hate that SMC took Samhan out
that is the one thing HCBS does that pisses me off like no other. You don’t need to take a guy out when he gets 2 fouls

St Mary's looking really good right now.
Glad I came, just wish I hadn't stayed so long.
People ask me what I do in winter when there’s no baseball. I’ll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.
Villanova has looked more like a 10 seed this tournament
It's not that I'm lazy; it's that I just don't care.
Does Villanova even play off the ball defense or help defense?
It's not that I'm lazy; it's that I just don't care.
No, but they foul a lot. That works, right?

Good games today
Very curious to see Ohio’s second round game. During their first game I kept thinking they were about to fall off their play and become the mediocre team they should be, but it just kept on going.
Take out KU and I have still loved the Thurs/Sat matchups much more than the opposite
It's not that I'm lazy; it's that I just don't care.
Even looking forward to seeing murray st. butler
It's not that I'm lazy; it's that I just don't care.
I wish they had started one of the thress 4:30ish games shortly after the current one.
Hate not having anything to watch at halftime

yeah, doesn't make sense to me

Tomorrow is even worse.
1 game at 11:10
4 between 1:20 and 1:50
3 between 3:50 and 4:15

They have to have time to introduce us to the freshman of Kentucky
I guess.

During Kentucky's season games
I noticed they had a little “John Wall” intro they’d use when they were going to show a replay with him (which were almost always not very spectacular). No one else gets those, that I’ve seen.
Then re-watching the 2008 NC game, I noticed they had the same thing going for Rose. Sheesh.
I'd rather watch ksu v byu than god's gift to us all, wall.
It's not that I'm lazy; it's that I just don't care.
What does everyone think of Saint Mary’s? I have a couple of friends who go to school there. Also how about that victory for Cal last night?

I’m impressed.

Better taking it to the hoop than I thought. Good at the 3. Villanova is overrated and a little overmatched
It's not that I'm lazy; it's that I just don't care.
Should be a great second half here regardless of the outcome.
St Mary’s stays hot and upsets a 2 seed that a lot of people thought were overseeded or Nova makes a great comeback to win the game.
When I don’t care one way or the other, that’s a win-win for me.

Crazy possession for Nova
try to throw it out of bounds and the ball luckily hits the ref, bounces around and they get an open 3 out of the whole thing.

Seems like St.Mary's has dominated

Son of a bitch.
I wake up, turn on the TV, St. Mary’s is up by 8, they miss every shot from then on and Nova does this shit. I was gonna say I told you so on the St. Mary’s over Nova thing, but never mind.

This would be a really great start to recovery today if you guys made me look all smart again.

This upset would REALLY drop
KGRtC in the Bracket pool. He’s leading right now, but has Nova in the Elite 8.

St. Mary's in this second half
is looking pretty beatable. They look like they’re on the edge of falling apart. Fortunately, Villanova kinda sucks.
They're another 10 points in the WBC, should they hold on.

That samhan is pretty damn solid.

OSU has skated by all year on the fact that their conference has no good big men;
once they’re faced with twin morri and cole aldrich, they’ll be put out of their misery
OT I've been following the Basketball Prospectus guys
and while they’re knowledgeable and all, the more I read their twitter feeds and so forth, the more kind of arrogant and smug they seem. Maybe it’s just me.
I fined a lot of the “stats” guys to be arrogant and smug. Doesn’t matter which sport. Baseball, football, Basketball, you name it.
Randy Hahn: "I’ve been referred to as a playa…"
I like stats
It’s probably one of them said something bad about KU once and it has been subconsciously annoying me. I’m a bit too much of a homer, I guess.
I think they're pretty funny personally.
read the chats they did the past couple days. Good stuff.
Also, one of them tweeted Warden today, so expect him to yell at you :)

I can see what he’s saying. I just think that to be that far into it the stats, you’ve got to be really, really invested in it.

Or Ohio-Tennessee. Both of these games are putting me to sleep.
