Time to get the sads for the cornucopia coming to a close. Real life beckons soon, unless you have a six-shootin’ pistol and are ready to leave (h/t, Strumbellas):

#9(S) Kansas State (+1, -105) v. #8(S)Creighton (6:50, TNT)
Hey, you want anonymous? This match will give you some anonymous. I think Creigh-Creigh is better coached, and has showed some flashes of upside, so I gives ’em the slightest of edge.
#14(MW) Bucknell (+13.5, +750) v. #3(MW) Michigan State (7:10, CBS)
Ninja, please!
#16(W) Texas Southern (+19, N/A) v. #1(W) Xavier (7:20, TBS)
Mike Davis will find these Jesuits more like his first 13 foes than Wednesday night’s easygoing Central folk. It will be a good tourney for the Queen City (garbage chili varietal).
#13(MW) College of Charleston (+10, +435) v. #4(MW) Auburn (7:27, truTV)
FUCK YOU, who said you can drop “College of” from your name? NAWT Hippo. Auburn is one of those nice “out of nowhere” stories that seems to be coming apart at the end. Methinks they will sputter through one game, but Clemson will smack them good. Over-popular upset pick here.
#16(S) Maryland-Baltimore County (+20, N/A) v. #1(S) Virginia (9:20, TNT)
DO NOT BET the dog here. Wahoowa will be out to make a statement, and we shall see how Retrievers are at fetching they own jocks.
#11(MW) Syracuse (+5, +180) v. #6(MW) TCU (9:40, CBS)
Offer thine blood FOAR the Bloodeyes’ god, because with the Bonnies shitting the bed, it is up to L’Orange to carry on the tradition of at least one play-in piece of flotsam doing some damage. And ain’t nobody (but Scotchy) got time for that.
#9(W) Florida State v. #8(W) Missouri (+2, +115) (9:50, TBS)
The Seminoles are the only favoured 9-seed, and I agree. Much is made of Mizzou’s uber-hyped freshman coming back from injury for the tourney…but he still played in the SEC tournament loss to UGA, didn’t he? Full health and chemistry remain open questions, plus FSU is just better and deeper. Unless they are having one of their off nights – the reason they fell to such a low seed to begin with.
#12(MW) New Mexico State (+4.5, +170) v. #5(MW) Clemson (9:57, truTV)
Speaking of over-hyped upsets – everybody is aboard the “Clemson flops” train but me. I see a legitimate Final Four contender. Not that the Aggies aren’t a dangerous 12 seed – they most definitely are, but rather Clemson is a focused and dogged opponent, who gave UVA a real scare in the ACCT semis.

Just got back from a poker tournament, (finished 9th, top 5 got paid), and the guy hosting it has a kid who goes to UMBC. Apparently it’s a commuter school and it closed at 5 pm today for Spring Break and there are about 5 kids on campus right now. What a waste.
Yeah, UMCP is where the riot action is, or was, before they passed anti-rioting ordinances
UMBC broke the last 24 brackets remaining of the over 17 million registered by ESPN.
I have the stereo on and can still hear the crying.
Sorry, I forgot to turn my mic off.
I’m almost done.
I am edging with all these dead brackets…….
Hehehehehe
I have just now discovered that Snoop Dogg is a game show host.
And Drake is setting records for live video stream watchers on Twitch with Ninja. We live in a Brave New World
No way the touchscreen works through that. And being wet and/or cold also fucks with touchscreens.
It’s a fucking joke.
Still buzzing over UMBC’s triumph. Just incredible.
I;ve never been this drunk before a St Patty’s Day…

I think this is the first year since maybe 6th grade where I totally missed everything March Madness.
Missed a little bit…

Can you imagine a Cerberus as a puppy? C’mon, tell me the image of a three headed puppy trying to chase it’s tail (tails?) doesn’t make you squee
That’s what happens when you spend so much time out da country…you damned commie AYRAB hippie.
I’ve been in the country for at least a month! And I’m not leaving again until next Friday! If ANYTHING I’m a coastal elite who’s out of touch with the Republican base, and also anyone who’s married with kids
Wait…isn’t that what I said?
damned commie AYRAB hippies seem like they would have lots of kids
That’s exactly what a commie AYRAB hippie would say to throw me off track.
Hmmmmmmmm…..
Fuck! Out of window washer fluid!
That is some fine looking lobster mac
You’re damned right it is.
And stop calling me “Mac”.
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYOOOOO!
I don’t know anything about fashion, but I know what is practical and I know what I like.

In all seriousness, I got to see the Retrievers win the American East my freshman year. I took my old man to the championship game. They then got selected as a 15 seed. The rest of my time there, the team was awful. We are research university. The only team that got any kind of support from the administration was the chess team until we got hit with recruitment violations by the NCAA.
I never thought I would see them in the tournament in my lifetime again. I seriously didn’t think they were that good this year…I mean WAY better than normal, but not…well “beating the overall #1 by 20” good.
I had Virginia going into the final four in my bracket.
Virginia was fucking lights out this year. They played an insanely hard schedule. UMBC barely won the fucking American East Conference.
Oh god the local sports radio will be epic this week. When Va Tech goes out of anything, the locals turn into Virginia fans.
As many times I’ve wished I was still in Charlottesville, ohhh man. The Mall might get razed.
I called my old man up and asked him to save me a copy of the Baltimore Sun.
“You think it will make the front page?”
“Yeah…why not?”
“What about your paper?”
“On page 23, they will mention that the NCAA tournament was canceled this year and NO ONE SPEAKS OF THIS AGAIN!”
There will be good people on both sides of the riots!
Don’t look too excited about putting gaffers tape on your cooch.
Here is the slo-mo replay so that NY can make the call.
Shit. I don’t want to cut into my reserve cash but this seems like a good reason to drink.
I am very drunk…
I took an uber to Greg’s house because I needed to take a post game shit.
Thanks to Greg, and his toilet.
And Uber too
Artist conception of Greg’s house once JSD left the bathroom.
Porter, Jr. Vastly overrated.

As a fat, cheap person, this really speaks to me

Waiting for the announcement that Easter Monday is now a holiday for Little Caesars

Which is the best game on right now?
I think it’s just Florida State-Mizzou
FSU vs. Mizzou is all that’s left.
If only she were game for stuff…(with me)
I’d be in good shape if UVa hadn’t FUCKING NARCOLEPSIED FOR FORTY FUCKING MINUTES!!!!!
I mean, ummmm….
Congrats UMBC.
nice….uh….locket

Man, I am perfectly stoned right now
And it’s raining tonight, which is awesome. Raining in Los Angeles. Wow.
Sonic Nights is unfortunately not the crossover game we’ve been waiting for for 20 years.

Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day and a Saturday so I will be boarding up myself in my condo until all the puke is washed away.
Syracuse is going to do this crap again? I need drugs.
Anyway, shoulda been you, Kansas.
Boo. Fucking Protestants. You let evil win..again
Or just in general.
