2017 Madness – Sweet Sixteen Thursday Open Thread

The well sure is running dry FOAR teams fer which to root.  There’s WCS’ cousinfuckers, and 15 shades of hate and/or rape.  Huzzah, Murrika.

#7MW Michigan v. #3MW Oregon (7:09, CBS)

Well, two teams I expected to sputter and fade have instead blitzkrieged through the tourney’s early rounds.  Hopefully, they will at least put on an enjoyable clinic of offensery this evening.

#4W West By God Virginia v. #1W Gonzaga (7:39, TBS)

All I ever needed to know about ESPN’s “BPI” metric is that it gives the ‘Zags the best chance at advancing to the Final Four of any of the sides (like 48%).  Uh, sure, ok.  Expect The King of Track Suits (and Sometimes REI Tents as Mumus) to run train on the media narrative this evening.

#4MW Purdue v. #1MW Kansas (9:39, CBS)

You won’t watch any of this game.  It will be complete and utter shit.  Of course, I’ve underestimated the Boilermakers all along, but still…it ends in ugly fashion tonite.

#11W Xavier v. #2W Arizona (10:09, TBS)

Feel teh soap opera dramatics!!  Sean Miller takes on the place he left FOAR the desert!!  Though to be fair, everyone leaves X but Chris Mack.  Based on the run of play, this could be an excellent, hard fought game that will have you cursing your alarm clock more than usual come Friday morn.

so i was gonna celebrate Purdue’s loss, then I tried to find an accompanying image of a “sexy IU girl” and as luck would have it: Playboy’s “girls of the big ten” provided:

first, a throwback:

if anyone of you feel like offering life advice, without making stonecutter jokes, what do you think about electric cars, thinking of buying a used chevy volt

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

My company had one and it was great for trips under 100 to 130 miles depending on uphill. A small car with leg room.

Brocky

so now the main event is done for the night, feel free to come to the poker table lads

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I think pokermaster balls overestimates our ability, but if anyone wants to join Brocky and I at the hold em table, it’s apparently at high roller limits.

This is why they didn’t allow women to perform this until they were forced to.

Brocky

Tom Crean: Former IU coach, gets fired for only reaching the NCAA tournament 4 times in 9 years, and never advancing past the sweet sixteen:

Matt Painter: Purdue coach who will likely be retained after reaching tournament 9 times, (slightly less impressive when you consider the program he inherited compared to crean) and has only made it to the sweet sixteen 3 times.

I don’t know who’s better, but hearing those hard thinking purdue grads putting their brains to work is sure fun to hear!

I’m at the airport again killing time if anyone wants to play poker instead of bitching about basketball

Someone please tell me the lounge singer in the commercials is a movie character I’m unaware of.

Last good tournament player out of Purdue Glenn Robinson?

/Fuck. It was Glen Rice, wasn’t it?

Brocky

Robbie Humme—HAHAHAHA

sorry, couldn’t type that with a straight face

Brocky

going by the fact that purdue fans constantly bring them up, I’m gonna go with Neil armstrong or drew brees

Fronkenshteen

Purdue needs that Ivan Drago looking motherfucker to catch fiyah.

All of Madison Ave. can get fucked for these TV ads. Such shit. Is this really how fucking stupid we are now?

Unsurprised

Yes

Hey! Let’s advertise our shitty “Italian” subs by depicting the only people on earth who wouldn’t touch one of them with a ten foot shit stick with a nail on the end chowing down with Dick fucking Vitale. Jared going down is really exposing their marketing department.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

At first I thought you were talking about Italian subcontractors….

I’d like to keep my thumbs thank you very much

Woooo! How about Team Collegiate Canada beating the Walmart Wolverines tonight? Best of all, they put up 69 points. Nice.

Manziel possibly signing with the Saints is hilarious because he worked out with a CFL team and they didn’t want anything to do with him.

JerBear50

Yeah, and New Orleans seems like a good place to try and dry out.

I hear the Betty Ford clinic in Bogota is also very effective.

I like her. She seems like a good conversationalist.

Sadly, she’s not. She’s more of a mathematician

Aw. Yeah. Grat right back in the middle of the bracket challenge.

WCS

What the fuck was that.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Sorry WCS…sincerely.

theeWeeBabySeamus

That was not pretty.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Shit, I’m not sure the HWSNBN weave and heave ever produced anything that hideous. Though admittedly I’ve tried to scour that era from my brain.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Well I do now.
Thanks for that.

Now they decide to get fast and loose with the whole ball in the hoop thing FFS.

Insurmountable?

How is that not a foul?
Fuck WVU is getting jobbed here.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Speaking of getting “jobbed”.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

I don’t think she ever got after factory equipment, she was before the time when it was really common place.

Elke Sommer weight: 125 pounds.
measurements: 36-22-36.
bra cup size: 36B.
height: 5″ 7′.

Just pushed up and in…. up and in…….

theeWeeBabySeamus

I appreciate the vitals.
But that wasn’t what I meant by “jobbed”.
I’m way more shallow than that.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

DAMN IT!

Sanchize finalizing deal to go to Bears! They just can’t get out of their own way.

...

I had only one request for the Bears in their QB search: that whomever they start be sufficiently meme-able.

Mission: Accomplished.
