Huzzah for life distractions!
#10(E) Minnesota (+5.5, +210) v. #7(E) Louisville (12:15, CBS)
Don’t bet the over/under on “Minute Man” Pitino crowd shots. You don’t want to die of liver failure this early in the tourney.
#14(E) Yale (+6.5, +250) v. #3(E) LSU (12:40, truTV)
Oh, the taeks about these fine, upstanding, future white criminal Yalies, as opposed to the ruffian Negroes of the Bayou. But LSU is without its suspended head coach (they think he’s paying folks, imagine that!), which seems vaguely important.
#12(MW) New Mexico State (+5.5, +225) v. #5(MW) Auburn (1:30, TNT)
Here comes the first of everyone’s predicted 12/5 upsets, but Aubie is used to playing folks that call theyselves Aggies. Also, I have a mild pro-Bruce Pearl feeling about this dance. I mean, who wouldn’t want to twirl the ballroom with that handsome devil!
#13(W) Vermont (+8.5, +380) v. #4(W) Florida State (2:00, TBS)
Look, when Scowlin’ Leonard and his Seminole Band go down in flames, I can officially quit caring about my brackets. So, like 4:15 EST??
#15(E) Bradley (+18.5, +1625) v. #2(E) Michigan State (2:45, CBS)
The namesake of many Commentist Party illuminati, but their line does nae make it appear that The Valley is much account this year. You know Sparty, they lose right away, or they at least make the Flacco Eight.
#11(E) Belmont (+3, +140) v. #6(E) Maryland (3:10, truTV)
I was all hype for betting on this, but that payoff is kind of disappoint. Looks like many #HAILGAMBLOR devotees have the same wanking motion opinion of Fear teh Turtle as Hippo does.
#13(MW) Northeastern (+7, +255) v. #4(MW) Kansas (4:00, TNT)
Fuck Northeastern (not to be confused with Northwestern, who lost about 10 too many games to make it), they are who spawned Jim Calhoun. But fuck Kansas MOAR, obvsly, not that it will matter much today.
#12(W) Murray State (+3.5, +150) v. #5(W) Marquette (4:30, TBS)
Murray? Present! And I am disappoint by my payoff yet again. But who doesn’t want to bet against Wojo?
Hey, Fairly Terrible….errrr I mean Fairleigh Dickheads…..when you’re down by 40, celebrating a layup seems pretty stupid.
Sorry…Fairleigh Stupid.
MOAR LIEK Limp Dickerson if u ask me
They’re just chess pieces; what do you expect?
goddamnit Nova
Let’s Go Grizzly Bears!
I would really clean up if Nova wins by exactly 4 or 5! Otherwise, still beat the shit out of these Gaels, pls
Ok Baylor you rapey sons-a-bitches save my gamblorious day.
methinks FL is the only one we agreed on (I didn’t bet Cuse/BayBay, but I have them beating the Zags a lot)
Game is at altitude, they run 8 deep, SU runs 6 guys, it is super late start for Boeheim’s kids is my angle.
I didn’t think it through that far.
anybody old enough to remember Jim Valvano’s NC State loves a junk 1-3-1 or box and 1 like FL just went to.
I’ve seen a LOT of 1-3-1 box scenes I tell you hwat
triangle and 2 was my personal favorite.
That shit worked good.
Come on Florida Men!
THIS, Jeebus
whew, FL keeping my brackets all barely alive
lets go wolfpack.
Nevada basketball yeah!!!!
And Villanova needs to keep up locking this shit down.
thank fuck I got home in time to place an insurance bet on this dumb FL game

Fully just passed out for an hour and a half and Gamblor punished me.
Now begins the annual question “Where the hell is truTV?
Which is the usual follow-up question to, “What the hell is truTV?”
The non-union, Mexican equivalent of Zoey Deschanel?
Completely off subject, but anyone else watching the last season of ‘You’re The Worst’? Two episodes to go and it has been off the charts good.
I fell off of that show after season 2. It was good, I just never picked it up again
Season 3 pissed me off, I skipped 4, came back to see how it ends. By all accounts 2 and 5 are the best seasons, so I guess my timing was good.
Wish I was watching it. In Canadia, they moved it to FXX, which I didn’t have after season 2 and I haven’t heard from it since. It’s a shame because I really enjoyed that show
(phone rings)
Mom: “Redshirt! Your brother’s car has no brakes. It needs sent to repair shop to be fixed. And he needs to be a work tomorrow at 4AM.!”
Redshirt: “Let me know how it turns out.”

iAye Dios Mio!
I apologize if there were crossed wires, I thought we were just gonna have regular open thread up. I don’t communicate well, so the boo-boo is almost surely mine.
Anyway, I am stuck on cell for a bit, in general I really like Nova tonight, and Purdue is ripe for the pickings. Have a buck-fifty on Nova -3.5, and $55 on Old Dominion ML (+700).
Also, I am not certain Fair Dick can really get deep inside Gonzaga.
found a funny:
angel: what’s wrong?
god: I can’t stop the earth spinning
angel: what are you going to do?
god: I think I’ll just call it a day
(an angel walk into the room and notices a disheveled God pacing back and forth)
God: “Okay, I made the earth, light, day and night. I made the sky. I made dry land, seas, and plants. I made the sun, moon, and stars. I made sea creatures and birds. I made land animals and some in my image. What else… What else…”
Angel: “Holy crap, Lord! You’ve been working yourself crazy this week and you’ve accomplished so much. You need your rest.”
Pastor: “And that how the Sabbath Day was created.”
Congregation: “Amen.”
lol my final four didn’t survive the afternoon games. Fuck basketball
Who the hell did you pick?

Nevada aint shit
I don’t think Florida and Nevada are ranked 10th and 7th in anything.
Co-ed venereal disease??
But they should be higher, like 1-2, in stuff like that. And moar liek 49-50 in something good like lack of giant ass fucking cockroaches.
She’s turning my mínima into a máxima. Noche!
Morant needs to be a Spur. Trade for both 1st rounders and White
“Trade for a white? This guy gets it!”
David Dukes
In the car now so glad this wasn’t a great ending that I was stuck with the radio to follow it.
Marquette has no idea how to move the ball
This Ja Morant I call him Robespierre because he is taking the heads off of Marquette
Ja Morant has been dominating out there. I guess you can say, Ja Rule.
the Big East everyone
A reminder than 8-10 in THAT league (where the Champs got a fucking 6 seed) St. John’s got in over 9-9 ACC NC State.
not that I’m goddamned bitter or anything
You know when they announced they were forgoing football to concentrate on basketball, I was under the assumption it was be good basketball.
As someone who has Marquette going far, this result is not very good.
Marquette needs more soldiers out there
I am almost surely ded but did have Murray here.
“The ties that bind-a video essay.”
-Spur
Ja Morant will be a Laker or Knick next year. Poor kid
Breaker Morant doing what he wants to do.
I haven’t see a dog get abused this bad since Michael Vick.
Speaking of inappropriate masturbation, my NCAA feed just had an ad for San Diego. I am seriously disappointed that the music they used was not Jackin’ It.
Dave Smart, the coach of the Carleton Ravens basketball team-the guy that won 14 national champeenships in 20 years has stepped down. Wow.
Shakaing things up I guess.
These Kansas Jayhawks, I call chocolate because the Huskies have clearly consumed them and are now shitting themselves all over the court and is going to lead to their death.
Found out our building maintenance guy like to beat off in the bathroom to stepdad/daughter porn today. Not my best day at the office.
I assume that means you’re fired?
Are you hiring? Also, what’s your wifi password?
[makes weird scratching noises]
That’s gross; I thought Ted Cruz already decreed that step MOM/son porn is the only acceptable coupling.
Heck, I even get grossed out when my lesbo stuff goes all step-sister on me.
The would-be MAGA Bomber pleaded guilty earlier.
Infowars immediately says this is very rare false-false-FALSE flag.
“Is there any other kind?”
Ja is kinda, sorta a beast.
There are 3 people 6 for 6.
Me!
Ron Howard: It wasn’t.
Goddammit Belmont, Simon is disappointed.
Belmont? Of the Belmont clan?
Is Canada full? Asking for a friend?
Tons of room, come on up.
Kelowna is beautiful and has always been a great place when we have visited.
I am here right now!.
It is one of the places we have talked about retiring to when the time comes. Has defined seasons, good food and some really decent wineries according to my wife. Plus it is quite beautiful and we can drive down to Lake Chelan in WA which we just came back from.
How did you like Chelan?
We love it, it was our 3rd visit, my wife loves the wine from the area, it is a beautiful place, and we just love the sense of the place and the local people. Right now it is our #1 retirement choice. I know it is busy in the summer but we definitely want to live in a much smaller town than Raleigh.
Did you try Local Myth Pizza?
Don’t know about you guys but I’m perfect in another fantasy bracket challenge. It’s in Canada so you can’t see it. Probably gonna get first prize which is sex with Shania Twain.
Murray St.?
Ja. The Morant you know…
