Rowand44

I've been real good at keeping college Rowand caged up for a while now but last night he made an appearance. Drink all day by myself, hit on a girl with a boyfriend, almost get into a fight with said boyfriend, go to bed at 5 when I had to be up at 7 for work, go into work still tipsy. Today/tonight will be worse...

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 17, 2012 -> 10:59 AM) I went Baylor. This pool is tough, can't repeat teams so you can't use all the guns up front. Yup, I was in one as well and boom went Mizzou...

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 17, 2012 -> 11:01 AM) I'm working all morning/day as well. Fun. I'm off at 2 and ill be in the city all day so if you and the wifey want to meet up for a beer at some point let me know.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Mar 17, 2012 -> 09:19 AM) Anyone on Fitocracy? I'm trying to drop 15 pounds for an event at the end of next month. I've stopped any progress I've made in the last couple years, and have been watching my weight drift back up - so I'm trying to get back on that horse. Good luck! It really is as simple as maitaining a good diet and exercising. Let us know if you need any advice, this place actually helped me a lot in conquering my fatness.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 16, 2012 -> 11:08 PM) Survivor pick tomorrow...Baylor or osu thinking baylor Not that my opinion means a damn thing but I'd go Baylor. Gonzaga has enough skill to at least hang with OSU...

Ugh someone wanna call me out of work so I can go drink? Stupid switching to get Thursday and Friday off so I can watch basketball...

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 16, 2012 -> 06:15 PM) Also, Hampton and Norfolk State are BOTH MEAC teams. Weird. In the last 15 years of NCAA play, 2 upsets out of 60 possible happened between the 2 and 15 seeds, and both of them MEAC schools involved. MEAC vs. Big 12...

Norfolk shot out of their mind, obviously Mizzou would beat them 9 out of 10 times but the reason that upset was able to happen is because there was no athletic or size(Norfolk had the big size edge) mismatch that a 1 or 2 seed usually holds against a 15 or 16. That was so much fun though, how about LIU over MSU tonight?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 16, 2012 -> 04:17 PM) What mean you? Taking 2's with 3 seconds left when you're down 3, not very intelligent...

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 16, 2012 -> 01:51 PM) Throw in the pathetic showing from the MWC so far and the opposite of what you said is happening this year. No chaos, the only upsets are to MWC teams and Creighton is losing to make the MVC look awful as well. Good year mid-majors! Yup, in my defense, I didn't have too many lower seeds going to far once I saw the bracket(a lot of the mids I really liked got knocked out before they had a shot) but ya, definitely correct to call me out on that one. Do I at least get a half a point, for saying that I thought a 1 or 2 would lose today?

QUOTE (Tex @ Mar 15, 2012 -> 04:32 PM) When I was working for the Boy Scouts of America we could not, and would not even consider, accepting donations from companies that promoted products that would be harmful to people, especially kids. It was usually beer companies that had logo stuff they would offer to us. (I'm not saying strip bars are harmful to kids) McDonalds?

Anyone else really intrigued by the 1-16's and 2-15's today? Detroit, LIU, Vermont and Lehigh are all better than their seeds. I'm actually insanely interested in the MSU-LIU game, I think that game is going to be extremely close...

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 03:02 PM) vs First time I get to see those. Cena f***in awesome. The Rock's was actually solid until the sing along at the end...what the f*** was that?

Wanted to say congrats to the IU and ISU fans. I've bashed your teams all year long and they both came out and kicked some ass...

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 16, 2012 -> 06:59 AM) f***. FAIL. I can't believe I bought into the Mountain West hype. OVER-RATED! And New Mexico beat a very good LBSU team, not overrated, UNLV just played awful.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 15, 2012 -> 08:35 PM) Fathom, VCU beat a mid-major today. What exactly did Shaka do? He ran full court press? So did the Shockers. I didnt see any intriguing offensive sets, defense wanst anything new/unusual/spectacular. I dont know, if Im Illinois Id prefer Buzz Williams (Marquette) to Shaka. First hes run a much bigger program, second hes gotten them a top 5 seed, third hes shown he can take over a team who loses a coach. Shaka is just way more unknown. Maybe if they play Indiana next game, Ill see something drastic. But if he gets out coached by Tom Crean, I wouldnt hire him. Laughs out loud.

I'm literally like a little kid at christmas. Too damn excited to sleep...

Wet socks is my champion.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 14, 2012 -> 04:54 PM) Maybe Vermont can dust off TJ Sorrentine for old times sake. Who didn't love the Sorrentine-Coppenwrath combo? Loved those guys...

Kenny smash!

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 12, 2012 -> 02:53 PM) On the other hand, I'd say UNLV and SDSU are over-seeded. Hard to say that imo. SDSU won the 4th best conference in the country and had 2 solid ooc wins while Vegas had their MWC wins and had wins over Cal and UNC ooc...

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 12, 2012 -> 01:00 PM) I'm guessing they thought that Creighton didn't have a whole lot of big time wins. @sdsu, @wichita and lbsu aren't big time enough? I don't have much of a beef with the job the committee did but Creighton and Murray's seedds were odd to me.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 12, 2012 -> 01:57 AM) They kept saying it on ESPN...? This. I drive through St. Louis on the 23rd on my way back home. Wanted that so bad. First 30 win team from a bcs conference...

I have an unusually tame 1st round... Iona over Marquette NMSU over IU And then the only other 2 "upsets" I have in the 1st round not counting 8-9's are Xavier over ND and Cal over Temple. My bracket starts to get fun in the 2nd round though starting with: Gangstas over Duke Memphis over MSU UNLV over Baylor Cal over Michigan
