#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness – Sweet Sixteen Back End (PHRASING)

King Hippo - March 28, 2021March 28, 2021

God, look at my mind, ass over elbows into the gutter. Yesterday provided three really compelling fixtures, and then an assault on one's senses. 75% is a fantastic success rate, unless you are an airline pilot or some shit. 5W Creighton (+13.5) v. 1W Gonzaga (2:10, CBS) HAWT Jesuit on Jesuit action!

#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness – Sweet Sixteen Nighttime Fun

King Hippo - March 27, 2021March 27, 2021

Thoughts and prayers to Scotchy, trying hard to delay his nightly passing out. Boeheim needs him! 15S Oral Totes Counts (+11) v. 3S Arkansas (7:25, TBS) One assumes the Oral admissions office is working overtime. Speaking of thoughts and prayers! I am expecting a very entertaining shootout here. 11MW Sillycuse (+6.5) v. 2MW Houston

#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness – Sweet Sixteen (no Chmura smh) Time!

King Hippo - March 27, 2021March 26, 2021

Our calendars and body clocks are off, I know. Shit, I believe I had an afternoon nap every day this workweek. Scion of the law-talkin-guy profession, me. Thus, the Round of 16 is two days late. But this is one of the bestest gifts #NuAIDS done gave us...because the round is

Alright, y'all. 5 hours or so of hoopsball loveliness left, before we go back to pondering all of our less-than-stellar life choices. 8E LSU (+5) v. 1E Michigan (7:10, CBS) This would make for a fine game of FITBAW, at least before Harbs the Lesser turned the Wolverines program in a hollowed-out

#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness – Last Day of Gluttony

King Hippo - March 22, 2021March 22, 2021

I miss the daily orgy of hoopsball already, don't you? 7W Oregon (+5) v. 2W Iowa (12:10, CBS) Talk about wildly over/under-performing expectations. The Pac-12 has been on fire, whilst the B1G has been a dumpster fire. This is a pretty tough ask of Quack Attack, though. 8W Oklahoma (+14) v. 1W Gonzaga

#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness Round of 32 S’more (and Nightly Open Thread)

King Hippo - March 21, 2021March 21, 2021

I hope y'all ain't sick of hoopsball, because it's time to flex those remote control fingers... 10MW Rutgers (+7.5) v. 2MW Houston (7:10, TBS) Yes, the B1G has kind of taken it on the chin so far. But can that prototypical midwestern-solid Rutgers side take out the JV 500s? Es posible. 15S Oral

Since I was already gonna do my silly preview tidbits, it made sense for IPA Robby to take the night off. Feel free to discuss items other than basketball, as long as it isn't a graphic description of your hemorrhoids and/or social disease(s). 15W Grand Canyon (+13.5) v. 2W Iowa (6:25,

#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness – Round of 64 Thread the Thirdest (with tad of Lesser Footy)

King Hippo - March 20, 2021March 19, 2021

Well, uh, yesterday sure was fun. Can we DUE EVEN BETTER 2DAY?? Your Premier League morning starts at...4 fucking pm? And consists solely of Trashbirds and Barcodes? Yeah, I will stick to hardwood fun, thanks. It's on Peacock Premium, for some unfathomable reason. Hammers/Gooners tomorrow (11:00, Peacock) could be tasty, though. No,

#NuAIDS Time-Delayed Madness – Round of 64 Thread The Second

King Hippo - March 19, 2021March 19, 2021

You want afternoon and evening fixtures? Motherfucker, you've got 'em! 13MW Liberty (+7) v. 4MW Oklahoma State (6:25, TBS) Fundamentalist Flamers going up against BDSM State. Oh, some taboos is getting broken. 9S Wisconsin (+1.5) v. 8S U*NC (7:10, CBS) Seriously, rooting for these Cheesehead assdicks is going to hurt my soul. But as

These games would ordinarily be Thursday-Friday, but they apparently needed an extra day to Lysol down Greater Indianapolis. I get it. Plus, I had too much work bullshit yesterday, so it all worked out fine. THANKS, Diamond Joe! 10S Virginia Tech (pick 'em) v. 7S Florida (12:15, CBS) I want to say

Better Noe A #NuAIDS Bracket

King Hippo - March 18, 2021March 18, 2021

Uh...I have neither the energy nor the wherewithal to draft four separate previews this year. But luckily, there is only the Indianapolis Region to cover WOO!!!! I did enter Yeah Right's challenge, and encourage the entire Clubhouse to do the same. I mean, I've maybe seen 2-3 hours of hoopsball

European Battles Rage On

Yes, that's beloved Everton sitting pretty in 5th position. Of the realistically plausible 2020-21 season outcomes - 5th (with the Shite 8th or lower) would be just about perfect. I am a bit leery regarding Everton's ability to meaningfully compete in Full-on Shempions (FOAR now), but Europa? Shit, even Mourinho's
