World Gawne Mad – Saturday Round of 32 Nighty Night Open Thread

Time to get all liquored/pilled up and go back into heavy channel flip mode.  Talk about timing, huh?

#8(MW) Seton Hall (+4.5, +175) v. #1(MW) Kansas (7:10, TBS)

Whoa, what up with this line? HIPPO SMELL TRAP.  This game is in the state of fucking Kansas, remember.  Yeah, I know The Hall beat the tar shit out of mah Shitty Wolves ™ – but really, that just means they are capable of watching film.  Still, I ain’t bet this either way.

#5(W) Ohio State (+3.5, +155) v. #4(W) Gonzaga (7:45, CBS)

Both these bunches of overrated cumstains should have lost in the first round, and we would be talking Spartans/Jackrabbits.  Wouldn’t that be a vast improvement?  Instead, you get one more night being reminded that Dan Dakich somehow, someway bred.  Go Zags (spits on ground).

#6(E) Florida (+1.5, +110) v. #3(E) Texas Tech (8:40, TNT)

Another matchup that chaps my ass.  Neither really much belongs here, but the Bonnies didn’t show up, and Steve Austin caught some rough breaks (and shite calls) late.  They are pretty much the same side, and the line reflects same.  Perhaps they will manage to entertain us?  Anyway, I like Guns Up!! from a cheer talent perspective.

#6(W) Houston (+3, +145) v. #3(W) Michigan (9:40, TBS)

Here is your real showdown of at least the night session, probably the entire Saturday slate.  Winner gets the pleasure of whipping U*NC’s ass next week, and meeting Xavier in a magnificent regional final.  Methinks JV Yoooooooouston gets it done, and I’m sure Al Michaels was just as offended not to get better odds on our moneys here.  C’mon, Meeeechigan is s’posed to be a public team, FFS!

Got a nice little Jameson high going right now.

Horatio Cornblower

Got a nice little “5 beers at the bar and now I’m home so fuck it what’s one more” high going right now.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Jameson High? What’s the address?

– R. Moore

Horatio Cornblower

My son and I are playing Fortnite in front of his girlfriend. I finished 7th in my only game. So far he hasn’t beaten 60.

This is really awkward.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Imma hold off judgement until I find out if “playing Fortnite” is a euphemism for some kinda weird shit.

Mr. Ayo

Nah, that’s later between Hornblower and the girl

herodotus450

Maybe she doesn’t think finishing first is all that impressive

Horatio Cornblower

herdotus, I don’t say this lightly, but that was fucking hilarious.

herodotus450

(Must. Not. Make. Joke. About. Fucking. Hilariously.)

Horatio Cornblower

You’re on a roll man, go for it.

WCS

What’s Fortnite?

Mr. Ayo

2 weeks (14 days)

Horatio Cornblower

It’a video game that’s all the rage with the kids.

herodotus450

About two weeks.
/Boom

Gratliff

I haven’t tried it yet, or even PUBG. I feel like this is the part where I become the uninformed old person of the gaming community.

Gratliff

In fact, this makes me want to rock out to some Unreal Tournament II while listening to Tool.

Spur

on PC or console?

Horatio Cornblower

Console. XBox1

Gratliff

Oh shit. You’re the other guy who owns an Xbox One. I knew I couldn’t be alone.

WCS

Fuck Gonzaga. That is all.

litre_cola

Big daddy Drew started a thread on twitter that is fantastic. It is about grandfathers. It is hilarious.

theeWeeBabySeamus

You misspelled “repourt”.

litre_cola

Power grandpa moves. So people are chiming in what their grandfathers did like eat onions whole, buttermilk and cornbread, among other things. I have been chuckling for half an hour.

*It is far more humoUrous than my summation.

theeWeeBabySeamus

O/U on how long until the PTSD Bad Touch guy shows up and darkens things a little?

litre_cola

That is a shame because it is a pure truly funny thread that causes no harm.

theeWeeBabySeamus

But you know it’s gonna happen.
Let’s make some money off it. You know Hippo will bet the under, damn pessimistic prick.
😛

Horatio Cornblower

I saw that, but writing “Grandpa was largely sedentary and died of a massive heart attack at 70” seems like it would be less than impressive.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Looks like Ayo just lost his first place lead in the brackets. He just got overtook by….just about everybody, holy shit.
6 way tie for the top, currently. Well done, gents.

Mr. Ayo

My slow decent to mediocre has commenced.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I started mine years ago.

Mr. Ayo

Guys. I’m only referring to this 3 week period.

On whole I too am well below any lofty heights.

theeWeeBabySeamus

— Doug Martin

theeWeeBabySeamus

Did I just see a fabled box and one defensive set?
Or am I just high?

Yes, it could be both.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Damn, this fucking game got good all of a sudden.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Mrs. Few looks very stressed. I’d like to give her a nice calming massage.

Mr. Ayo

“Euro step”
aka travel

Senor Weaselo

“What’s a travel?” -NBA and NCAA refs

Col. Duke LaCross

There’s a called moving screen.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Amazing, huh?

litre_cola

Is that like they call escalators in the UK moving stairs?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Uppydoodles

litre_cola

Aussies are folk who love to make up words for things.

Senor Weaselo

Have they ever started doing the post-game Rock Chalk and then LOST? Because that would be funny.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I believe that’s Hall Ball.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Maybe not. Either way let’s get on with it.

theeWeeBabySeamus

That was a dagger. I hate KU.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Come on Pie rats, you can do this!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

Jumping on the live ML+390 when Loyola fell behind early seems to have been a good move I guess.

Also $200 Seton Hall +200, which doesn’t seem to be as good a move.
Almost parlayed the two, which I’ll be pissed I didn’t if SH finds a way to come back.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Payout for hitting that would have been $6k+. It was tempting.

Announcer in the osu-gonzag game justused that phrase, so I’m bound by blood oath to post the song

herodotus450

7 point lead, the most dangerous lead in second round ncaa tournament basketball

herodotus450

If Gonzaga ever needs help getting the most out of this kid Perkins, they can always call up Tiger Woods for advice.

herodotus450

Name 5 bigger neutral sinkholes.

Senor Weaselo

Plot twist: Custer’s Last Stand was a success.

They’re going to do body shots off sister jean tonight.

Spur
WCS

Negative.

WCS

I get the feeling these Capital One commercials with Barkley aren’t scripted. They just follow him around, and that’s really what he does.

Senor Weaselo

Rock fights in Wichita are the only way to neutrally settle things, apparently.

WCS

WEIRD

Mr. Ayo

MAYBE

Brick Meathook

Did you know that Google Cloud is the official cloud of the NCAA?

Well, they are.

litre_cola

But the players make the money from the advertising right?

litre_cola

Folks here, I’m in kitchen housing white wine to avoid inane conversation. Man I want to smoke some weed.

Spur

Chicago Catholics are on fire

Senor Weaselo

I haven’t seen Diallo take that many big shots since 1999.
/Going to hell for this one

Mr. Ayo

If I could get 18 and 19 year olds to bend to my will I wouldn’t be wasting that talent on coaching.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

This game is the definition of almost close
