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!

Yo. The Death of Stalin is super funny, especially with a good audience.

UMBC ML now down to +390 and has become restricted.

I just finished watching Justice League. It was OK. It’s not nearly as bad as people make it seem. The first 30 minutes are bland, but then it gets decent, and sometimes even good.

These DC movies are starting to remind me of Metallica’s St. Anger album. Listen–or in this case watch– it after the vitriol has died down, and you can actually find things to like.

I’d recommend watching this sometime in the summer when there’s nothing else to do. You’ll like it more.

Spending Time with my parents before we leave in 2 weeks. Their passive aggressive angst fuels me.

At this point, go personal worst!

Mr. Ayo

Woohoo! I’ll stop drinking when I fall out of first place.

Senor Weaselo

Shit, he’s dead, Jim.

Mr. Ayo

Merely a liver wound. I’m getting better!

Senor Weaselo

Even if I picked UMich, my bracket’s fucked anyway and this cute oboist who I didn’t ask out last week after the opera because I’m a dumbass went to Houston, so… go them!
/She’s also Canadian, but I do not think Maestro knows her. Or knows her.

Wakezilla

What’s her name? I may know her if she’s from West Canadia

Senor Weaselo

She is not.

Hey, I fucked up like Game Time Decision and created a bracket but didn’t enter it into the DFO contest, even though I signed up. I’m dumb. Could you back door me in, too? Thanks and sorry.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Unlocked. Get your ass in here before someone calls a cop.

But yeah, you should be able to stick it in now.

The first horseman rides a white horse and is the Anti-Christ. The second rider, war, mounts a red steed and carries a sword. The third horseman rides a black horse is famine and holds a pair of scales. The fourth horseman, who sits atop a pale horse, is called Death.

Who’s the fifth?

Who just bought a new Auto Club battery in a Ralphs parking lot?

(hint: it was me)

It’s a pretty good battery! My car is much faster now, and cornering is greatly improved. Plus, this battery model is a real pussy magnet, according to Jorge, the Auto Club battery guy.

I feel like fucking a guy who rolls sniper is an act of charity

Spur

Seriously, can he go medic or support? Be somewhat useful.

Senor Weaselo

I played TF2 for a hot second and I mostly played Medic because I’m a lousy shot. Or Pyro/Heavy because fire and miniguns don’t need aiming.

Gratliff

I also played TF2 for a hot second

Do we not have the technology in the engineering/design department to make a rim that can’t do the wedgeball?

I doesn’t seem that complicated IMHO.

Mr. Ayo

Counter point: Wedgeballs are awesome.

I’m just gonna go ahead and presume we’re talkin’ ’bout different kindsa wedgeballs.
