King Hippo gave me the raging semi, by the way. He’s good like that-a real solid internet buddy, as opposed to all you viscous, semi-transparent folks out there in the ether.
So kiddos, we all know who’s playing who and where they’re playing and what sport they’re playing and which planet they’re playing on. Why don’t we get to know these schools? Maybe even rub up against one of their players, smell them-get to really know them? As Guga from Sous Vide Everything would say, “Lessss do it”.
Auburn:
This delightful learning center is located in the very appropriately-named community of… Auburn. The 25 member naming committee spent nearly three weeks in The Seychelles coming up with that doozy. Expletives were tossed, noses were bloodied, skin was burned and copious bottles of rum were consumed before the 30-23 vote sealed the deal. (Mathematics is not one of the stronger programs here) But hey, I can tell you that the Cat Drowning: How to Turn Your Hobby Into a Profitable Business course is full year after year.
Player to Watch:
Jared Harper is a cheeky fellow that pushes the play upcourt, can seemingly get to the basket at will and never asks, “Does anyone want that last chicken wing?”. So alpha…
Virginny:
As it says right there in the name, students here are all virgins-just like Sally Hemings was until she turned 14. Mr. Jefferson’s birthday ‘gift’ didn’t go over very well initially but he did keep on giving until an understanding was reached. Jefferson apologist Sandford Fleming would later qualify the former’s actions by saying, “It was a different time!”. Some courses offered in the Agricultural Sciences Program include How to Lick The Gucci Loafers of Monsanto Executives and Still Maintain Your Dignity. Mike Tyson is a guest lecturer in the summer and his The Chickens, They Cry in my Dreams: Why I Sold Tyson Foods for Pennies on the Dollar is back by popular demand.
Player To Watch: Kyle Guy came out of nowhere to burn Purdue for 25 points. His pre-game speeches to his teammates consist solely of quotes from Girl, Interrupted.
Texas Tech:
Should you bother to do a quick Googgly map search of this precious college you’ll see that it’s nestled softly between Gus’ House of Stuffed Newts (not a sponsor) and a barren wasteland being traversed by a boy and his father. (Spoiler-the dad dies and so will Gus, eventually) One course offered that has raised more than a few eyebrows is Dennis Rader’s All Trussed Up and Nowhere To Go: Examining the Predator/Prey Dynamic in Hitchcock’s “Rope”. Obviously this is only available on-line.
Player To Watch: Jarret Culver is 195 pounds of coiled steel. He’ll spring at you when you least expect it. Don’t dismiss this dude just because he has a 25+ fanny pack collection.
Michigan State:
This pride and joy of the lower peninsula is situated in East Lansing because-and I’m quoting from the school’s mission statement here-“We’re gonna teach (HA!) those retards in North Lansing how to run a proper fucking school!”. Seems like there’s a bit of history there… Anyhoo, one of the profs teaching Fluid Dynamics 101 is certain that a solution to the age-old ‘why can’t a free-standing colander ever be filled with running tap water?” problem is just around the corner.
Player To Watch: Joshua Langford has a tendency to score in the teen’s and with the teens. Let’s all hope that he grows out of that last tendency in the next few years.
There you have it. Bet accordingly.
Texas Tech honkey really likes that little fade away jumper in the paint.
I mean, he’s not good at it, but he really likes it.
wedged goddamned three. Dunno if I ever seen that
So. Many. Airballs.
she has mah attention
Holy shit.
I like how she’s pliable.
teh best quality a woman can have ,, ppl forget that
Second best quality?
Moisture.
Physically anyway; she argues with everything tho.
(North) Hollywood has a career in mind for her.
Wahoowa is silky smooth compared to these two chucklefucks
That’s some good head
Mah Holmes is at the game!!!!!
Start the jokes!!!!!
Daddy decilitre day has come to a close for now. Time to get stoned!
Texas Tech Cheerleaders still fun to look at….check.
Glad I have no affiliation with Auburn. Good Lord.
The Carrick Bend:
Holy piss, that was a double dribble. Yikes.
Holy piss………double dribble
merde, I should have watched my backlog of High Maintenance episodes at the break, but guess I just spaced
also in retrospect, that ending is a good reminder NOT TO BET BASKETBALL
Beverly hills cop is on. Tough decision to make.
Apparently, the WWE HoF had an idiot on the field moment and a fan tackled Bret Hart during a speech and I hope he’s going to be removed from the arena by being smacked into a wall until it breaks.
This just means the next game will be completely terrible.
oh, without question. But at least we can pass out!
That call is no more “controversial” than saying “vaccines cause autism”.
now that double dribble – which I completely missed…yikes
I don’t mind Tony Bennett’s overt evangelism, because unlike DABO! – he actually walks the walk and is a humble, excellent dude.
He’s a good guy. I happened to be in a pizzeria when he walked in. He bought everyone’s meals in line, and gave money to those that already had their’s.
DABO! would have left a $10 tip, and put it all over Instagram
There are a lot of local folks that are saying he needs to come to UCLA.
Most of them are as delusional as Lakers fans.
Poor, poor Auburn.
Wow. This is a shithouse way to lose.
if any solace to it…Bruce Pearl is maybe the cheatin-est mofo out there. AND a hypocrite (he snitched on someone else)
Wow.
they fouled the honky, too. That’s DED
HOLE E. FUCKING. SHIT.
he ain’t touch him A-TALL
stand corrected, good call
Major guts by the official to actually make the call in that situation.
agreed, could have just let it go, nobody says boo. I am wrong a lot, but at least I admitted being wrong here LMAO
I sure hope the winner wins it all. Whoever gets out of this deserves it.
I would like to see barkley and Bo happy.
oh, what a way to lose….
War Damn Foul!
#AnotherAyoBanner
Guess this fixture is kinda ok. 😀
If Auburn loses this, and they DON’T have a torchlight march through campus chanting “HOOS! WILL NOT! REPLACE US!” then Doug Kenny’s entire life was lived in vain.
The One-Handed Bowline:
I can do that without a glove
I lived in Charlottesville for two and half years.
This game is friggin awesome.
OK, time to party.
somebody tell Nantz his white ppl boner is showing
I haven’t seen this many shots rejected since the movie Jarhead
Fucksticks. You guys all know the drill. It’s 7:15 STD-time for this shithead to cry into his pillow until the dream bears take me to Rainbow Village.
/nighters
Kids are watching the cartoon Peter Pan from God-knows-when. I’m watching this for the first time in at least 30 years. Holy hell is this movie racist. Like, wow.
Yeah everybody always conveniently forgets the blackface part
This is almost impressively racist. Hitler and Mussolini must have loved this.
snowflaek!!!1111
The Blimp Knot, also known as the Zeppelin Bend.
It’s used to tie blimps and zeppelins to their mooring masts. The airship drops a nose line; the ground crew ties it to the mooring line that is threaded through the mast tip, then the airship is pulled home on the mast. So this knot has to have no slip yet untie easily after strain is removed.
I can tie the shit out of this knot.
Nice.
A zeppelin bend I just tied (I prefer “zeppelin bend” to “blimp knot” for obvious reasons).
Expert Knotsman is on my resume, in bold italics with underline.
Expert Not Man is featured prominently on Caitlyn Jenner’s recently revised CV.
Love this game. Two very different teams trying desperately to impose their will on the other. Beautiful.
Competitive 69ing!
The D.E.N.N.I.S. System at work.
and I hate neither!
If Auburn wins this, I’ll bet $1000 of Hippo’s money that Barkley snorts coke off a hooker’s ass on camera during the post-game.
If Auburn loses this, he’ll do the same, but in front of a different camera.
c’mon, prop bet!!
Hippo has push
This game is Auburn pushes, Viginny adjusts the D, Auburn presses, Virginny adjusts the D. Whomever is dictating play in the last 2 minutes gets the W.
That’s where pink eye comes from.
Okay, we may have reached the point of too much wrestling

Oof! For me that happened back around ’89 or so.
A brave pioneer of ass-to-ass
I said the same thing in 2002.
On tonight’s menu is NJPW’s G1 Supercard at a sold out Madison Square Garden, the first non-WWE show in the history of MSG.
gots me a little #ACTION on Aubie being ahead after 15 minutes
Kyle Guy Mustang Sally’ed that 3 pointer right into the hoop!
/ stands up
“Hi everyone. My name is yeah right.”
[crowd] “Hi yeah right.”
“I’m… I’m a wasabi- holic.”
/ polite applause
I see nothing wrong with that
I’ve watched Santa Clarita Diet since it debuted. I’ve had a thing for Drew Barrymore since I was like, 12, and Timothy Olyphant is fucking awesome in everything.
Season three is great. Absolutely fantastic. It’s nice to see The Waitress in a situation that isn’t terrible, and not because of Charlie.
Timothy Olyphant used to do the sports report for Indie 101 back when it existed and he was still small-time. I think it actually did a lot of good for his career.
It worked for Jimmy Kimmel.
TT vs UVa.
tWBS wins the pool.
Everyone is happy.
OK, maybe not everyone.
Also, Grant Hill looks older than me. Considering I once treated his gf’s kitten and vaccinated it, this makes me happy.
Man, I hope you vaccinated it before you “treated” it. Anyhow, it must have been a treat.
LOL, her kitty was very attractive.
Ah, Kyle Guy. Yours truly got not one but TWO top-notch zingers in on the last deadspin article about that fellow.

If you befriended Kyle Guy in the military, he could be your buddy Chief Guy.
If you marry Kyle Guy, you can call him My Guy.
If you bury Kyle Guy you could be Kyle Guy’s burying guy.
Since tomorrow’s meal promises to be a doozy I’m opting for sushi today. Hamachi nigiri and chicken tepanyaki with gyoza.
Back up, son. That shit is going down!
Taking on a new challenge tomorrow. I’ve got a copy of that Essential Pepin cookbook. As a date idea, I told the newly minted Duchess LaCross that we’re going to pick a main and a couple sides and cook something awesome together for the first time. French is really one of my culinary blindspots. What are the odds I’m still in this relationship by the end of the night?
I’m praying for better weather, I kind of don’t want to get in a trap of everything we do having to involve food.
In my experience, cooking together with a lovely newcomer yields much, much better results than cooking “for” said newcomer. There be tons of reasons why this is the way to go but I won’t go into now it because it reeks of a post.
I can definitely see how cooking for somebody early on can backfire. Especially if you fuck it up. She was studying for a big professional exam a couple weeks ago, so I offered to cook her dinner on my day off. So I spent all day doing smoked spareribs and a few sides with plenty of leftovers to lighten her load for a few days. I managed to nail it, for once, everything came off perfectly with no problems.
I’m way outkicking my coverage with this woman. She’s got a great head on her shoulders, terrific career, smart as hell, goddamn hilarious and a stone cold fox to boot. Pretty much everything I’m not. I’m still trying to figure out what she sees in me. Christ, she asked me out first before I was able to get drunk enough at this party to work up the courage to do it myself. This has been one of the best months I’ve had in over a decade and I don’t want to fuck it up!
I don’t know you at all but I’m rooting for you so hard. Be cool. Don’t try to figure it out. Let it happen-sure seems to be working so far. Don’t press!
Thanks man. it’s amazing the things that can fall in your lap when you kind of stop trying so hard. I know it’s super-early, but I’m smitten. I know it’s the old cliche’ that you find someone that makes you want to be a better person, and this is true here, but this is the first one I’ve found in many years that actually makes me feel good about being myself. For all of my fucked up faults, she still wants to make time with me. It’s unreal.
I’ll be the first one to read that post you write.
I’m cooking a straight up homage to Marcella Hazan tomorrow.
Details to follow a week from tomorrow.
JUST FUCKING BEAUTIFUL!
Our dear Scotchy is quite the wordsmith yes?
