Flacco Eight Preview/Game Thread (Sunday Edition)

Yes, I’m recycling the picture. I don’t care enough about today’s games to try very hard. Take it out of my paycheck.

10MW Syracuse vs. 1MW Virginia (6:09, TBS)

Fun fact – when these two teams played in the regular season, I am 95% sure that the game didn’t even make it to TV at all in North Cakalaky (regional split on the ACCN). Usually, WRAL shows the secondary game on its SD channel, but they didn’t even bother for this unwatchable turd. And this is now your regional final. Again…unflavored ice milk FOAR TEH PEOPLES.

6E Notre Dame vs. 1E U*NC (8:49, TBS)

At one point, the cheaters had a surprisingly tough road to the Final Four. Then, both Kentucky and West By God Virginia got upset. FUCK EVERYTHING.

Microsoft has been reduced to copying Apple”s products.

Sad.

And microsoft aren’t the only ones who can introduce a technology before its time and mostly cock it up.

They look completely lost.

OBSCURE BASKETINGBALLING HUMOR YOU MUST KILL AT CHILDRENS PARTIES

This game is one of runs. Kinda like after you eat Chipotle.

Covalent Blonde

That’s good hustle

scotchnaut

Quite a drop from Roberson to Coleman.

litre_cola

Kid needed to hold that ball for longer than a second. You are up 6 with 2 minutes left for fuck sakes.

scotchnaut

He wanted to put the game away but that was a bad decision.

Sill Bimmons

Letang’d!

Covalent Blonde

Oh Sharks, why can’t you give me this feeling just once the last half of the regular season?

scotchnaut

MALACHI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

theeWeeBabySeamus

LET’S FUCKING GO!!!! (he said a bad word)

The whole UVA bench is stunned.

Holy shit how did that happen? I turned it off 20 minutes ago.

Covalent Blonde

This tastes so good!

theeWeeBabySeamus

Well look at ‘Cuse being all not shitty and stuff. UVa sphinters are a-tightenin’.

scotchnaut

Well, looky, looky at you you Cuse!

/I said their press was a thing.

jjfozz

I am considering adding more drugs to my daily diet. Good drugs.

Sill Bimmons

Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

jjfozz

More pot, some lsd. Can’t afford heroin

Sill Bimmons

How much do I owe you for this issue?

...

And if you did, you’d still be more coherent discussing policy than Donald Trump is.

rockingdog

good drugs are good.

Sill Bimmons

That Alison Brie Apple TV ad is unsettling.

laserguru

Oh man, next week’s Sunday Gravy was delicious.

I am from the future.

I may be heading for a food coma though.

I should probably start doing shots while I’m still upright.

jjfozz

Chicks with small tits = great ass.

NO ONE DENIES THIS!

litre_cola

I am an ass man, but I do enjoy an ample rack. A while back on the site that shall not be named someone was posting curvy women and that was heaven.

...

“Ample” is one of my favorite words when it comes to describing a woman’s defining physical attributes.

Sill Bimmons

They just fucking SUCK in the first ten minutes.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Happy Easter Folks!
How’s it hanging?

...

Actually, it appears all of those ladies are well supported.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Indeed. Probably a good thing too, eh?

Gratliff

Alright, let’s see how many people get injured in the Pens-Rags game.

Sill Bimmons

I was watching last night’s slaughter with my Flyers fan brother-in-law.

Needless to say, it was entertaining.

Gratliff

No hearings for either side. Apparently, if each team murders the other’s star player, it comes out a wash.

Sill Bimmons

That’s insane.

Good thing the NHL remains fully committed to enforcing tight player discipline along the boards.

...

I like sports factoids, so I really enjoy this one: It’s likely this will be the first year since 1970 in which no Canadian team makes the NHL playoffs.

We hear it every fucking day in our media. Then some asshat will pipe up and say well a lot of the players are canadian. Fuck that guy with a rusty screwdriver.

litre_cola

Sadly Sill, I am was born and raised in dumpsville AKA Winnipeg, I just happen to live down the street from the Saddledome. Therefore I am an Ice Bombers fan as my hometown has nothing else…

...

I went to grad school with a Canadian guy and whenever Winnipeg was mentioned he’d refer to it as an “old woman.” I never thought to ask him why.

litre_cola

Winters are Baltic, and summers are hot with a load of mosquitoes. I have no idea where the old woman reference comes from.

Sill Bimmons

hey guys

Beerguyrob

‘Sup?

herodotus450

Do replies still work?

Sill Bimmons

As far as I know.

herodotus450

Huh, I couldn’t see any of the others until I posted that one. Must’ve been some log in/page refresh issue for me.

Covalent Blonde

Am I the only one who always hears “LGBT data” on TMobile commercials?

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

My LGBT data consists of how many times I look at playgirl magazine in a day!

Happy Easter! Here’s Stern and Billy making fun of Raymond Burr.

Calgary Hitmen and Red Deer Rebels are tied at 2

Speak American for God’s Sake!

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Team co-founded by pedophile coach Graham James is tied with post playoff tournament hosts.

Better?

litre_cola

Even after all these years when I see Christian Laettner speak I still want to throat punch him.

Can hear the womens curling from upstairs, it is like 5 female tennis matches all at once.

Beerguyrob

The “Full schmurler “?

Kungjitsu

I’m so drunk my ankles are numb.

Covalent Blonde

Stop wading in a kiddie pool of booze then

Kungjitsu

I’m like Kendrick Lamar.

jjfozz

Also fuck UVA for piling in the Hopkins crease after the game winning goal. Yeah it’s lacrosse and no one carres but duck them for that shit

Sill Bimmons

I still have the UVA Lacrosse hat I traded my own hat for after a Fall Ball game my freshman year.

I never wear it, but I still have it.

Fuck UVA.

jjfozz

Easter egg hunt – just did a shot of tequila with my bro in law

Beerguyrob

Syracuse really made a mistake bringing in Donovan McNabb to coach their three-point shooting. They’re getting nothing but air, and the opponents keep catching the ball.

...

On the flip side, the Orange’s bounce passing has never been better.

scotchnaut

Tyler Lydon got no sole.

Bloody Lethal

Kill them!

Beerguyrob

I’m kinda hoping that the meteor I ordered for later splits in two, and part of it gets here for the second half.

...

This open thread title reminds me that I need to start a petition to get Flacco’s jersey number changed to 8.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Would he notice?

jjfozz

Hey fuckets! I am hosting Easter dinner. Been smashing brews since 2 pm. I am not in bourble, but give it time.

Love all u guys n gals

CHOCOLATE JEDUS

litre_cola

Would you rather have Pheeeeel and Jeeeeemmm?

Covalent Blonde

I believe we all know who Hippo wants… Joe Fucking Buck

...

You can Joe Buck yourself.

scotchnaut

Cuse doesn’t know any other way to play.

Beerguyrob

Still better than letting Theismann talk football.

scotchnaut

If you need a layup that doesn’t even hit the rim, ya gotta go to Cooney.

litre_cola

Dats raycess!

AT the inlaws, been drinking the good hoock for 3 days, now they are all upstairs watching curling because Canadia, and I am sitting in the man cave downstairs drinking a lovely red wine with the hoops on in solitude. It is a lovely zombie jesus day.

scotchnaut

Sillycuse!

scotchnaut

No one can keep Roberson off the offensive glass.

litre_cola

Come on Orange, they are a completely clean program who concentrates on academics 1st. Boeheim is a gentleman who sculpts these young men’s lives with positive reinforcement.

Bloody Lethal
...

I’m grateful to whomever here referred to Boeheim as a goblin because it’s such an apt description.

Bloody Lethal

Update on BL’s fantasy hockey playoff saga:

Down 6-5-1 going into today’s matchup, BL signed the backup goaltender for the Chicago Blackhawks to try to salvage at least one of 4 goalie categories that he was losing. Also he signed 2 more Carolina Hurricanes and prayed they’d beat the young New Jersey Devils goaltender real bad. So far the matchup has already swung and it might be all over but the shouting. Let’s go Carolina!

ballsofsteelandfury

So, it seems that today we are faced with the Sophie’s Choice of Notre Dame or UNC. My bracket is busted, so go TEAM CHAOS!

scotchnaut

The key for Cuse is to pretend that Virginny is a double digit seed.

Bloody Lethal

Or get calls like they been getting…

/is still bitter about losing a parlay on Gonzaga with horrible officiating in play.
