue Jackets have set franchise records for wins and points, and still have 14 games to go. I'll be disappointed if they don't get out of the first round this year, but they would have to catch the Capitals to guarantee a much easier match up (they'd play the Penguins if the season ended today)
  17. You said "Syracuse somehow just missed" which I read to mean you were surprised that they barely missed Yes but just a page earlier he went out of his way to remove Syracuse from the bracket we created because he didn't think they were worthy I didn't read all that (clearly).
  18. Is Syracuse missing that big of a surprise? Their resume isn't great Do you even read, bro? You said "Syracuse somehow just missed" which I read to mean you were surprised that they barely missed
  19. Is Syracuse missing that big of a surprise? Their resume isn't great
  20. The South region is packed
  21. They're making Northwestern sweat (dick move, CBS)
  22. Bulls with 26 points in the first quarter against Boston. Oh, I mean first half. Why any of you follow this clown shoes team is beyond me
  23. Where do you find these people?
  24. Also an a-hole who yelled at teammates and everyone hated: Michael Jordan Yes, David Ross = Michael Jordan
  25. Theo has given us 26 playoff games already. Before 2015, I had seen the Cubs play 21 total. 26 playoff games. 9 in 2015, 17 in 2016. Yeah but he gave us zero playoff games for the first four years so it's hardly worth it #kyle #doomboner
