Top of the evenin’ to ye. Happy St. Patrick’s Day.
Well, there’s only one topic tonight – the NCAA Brackets. Feel free to discuss who got screwed versus who didn’t deserve to get in down in the comments.
If we do have another Bracket tournament this year, please remember to join it. The one we had last year was spectacular because of all the upsets, leading to a close finish for first place. In the haze of a year gone by, I forget how things turned out…

Anyone talking about the Yale QB who was just signed by the lolFins?
Is Wakezilla ok?
BloodSugarFitzMagik went to Harvard, you boorish Yalie!
great use of teh vernacular! And the GIF-age
He went to Harvard? I had never heard that before – J. Bettis Detroit, MI
Gotta have at least one Green beer for St. Patrick’s Day…

Sidney Crosby should retire imo
My recency bias tells me that Yale is winning this whole gotdamn thing. My reality bias tells me Cuse misses the flight to Salt Lake City and squeezes out a W against an Albany YMCA pickup team.
Both the Flyers and Pens have just god awful black unis this year
Way too many people posting images of corned beef and cabbage on social media tonight who clearly are too drunk to realize corned beef and cabbage is fucking garbage.
I’ve never understood the need to add cabbage to the dish, but we make a delicious corned beef at my house.
And by “we” I mean I pay for it and my wife cooks it.
My dad, who I’m pretty sure woke up still drunk most days, used to make ham & cabbage all the fucking time with enough vinegar to strip the paint off the fucking walls. Goddamn it, it stunk so bad. I can’t imagine he ever actually enjoyed eating it.
Seeing corned beef pictures completely fueled my wild urge to drive 20 miles to get a pastrami sandwich yesterday.
Pastrami: the other corned beef
Cole slaw: the other cabbage
Nothing like seeing a happy John Calipari talking about “empowering” his team, which is a funny way to pronounce “paying.”
Superb work.
I finished fourth last year?
The other three contestants……
So either tonight is Penguins firmly booting Flyera out of the playoff picture, or one last glimmer of hope to force me to watch this failure of a season in its entirety. Funny story, last time the Flyers barely snuck into the playoffs, they did it on a shootout win against the Rangers in 2010. They went to the Finals that year, including the 0-3 comeback against Boston. Fuck this team for having a history that forces me to watch everything until the very end.
Good job, Cincinnati!
You haven’t said that since you got a $5 hummer from a hooker named Sinsinatty.
Are you sure it wasn’t Cinthia with the scar and the natty dreads?
My support is firmly behind the Anteaters.
Thank you. When the revolution comes, you will be last against the wall.
Yes! First in line!
But the first in the anthill.

I have felt pride in a Cincinnati sports team since the 2010 Reds won the division and the 1991-1993 Cincinnati Bengals went 19-0 three years in a row in Tecmo Super Bowl.
Can’t believe UConn didn’t make it. The committee just doesn’t have any respect for the depth of the…
(checks notes)
the AAC? What the fuck is the AAC?
It’s the noise Cathy makes when she sees herself in a bikini.
They’re the Big East teams that kept playing football.
I know; I send my kid to the school currently losing $41 million a year on sports because of that wise decision.
The Boondock Saints: Overrated Movie or Most Overrated Movie?
I have yet to watch it. I’ve heard endless recommendations to do so, but I trust my instincts.
Prepare to find yourself saying “I just don’t see it” afterwards.
Yeah, Saints going after a bounty? What’s next, some kind of flying metal horseless carriage?
I think if you watch it once, then don’t go to southieopinions.com you’ll be fine. It’s a fun little diversion, like beating off with steel wool gloves.
It’s one of my favorite movies, so, respectfully die in a fire, sir.
Oh, the Irish Millenial has checked in. Go drink your Four Loko and listen to your Limp Bizkit, junior, and leave the movie-knowing to us war* veterans.
(*War on drugs. I won.)
How about the sequel? I vaguely recall getting through about 10 minutes of it and then flipping the channel and never going back.
Like Spiderman 3, it never happened.
Boondock Saints was saved by William Defoe, I realized this even more when watching the sequel.
I haven’t seen this much controversy over a selection show since the last time I went to a brothel.
(sighs; pinches bridge of nose) Once again, you walked in during a bust, selected an uniformed officer and screamed “I’M NOT INTO BDSM! I’M NOT INTO BDSM!” as she arrested you.
Of course FC Cincy’s stadium is loud. Nippert Stadium was built into a hill. Do some research, announcers!
TCU and NC State should be in over ASU and St. John’s. AT LEAST.
Did you know Bobby Hurley went to Duke? Your argument holds no weight.
But the Johnnies went 3-2 against Marquette and Nova! And fuck all when it mattered!
/As I have or will mentioned the First Four does NOT count as making the tournament
Holy shit, FCC!
somebody told me Shitty Wolves not even First Four out? Who were they??
TCU, NC-Greensboro (?), Indiana (??) and some other dickhole I don’t remember.
every region is pretty tough except the East (Dook). Zion, Zion!, ZION!!!!
Arizona State sneaks in; Blax celebrates, Hippo and Seamus (continue) to drink.
you could sense it coming, with the last play-in out west, I suspected the fuckers were putting Sparky in. 3 from the goddamned, motherfucking piece of shit Pac-whatever
I came here to rage about sparky not getting in. What can i rage about now????
/makes the Larry David stinkeye face
Against the dying of the light?
alternatively, do you have any machines handy?
Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me.
Ooh, Super Bowl flashback.
I don’t celebrate. Fuck those guys.
I only hope they get bounced so hard that they become the 2019 symbol of not belonging.
Fucking Larry Scott. I hope Sean Miller’s testimony tears down the entire NCAA.
they’ll declare everyone evil but Duke, U*NC, Kansas, and Gonzaga, who they will make the permanent automatic Final Four.

Have a green beer, man.
OH BULLSHIT. OHIO STATE??
Has absolutely nothing to do with Ohio State hosting Round 1 games. Just a coincidence.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/mar/17/mikhail-lesin-ex-putin-adviser-found-dead-dc-hotel/
Ruled accidental.
I mean of course unless u some libtard conspiracy theorist
Two shots to the back of the head accidental?
I think that was a suicide; he was quite flexible.
Priorities.
My two cousins are sisters (they’re from Michigan, so keep your WVU jokes), and the older graduated from Minnesota, the younger is going to Louisville. Those schools play each other in the first round.
Also, congrats on getting hosed by the Committee, Redshirt. Cincy deserved better than a seven.
Cincy and Nova will provide many “upset” bonus points
Oklahoma getting a 9 seems a bit generous.
WVU beat them two times out of three this year, so yeah. I agree.
Used to it. The Committee has never forgiven the UC Bearcats for the 2nd Round exits as #1 and #2.
Incredible.
Cincy’s a #7 seed?! I mean they don’t have to travel to Seattle or Mars like normal, but a #7 seed?!
They get the #2 in Ohio, though. TN can’t be loving that.
You know, if Lionel Hutz had taken Chester’s case on contingency, he’d have been set for life. Ah. Even when he’s being clever he fucked himself. My kind of lawyer.

No, Money Down!
This Bar Association logo shouldn’t be on here, either…
this is the murder region
Anteaters? What kind of team name is “Anteaters”?
The best nickname this side of the Banana Slugs.
how is Nova just a 6??
OH FUCK YEAH WE ARE TAKING DOWN KANSAS STATE
UVA bracket pretty strong
I wonder if Virginia will be the first #1 to be an underdog,
I see the committee gave Duke the annual clear route to the Final Four.
One region revealed, one Guinness downed.
I hope there are 12 regions.
I’m glad they’ve gone back to East South West Midwest instead of City Names. It was confusing playing a Charlotte Region 1st Round Game in Seattle.
Duke has a cakewalk to the regional final. NC State getting fucked out of a bid.
We do have a bracket challenge! ESPN Bracket Challenge, our group name is DFO Bracket Insanity and the password is DFO.
Get in, get active, then let’s get drunk!
I can’t wait to go to work tomorrow and sign up!
This is so fake. That Gemini nose cone is all wrong.

A hearty DFO welcome to all y’all who been out fire-bombing Protestants.
DEATH TO THE EMPIRE!
I’m wearing my favorite Irish shirt today.
I only wear this at home just because.
