Well, it's here......the second best day in sports, the first day of the NCAA tournament. Let's talk Cards, Cats, Muskies, and Buckeyes!
Who is your upset pick? I'm taking Old Dominion and St. Mary's today, and would appreciate it if they would come through for me. Another question I have is why is there a 75 word minimum on diaries? It's not like I'm going to say anything important or insightful as it is, making me BS for the sake of length just seems unfair to the poor saps who have to read it. If you haven't stopped reading by now, congratulations. I owe you one Hershey's Kiss.

a lot of has to do with not having that ridiculously good class of players he had

since they’ve been gone, he’s had 2 NIT trips and a 10 seed.

Weird play call for Nova at the end
0.9 secs, they fail at an inbounds alley-oop. I’d rather have a clean catch and shoot. Game’s going into OT.
Would have been good
but a great defensive play by Robert morris stopped it.

shit… i totally banked with nat city.
Running out to frontyard laughing! -Fat Vegas Alan
im on a goodwill mission
nat city was very wobbly the last year of its existence. no reputable bank wanted to acquire it, PNC received a large payout to merge. I hope that you/others here in town weren’t/aren’t affected. The “inside job” comment would cause me some concern.
"the only place they lost was the scoreboard"
seems like mostly cinci accounts were affected.
i’m a dayton boy. they also make it sound like it was Nat City’s fault but they have been owned by PNC for well over a year.
Running out to frontyard laughing! -Fat Vegas Alan
PNC is a solid bank
but they migh sell off the former Nat City Dayton branches (like they did 10-15 years ago after the Central Trust purchase).
They currently have the ugliest debit cards in history. Basically, PNC is a bank for ugly, tacky people.

It's not you, it's bandwagon jumpers
OU beat Georgetown, great, good for the Bobcats
But let’s not make this like you had something to do with it, or you should be allowed to fully enjoy it b/c your gf went there. Great, I bet she loves crappy pizza, riots during the Daylight Savings change, and is one of 30,000 people at one of the worst Halloween events.
This would be the same if all of a sudden come playoff time I was a Yankees fan b/c their my wife’s team. I don’t jump on their bandwagon, so don’t go jumpin’ on OU’s bandwagon.
And another thing, she’s your gf. Your gf. Not your fiancee. Not your wife. Your gf! We’re talkin’ about a gf. Not a wife. Not a wife. Not a wife. We’re talkin’ about a gf, man. (in my best Allen Iverson)

b/c they definitely overturned and burned cars between 12th and 15th, east of High St, and I definitely saw my fair share of roasted couch/loveseat between 2001-2004.

Indian Hill’s Halloween Festival @ the Elementary School
I also went to a really bad Halloween party in Cheviot in 2004, does that count?

anyone who goes to a Halloween party in Cheviot
AND likes MABaG is no longer allowed to vote on “Worst Events”.
OU had a great halloween, most romantic “slutty” night of the year.

The alcohol was free in Cheviot
However, the ambiance left plenty to be desired…
The best part of OU and Athens is that it’s not Columbus

Where's obc??
The Bobcats are kicking ass!!
We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come here.
was at a bar watching the game
jch floated 19.5 pts to the Bobcats. Life was good.
"the only place they lost was the scoreboard"
Nice.
Who’d you pick in this Texas game?
I’ve watched Texas play quite a bit this season (seems like they were on ESPN every Monday) and they havesuuuuucked at times but I think they’re better than an 8 seed.

Didja pick Butler?
I went to college with Brad Stevens. Ask him if he remembers me. (He won’t.)

I've got Butler losing to eventual national champion Syracuse in the Sweet 16.
And I’ve got Wake over Texas, but it was basically a toss-up for me.
So does that mean you're gonna say hi to Stevens for me?

i think cuse will be the first one seed to lose
onuaku is out until the regionals, if not the rest of the tournament. Plus the Big East seems to have been exposed. I think the Vermont game will be pretty close, although it’s hard to imagine a team that lost by 42 to Providence will turn around and beat Syracuse.
Alway the optimist...I like your think kid...
Whoa, why ya gotta hate on a team that's now only 6 deep?
All season Syracuse regularly only played 7 guys. Now with Onuaku out, we’re gonna see 5 with 1 coming off the bench, since I’m convinced the other 5 guys just travel to carry luggage and what not.
Syracuse won’t lose to Vermont, but it’s very possible they’re a one and done team….

Wow.
Lehigh led by eight. Then Kansas led by eleven.
CBS finally switches over to it and we see an awesome reverse layup (no D) and some furious up and down action and then… halftime.
Boo.

CBS is putting MMA on Saturday nights.
Red Reporter game thread, anyone?
"You know it's gonna be a good one when you see Fred Quimby's name at the beginning."
by Fat Vegas Alan on Mar 18, 2010 10:54 PM EDT reply actions
CBS has actually already aired 4 or 5 Saturday Night MMA events
unfortunately, they do a poor job promoting it. the current commercials don’t even mention that it’s an MMA event. they just show a picture of Jake Shields and Dan Henderson with no mention of who the guys are or why anyone would care.
that’s really sad, because that CBS card may be the strongest MMA card that will be put together this year. The main event should be very good, and the undercard features 2 title fights, and bobby lashley.
i like to see Lashley vs The Undertaker
I think you once told me the ’Taker is the best striker in history.
"the only place they lost was the scoreboard"

"the only place they lost was the scoreboard"
I have to think their promotions are done that way intentionally.
And I have to admit that the ad I saw created in me a moment when I was thinking that maybe I might like to see what that’s all about. Much more so than if the ad had been done with either the cliche “Sunday” technique or by presenting the ugly homoerotic bloodlustiness of it all.

Dana White had some interesting things to say about the commercial:
“Dan Henderson is fighting [expletive] Jake Shields. Come on. Are you serious? Jake Shields is 170 pounds, and he’s their (185-pound) champion. And I just found out today that they’re running commercials on [CBS], and the commercials are like three seconds, and it basically says, ‘MMA legend Dan Henderson,’ and he hits a heavy bag, I guess, and looks back at the camera. That’s the [expletive] commercial. How about, ‘Jake Shields is our [expletive] champion’?”

So, it’s gonna be on TV.
He also went to Virgil’s Cafe and Blue Ash Chili.

Dear patrons of TTC, Virgil's, and Blue Ash,
I’m very disappointed in your stabbing reflexes. Please sharpen (hee hee) them.

Who goes to Blue Ash Chili over Camp Washington, Price Hill, and Pleasant Ridge?
Douchenozzle. I’m shocked he didn’t go to Quatmans and MAB&G.
"aaron harnann is so aweseom" - justin
Stop all the MAB&G hatred!
Learn to order a burger, none of this olive nonsense!
And no one goes to Blue Ash Chili for the chili. You go there for the ridiculously large sandwiches.
If you want chili, then Camp Washington, Price Hill, or Skyline.

MAB&G was bottom shelf

TTC is too new to be any of the Triple Ds
It’s not a diner, it’s not a drive in, and it’s too new and too forced to be a dive. I mean it wants to be a dive, but it’s just not (yet).
by Highlifeman21 on Mar 19, 2010 12:44 PM EDT up reply actions
Still doesn't jive with me
Just b/c your establishment is in a dive doesn’t mean you’re automatically a dive. Your establishment needs to evolve into a dive.

I can definately see him flirting with Oregon
But Auburn is opening a new arena, and the SEC west is ripe for the taking. I think it has about a 5% chance of happening, but it would be interesting.

Tied at the half=Advantage Tigers
Teams always start to wear down against the 40 minutes of hell during the last 10 or so minutes of the game. As long as it’s close by that point, Mizzou has a pretty good shot. I just saw the last minute or so- was running home to get cleaned up- what’d I miss?
"People don't kill people. Burning oreo packages kill people."
We play exciting basketball if nothing else.

This is stressing me out.
