Better Know A Region – West Preview

Jim Morrison once said “The west is the best” but he’s been dead a long time, and the fuck he knew about bracketology anyway?

Overview

Oregon not only gets a 1 seed, but also hosts the weakest bracket of them all. Who says child slave labor doesn’t pay ,, amirite bro? The committee also got all cheeky, setting up a possible 2nd rounder between old rivals Texas and TAMU. Yeah, like one or both won’t shit the bed in the opener.

There’s a Lot of Opportunities…

OH!!!!!!!!klahoma. Buddy Hield is a goddamned force of nature, and who exactly is gonna stop him from making the Final Four? The 7/10 is just fucking sad, with arguable bubble team Oregon State, and “why the fuck you think Shaka Smart got out of town when he did” VCU derping off. I mentioned the #3 and #6 sides above. Not impressed. And it’s a weak-assed #1.

What Have I, What Have I, What Have I Done To Deserve This?

Duke. They get shipped out west, where they NEVAR do well. To make matters worse, they got a nightmare 2nd round draw in BayBay, an athletic, relentless, physical team that will wear Dook out (without ACC refs to protect them). Yale isn’t going to save the ratfaced one, their best player got kicked out of school for being all rapey. Not that I follow the Ivy all that closely, but I’m gonna hazard a wild guess that they don’t run 10 deep in great athletes. Oregon is a weak 1, but they would match up well with Duke if they somehow lucked past BayBay. But they won’t, and I will have special love in my heart for the Bears (no matter their Baptist leanings) if/when they take out both hated Blues in the post-season of the same academic year.

Prediction/Confidence Level

Oklahoma (Super High) Oklahoma fucks my bracket over almost every year of late, and they will surely do it again this season. But I have a hard time seeing a plausible alternative other than BayBay, and Scott Drew’s teams just can’t stay disciplined for that long.

Honestly, I wouldn’t put money on Duke getting past UNC-W.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

I wouldn’t either.

Are UNC’s women allowed to play Duke?

Since we’re all high and mighty as NFL *fans*, I’d just like to point out that Oregon head coach, Dana Altman, actively recruited three players who gang raped a UO student and, while the investigation was ongoing last season, let them play. The school has since settled for $800k cash + other benefits to pay off the victim so Oregon can “close that chapter and move on to a much happier chapter in our history, as it’s being written”.

Fuck Dana Altman. Fuck Phil Knight. Fuck Larry Scott.

Depressing, but not surprising. Makes you wonder how much of this shit doesn’t get reported.

Phil Knight is evil.

Like supervillain evil.

This is what he builds for his toy collection:

Why is Will Arnett putting his kid in these tire ads?

It’s like he’s got Amy Poehler’s Mini-Me in a carseat in the back.

You didn’t spell Yale with a 6. What gives?

SonOfSpam

Yale could use an international airport.

Baylor gets Yale and Duke back-to-back? That’s like going from the frying pan into the fire, except you get gang-raped by douches.

The ‘Tussin has definitely strengthened the quality of writing. Love the lede.

Jim Morrison is NOT dead. He and Elvis own a Circle K convenience store in Wichita.
