Around SBN: 2012 Africa Cup Of Nations Final

NCAA Hoops Sunday Thread

First and foremost, snohio is leading the RR Brackets.  How is this possible?  Rankings

This has been an amazing Tourney, so far. Buh bye, Kansas....enjoy the plane ride home! The top two interest games, for me, today are Pitt/Xavier and Wisconsin/Cornell.   Just a few weeks ago Wisconsin and Pitt were my sleeper Final Four teams and I'm not sure either is getting out of the 2nd round today and that's one of the reasons i love March Madness.  

Except for UT, they sucketh ass.  I'd very much like to see OSU roll today and spank that ass next weekend.  Go Buckeyes! (hack, cough)

I did all right- It's all about maximizing the amount of food per point.

You get 20 points (worth 2 meals)- so I got chocolate shake, 2 things of chicken strips (best thing at the dining halls), chocolate milk, fruit roll-up, cookie dough.

I’ll probably miss the second half with food poisoning again.

I'll give you the potato salad/coleslaw that's been sitting out on the salad bad for half the afternoon

Since that’s basically raw eggs, as well.

But most of the other stuff is cooked – which, as the cavemen found out, made a huge difference. If you boil the hell out of something, it may taste gross, but it’s pretty safe.

basically

the Fed made all the top 19 banks in the country take TARP money. Some needed it desperately to stay solvent and some didnt need it at all (but why would one turn down an interest free loan?). It was mandated that all had to take it to keep the public’s confidence in the banks that were wobbly, and to prevent a run on them. (HINT: you banked with one of the wobbliest in the country, son)

Another fight is whom got to payback the TARP first. That, too, was mandated so as to not show which banks were healthiest back in the day.

I guess I don't get the whole "there might be a run" ideal

It was obvious that a large number of banks were fuckered and the feds would have to keep them afloat.

Especially now, who gives a shit? The general public probably just thinks that all banks were wobbly.

This year, he had some problems.

But it’s tough for me to say he’s not a good coach when he’s in the HoF… that to me signifies that his peers recognize his abilities.

and his team committed lots of charges and bone-headed turnovers. aaaaaaand he’s got a goon who can’t play basketball starting. aaaaaaand the goon does shit like not shaking hands before the game and smacking guys in the face just to try to draw a technical foul, even when he’s down 30 points. aaaaaaaand yet the good continues to play

i grew up a uc fan also

starting in the Jelly Jones/Puffy Kennedy days…but i never hated X.

if anything the rivals were Memphis St and Louisville back in the day. The Crosstown Shootout is one of the best rivalries in college hoops and its better for the fact both sides can win most any year.

I'm guessing (actually, I'm not. I know) that you're a bit older than me.

One of the guys I grew up with was a supremely obnoxious X fan. He drove me to hating them also. I don’t like Louisville or Memphis either, due to the Conference USA days when it was a dogfight between those three teams. I do love the Crosstown Shootout for that reason; any given year, it’s anybody’s game.

For what it’s worth, I also wish they’d bring back the Gem City Jam. Wright State and Dayton are both doing well again, and fairly even on a talent level.
