2022 Post-Plague “Madness Can Go Screw” Flacco Eight Thread

I now remember how/why/how much I hate basketball.  But, I have imaginarium obligations, so the games are below.  I have added a picture of Kaylyn Kyle, because (i) she is PERFECT; and (ii) all eyes are on Canadia Lesser Footy this weekend.  The rest is just trash to pass the time.

5S Houston (-2.5) v. 2S Villanova (6:09, TBS)

As I have mentioned previously, I work with a Villanova fan, who really gets on me tits.  He ALWAYS wants to talk on the phone instead of e-mail, and worse, ALWAYS prefers cold calls rather than scheduling same and sometimes not even with any idea what the call is about.  Management school/theory bullshit.  Lawyers suck, please don’t let your chill’uns go to law school like Hippo done.  I enjoy the JV 500s, and they is at least quasi-Southern and fit to represent Ol’ Dixie in the FInal Four.  As such, they have no chance.

4W Arkansas (+4) v. 2W Duke (8:39, TBS)

No value on the moneyline, and the powers-that-be are going to do EVERYTHING in their power to make Duke (and U*NC) happen.  Eat shit and die, Blues.

Just looking for late night sports and I came across a cricket match. I don’t understand anything except India just got eliminated and South Africa is advancing in the cricket World Cup.

How many overs did SA have left?

Here’s a rare glimpse into my studio command center, where important decisions are ordered and decisive orders are issued:

That phone is mad cool!

Brick Meathook

That phone is mad real too, an authentic restored 1920 candlestick with the clickety-clack dial and separate ringer box. And it works perfectly (all my vintage stuff works perfectly – no museum shelf queens in my collection). Using the candlestick to call my iPhone always delighted my nieces and nephews; they loved to dial it and loved the sound it makes.

Gumbygirl

Love it!

Brick Meathook

In the photo you can see a computer, a watch, a wallet, a camera, and a phone

yet the photo was taken with a computer/watch/wallet/camera/phone!

WEIRD

However, the iPhone still can’t hold tea. Fuck you Steve Jobs!

Last night’s sundown cocktail with the new neighbors ended up going until 11 p.m., so I’m wiped. Gonna make it an early night and do some reading.

Joined. Its it bad that I’ve only seen the Disney entry from the whole list and that just happened to be this afternoon?

Gumbygirl

Haven’t seen any of them, but I haz opinions!

Brick Meathook

I think it’s almost time to start thinking about possibly planning a DFO L.A.pajama party, fueled by alcohol, cocaine, prescription pain killers, blood pressure medication, and fresh-squeezed fruit juices.

tWBS would want it that way.

First person to fall for a cocktail waitress and give her/him all your money WINS!

That’s awesome!

Shit man, even if I lost a huge bet I’m not wearing a “Hogs Smell Good” T-shirt. Show some damn dignity!

Howdy folks. From scrolling down it seems slow tonight but I’m very drunk and enjoying women’s world championship curling. Litre is apparently on a tour of little ethnicity neighbourhoods and restaurants with edibles. He’s probably snorting Macedonian cheese dust off a squat toilet right now.
I have no point to this I see now. Good evening. I’m sorry for wasting your time.

BC Dick

Do you not get women’s curling tournaments from Prince George? Shocking. Canada (Einarson rink with the gorgeous and talented Shannon Birchard) is down 2-0 to Korea in the 3rd end, though they do have the hammer.
There’s a crisis (for us) in Canadian curling about no longer whooping every other country in curling. Most other teams have Canadian coaches and one primary team that plays in world competitions. We should be beating all comers but it’s not happening. Like the US team losing in basketball.

The fact that a restaurant called “chicken and whiskey” did NOT exist when I last lived in this neighborhood and that I will soon be residing far from this neighborhood is further proof that the Lord loves irony and is a dick.

Brick Meathook

What neighborhood?

BC Dick

If they serve anything else is it false advertising? I should buy a bar and call it “Liquor and beer”. Or “Liquor and beer and music you’ll hate”.

“Warm Beer & Lousy Food”
A Fine Dining Establishment

yeah right

This band should be much bigger than they currently are.

Love this band.

Yeah that’s good. I like it. Not the name. I would’ve gone with just “group”. No one asked me, though.

I have regrets putting the sheets in the washer because now I just want to go to sleep early but have to wait.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Mine is guilt

yeah right

You don’t look it.

This is why God (or Yahweh) invented the couch.

I’ve slept on a bare mattress and naked pillows for weeks at a time. Oh, yes. I am single.

Gumbygirl

Clean sheets are worth the wait!

TheRevanchist

These games need announcers WWE style. One obviously biased color commentator who roots for teams like Duke in basketball or Alabama in football or Tom Brady or the US mens soccer team. Think of how much more entertaining that would be.

WCS

Dick Vitale, any ESPN color commentator on Saturdays in the fall, Cris Collinsworth, and (insert some soccer guy here) don’t count as exactly that?

TheRevanchist

Not biased enough. I need Jerry Lawler rooting for Triple H using the sledgehammer on Scottie2Hottie after Hunter already won the match.

herodotus450

Watch any hockey or basedball regional broadcast.

WCS

See: Edwards, Jack

yeah right

A busy and very productive day. Got a real nice pinot noir working and it’s straight ass chill 30.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

That’s way too cold to keep a red

yeah right

This shit is delicious. It’s Frei Brothers from the Russian River Valley.
I could get used to this.

S Dakota-Michigan game is fucking fun!

Houston missed like nine straight three pointers at the end of the game.

Aw, he’s crying.

I’m about to be in the shower.

If Villanova wins I’m probably done for in the insanity bracket.

Mr. Ayo

If there’s one thing to learn from this site, it’s that Houston likes to go down. Repeatedly.

WCS

Hundreds of times!
