Unwatchable Finale Game Thread

Don’t mind me, I shall gladly sleep and bask in the sweet 36-hour glow of the Small Bears occupying sole possession of last place* in the NL Central.  Gotta take those small victories when one can.

#1W Gonzaga v. #1S U*NC (9:20, CBS)

CBS got the final they wanted, and will likely get the Ol’ Roy championship they want, too.  Verily, we are part of the Darkest Timeline.  Just don’t look, just don’t look.

*Goddamnit, really??  The Pie-rates done already lost and I can’t even has that?  Die in a fire, fucking universe.

We may as well get completely comfortable.

She doesn’t skip workouts

Unsurprised

Exercise is important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Wakezilla

It is. Sadly, I went to the gym for the first time this year today. It wasn’t pretty.

Unsurprised

At least you went. That’s the important part.

OH YEAH!

So is the WCC only the second best conference in college basketball?

I hate Mark Wahlberg

Senor Weaselo

We don’t get Crying Jordan, but at least we get to make fun of “The ceiling is the roof” which makes this better than the last time UP/NC won?

Mark Few: “Well, being from the WCC, we didn’t see why a guy with a broken ankle couldn’t lead us to a last-minute comeback. I mean, when do those UNC players even have TIME to go to class?”

Croooow

Gonzaga should go to a better conference.

blaxabbath

No. I like them as a paper tiger 1-seed.

blaxabbath

I’m already sick of the “This is the first time all season that Gonzaga got out-______’d!”

Mr. Ayo

Agreed. This is clearly the SECOND time all season Gonzaga got out-scored.

blaxabbath

AYOOOOOOOOOOOO!

So I would have won the bracket challenge if I hadn’t given WI a couple extra rounds of surviving. I trusted the Senior class too much and admitted as much when I filled it out to start. Congrats Rev

blaxabbath

That’s noble of you. I’m just gonna blame a bunch of 19 year olds for not overachieving.

blaxabbath

Goddamn! I hope I never get shot in the head by a sniper.

So what’s next? Auburn Pro Day? The Draft? NBA Playoffs?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Auburn Pro Day is what they call it when they pay their recruits out of high school

Croooow

Stanley Cup playoffs?

Somewhere Adam Morrison is still crying

Brick Meathook

Greatly lucrative! Therefore… I nevermore search what I ask for. Much far more ideas and much even more nonconformity… a comment, I will actually do this.

Did anyone check for where the little reset button on Brick is? I’ve got the paper clip right here but I’m not putting it anywhere I don’t have to.

Figures the first time I truly allow myself to put any sort of faith into Gonzaga, they shit their pants at most critical moment.

blaxabbath

La La La!

WCS

Someone check on Hippo…

Senor Weaselo

Gonzaga, never doing anything right since… well, always.

blaxabbath

They don’t bother with a football program. That’s a smart start.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Is Hippo ok?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh
Gratliff

I have watched exactly zero of the finals. I take it this was the correct choice?

Sill Bimmons

Sorry Wee Baby Seamus.

This is as fucked up as everything else that’s happened over the last year.

blaxabbath

As always, I agree with Sill.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Isn’t the important thing that Roy Williams will still rot in hell?

blaxabbath

Gonzaga Bulldogs: didn’t belong then, doesn’t belong now.

blaxabbath

I wonder if Sega is still going to charge Gonzaga for using their font on their jerseys?

That is obviously a Russian trying to speak English. I am sticking with my theory

Gratliff

See what happens when you try to find out how to make $2000 a week working from home?

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

Meathook is either drunk or some Russian hacked his password and is trying to take over his account. If I am being honest either way seems like fun to me

blaxabbath

No way is this a hack job. This reads like every commenter on a DIY blog:

“Great site! So glad I came across your chocolate chip cookie recipe! Maybe you’d like some of the great recipes I’ve compiled on my page! I’d love to see what you think! http://www.brickmeatshook.com! Cheers!”

Senor Weaselo

If you combined the NBA All-Star Game’s lack of defense with the shooting visual fuckery of playing in some massive arena, could you get a normal scoring basketball game?

Brocky

….. yeah, if gonzaga could jut go on a monster 14-0 run here, that would be great

evening.

Oh yeah, like we’re gonna start calling travelling now

How come none of the North Carolina alumni in the crowd made signs to support their Tarheels? Oh, right, cause they don’t teach sign-writing at UNC, or any other type of writing.

Sharkbait

Just tobacco picking

Senor Weaselo

Why do you think they go by three letters?

I’d like to see hockey penalty rules implemented in basketball: basically, unless you hit the floor it’s not a foul

“Nice pass.”

These tournament commercials I call them Austrian Art School, because they really make me want to send all wheelchair basketball players to the gas chamber

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Wow, you guys care even less about this game than I do.

Sharkbait

This game is the Houston Texans of college basketball

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

RTD’s internal monologue:

“Hmm, I’m getting chilly. I should go grab a sweater.”

“I’ll wait for a commercial.”

[watches for five seconds]

“Eh, I don’t care enough about this game to wait.”

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

We need to do a better job of making fun of North Carolina’s laughable academic program.
For example:

North Carolina’s students are so illiterate…

HOW ILLITERATE ARE THEY?

North Carolina’s students are so illiterate that they can’t even read this sentence.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

So how come there seems to be a measurable amount of antipathy towards Gonzaga around here, as opposed to complete indifference?

entropy

Because they have repeatedly been labeled a serious contender, selected by a large number of pool entrants/degenerate gamblers, and always, always screwed over the people who demonstrated faith in them?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Faith? How about unsupported overconfidence, gambling emotion, and just plain stupidity.

Mr. Ayo

EAST COAST BIAS!

LemonJello

I tried, but I just can’t make myself give a flying fuck at a rolling donut on a gravel driveway about this game.

I’ll leave you all to enjoy the late night shenanigans with this:

Hearing them describe Karnowski as a “mountain of a man” makes me think he earned his reputation by torturing the smallfolk.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

“My doctor told me that I’m a drug addict like so many of this nation’s citizens before me, but because so many people suffering from opioid addiction are white and not entirely poor, there’s actually a substantial amount of concern about how to properly address this health crisis, and, if possible, profit from it. Now take your medicine so you can shit properly.”

Brick Meathook

Hey RTD I listened to your DFO Radio compilation today. Awesome!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Lots of great suggestions this week. I’d have put the Pearl Jam song up front if I’d noticed it earlier (and also if it didn’t have like 40 seconds of dead air at the end of the video, nice job original uploader…)
