World Gawne Mad – Sunday Evening Round of 32 Open Thread

I am about ready to go back to work at this point.  See any typos below?  Eat shit.

#5(MW) Clemson (+1, +105) v. #4(MW) Auburn (7:10, TBS)

Speaking of great football games…still, at least the ACC’s Tigers can hoop it up pretty good.  I think they have a shot against Kansas, too.  Not that I advise putting stock in anything I say.

#16(S) Maryland-Baltimore County (+10.5, +435) v. #9(S) Kansas State (7:45, truTV)

How dare they bump our erstwhile heroes to the nether regions of truTV!  They’re gonna win again tonight, too.

#9(W) Florida State (+5.5, +214) v. #1(W) Xavier (8:40, TNT)

For the Jesuit wet dream (that won’t get you on a registry) to happen in the Sweet Sixteen, X has to get past Scowlin’ Leonard and his deep, athletic horde first.

#13(E) Marshall (+12.5, +613) v. #5(E) West By God Virginia (9:40, TBS)

The last wild-ass, dumb-ass prediction you have to hear out of my stupid index fingers is that #WeAreBlackLungCumstains will indeed knock off their hated “snob” kissin’ cousins to advance to the Sweet Sixteen.  Marshall is too hot, and playing too loose and fast for an inconsistent WVU squad to handle right now.  BUHLEE DAT!

I wish UMBC didn’t have such a cool mascot cause otherwise I’d insist on referring to them as the ‘Cords.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I hope the UMBC coach played the music from Hooisers at halftime.

Unsurprised

Ironically?

My wife has been away for all of three hours on a business trip and I’m already to the point where I’m licking oven mitts.

Down by five in the second round…END OF THE WORLD!!!

Hehe…if they get hot in the second half, this should get interesting. Either way, Retrievers are doing awesome.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah, they are getting treats regardless of how this ends.

JustStopDude

I keep expecting them to just give up and face reality.

Brick Meathook

TruTV’s regular programming looks like bottom-of-the-barrel dog shit

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Fun fact: I keep a literal barrel* of dogshit in my yard.

*is actually a bucket

Unsurprised

How many people piss you off daily that you keep an arsenal for retaliation?

Brick Meathook

You could get a production deal at TruTV

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

So I just turned on the Clemson game. Even the announcing team sounds like they are doing an imitation of bench players who are just in the game to get some experience.

Spur

looks like Maryland County Lockup is struggling

JustStopDude

That is Jessup High School…

theeWeeBabySeamus

Gotta once again give Hippo credit. He been singin’ Tigger praises and I’ve been skeptical.
As usual, he’s smarter.

Tiggs look inspired.

The tigers I’m watching are down by 40 though.

Chas Barkley singing “Friends in Low Places”? Channel change!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Except based on his history of being arrested for solicitation he’s at least genuine in his sentiment.

JustStopDude

K-State and their fans seem to be awfully excited to be beating a 16 seed by a single point right now

So it seems like hack and slash really works…especially when the officials don’t call shit…

JustStopDude

The kid running the UMBC twitter feed is on fire again tonight…

should…..should we call someone? https://t.co/rKbOGGBiRG

Croooow

Haha, preemptively cut-off the audio.

Spur

Cameras on the crying kids in the stands is the best.

Croooow

Over/Under on the upcoming F-Bombs?

Spur

Damn you suck Cincy. They couldn’t even get a shot off. Your punishment is having to return to Ohio.

JustStopDude

I can get dressed up for that…

LemonJello

OH, HE FANCY.

rockingdog

can confirm, that does feel nice.

Spur

yes please

JustStopDude

Damn…there goes the shutout…

I am disappointed…

theeWeeBabySeamus

I don’t wish to raise the ire of teh Hippo, but I need this Nevada result to hold up.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I had quit watching it. But that little comeback was good for $750 for me. ($200 at +375)

Smaller amts on UMBC +375 and Marshall +550 too, but that’s the one I really wanted.

Got to put in the work!

Spur

And Nevada completes another comeback.

JustStopDude

I like UMBC’s Shetland Point Guard…

No…FOCUS DAMN IT!!!

9/10 would pet repeatedly.

Spur

Cincy about to shit their pants. too much skyline chili.

ballsofsteelandfury

It does? That shouldn’t be…

Spur

Roy is ded. Can Coach Rat Face be next please.

LemonJello

Instead of death, wouldn’t it be more fitting if Ol’Roy was stricken with an injury/illness that left him physically immobile, but fully aware of his condition, so he could piss and shit himself for a few years?

And then he could die.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

If he was in a persistent vegetative state he couldn’t coach basketball at UNC anymore. He could still probably get work there as a professor, though.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

BARTENDER: [opens keg of Bud Light] Ugh! There’s something wrong with this keg. Get a new one!

[six seconds later]

BARTENDER: Oh. I guess it’s supposed to taste like that.

Horatio Cornblower

HA-HA, fuck off Roy, you sanctimonious hypocrite.

LemonJello

sanctimonious hypocrite

No one on the U*NC team knows what these “words” mean…

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Were people making jokes about Laurie Fine during the Syracuse game? I missed it.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I wouldn’t wish death on my worst enemy*. Roy is not my worst enemy, though, so I’ll happily wish it on him.

*because I don’t want their jail sentence cut short prematurely.

Fronkenshteen

At work till 10. (guh) How’s the complete destruction of U*NC going over around here?

LemonJello

Ol’Roy is going to be so mad, those fuckers will be actually going to class tomorrow.

Fronkenshteen
