World Gawne Mad – Sunday Afternoon Round of 32 Open Thread

I don’t really have the stomach for this after what happened with Houston (the closest I had to a rooting interest), but fuck it, a responsibility is what it is.

#10(E) Butler (+3.5, +145) v. #2(E) Purdue (12:10, CBS)

Suspiciously low line due to the broken right elbow of the Boilers’ better Nazi fuck centers.  He is apparently trying to have his brace cleared for combat, and to play through it.  We shall see.

#11(MW) Syracuse (+9, +380) v. #3(MW) Michigan State (2:40, CBS)

Boy howdy, this ought to be a fucking Rembrandt.  Thank God this is a national game with no channel flipping options!

#7(W) Texas A&M (+6, +225) v. #2(W) U*NC (5:10, CBS)

You have no idea how much I wish this was a JV NFL contest.  As it is not, your humble scribe has no idea how the line is only 6 in favour of the evil assholes with the bye to the Sweet Sixteen.

#7(S) Nevada (+8, +325) v. #2(S) Cincinnati (6:10, TNT)

Nevada came back from 14 down to defeat Texas.  Nevada will likely found themselves down 14 again this evening.  And keep digging.

Do you think getting your skin tattooed should be a criminal offense? The Masters, coming soon.

Would you rather spend all of your leisure time with your middle-aged male friends than with a woman, all the while talking about how homosexuals are ruining Western civilization, without the slightest sense of irony? The Masters, coming soon on CBS.

Well, UNC probably is going to lose embarrassingly early, but the important thing is that all of their student-athletes will have the benefit of four years of Roy Williams’s guidance, his insistence that they attend religious services for at least their first year in college, and the well-known benefits of a degree from the University of North Carolina degree.

In other words, they’re totally fucked.

I’m not 100% satisfied with this joke but it’s time to move on.

So Syracuse just put the kibosh on my bracket, what with me figuring that since Michigan State had one back when Magic Johnson didn’t have HIV they were surely due to do so this year, and now I just want Duke and UNC to lose as miserably as possible.

This tournament I call it a poorly run AA meeting because there are so many steps being given out
