QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Mar 20, 2011 -> 01:28 PM) Texas Tech is set to hire Billy Gillispie. I'm very excited. He has done a tremendous job in Texas coaching. Texas can have him. Kentucky is glad he's gone.

The guy had a strange speech impediment in the every time tried to use the 'f' sound it came out sounding like a 'p'. Being shorthanded, the door to door vacuum sales company hired him anyway. But their product was inferior to the competition and it was well known. The new knocked on his first door and woman of the house told him a competing company was already ther. He glanced inside and the product. He thought to himself, "I can't compete with a Kirby. Puckett I'll go elsewhere. I know. I'll stop now.

QUOTE (Rooftop Shots @ Mar 19, 2011 -> 07:26 AM) Mr Clean wanted to go to the store with a male friend and also with his girlfriend named Ezmerelda. A bystander was adamant about making sure that Mr. Clean did not go, but instead that ge stayed at home. So he yelled out in a rage... Hey!.....Stay here Ubaldo! Jimenez-merelda are going alone! Prediction: Pierzynski attends the Elite Eight matchup to watch his beloved Gators. Bummer as Florida gets beat. Before the winning team can cut 'em down A. J. Burnetts.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 17, 2011 -> 10:08 AM) I'm going out on a limb with Princeton over Kentucky as my upset. If they can play an Ivy League tempo and frustrate the Cats, you could see the big win. When I first saw the matchup, I started telling people around here that UK could be in trouble with that senior laden Princeton team. They dodged the bullet, but just barely.

Went to a strip club with a buddy and there was one lady whose outstanding assets caught his eye. He eventually had to have a lap dance from her. So while I was watching this, I could see the those assets were drawing his focus. I, forgetting the no touch rule encouraged him with "Go ahead Jim, Palmer."

Prediction Thread
QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 13, 2011 -> 11:09 PM) For some reason, the left side of the bracket seems WAY harder than the right. Ohio State got the toughest draw, but surprisingly no easy stroll for Duke either. Seems like Pittsburgh and Kansas made out the best here, so I have them in the Final Four with Kansas winning it all. Kentucky over UNC in the elite 8, Kentucky over San Diego State in the Final Four, then losing to Kansas in the final. I worry I'll regret not taking UNC and UConn to win their regions. Don't like Duke or Ohio State much at all in either case. I have three 11's winning in the first round (only 6 I took was Georgetown, who I also have beating Purdue). Also took two 13's in Belmont and Oakland. Other than that and two of my Final Four teams, I have a lot of chalk. Kansas has an easy stroll to the elite 8 (although I'm admittedly down on Louisville). Pittsburgh seems to have an easy entire region. I could seriously see the Butler/ODU winner in the Final Four if they upset Pittsburgh for instance. If BYU had got this region with Davies, they'd be my Final Four pick for sure. Although heck, they may have a shot now in that region. I'm pretty sure San Diego State has never won a tournament game too. May live to especially regret that pick. I like your picks on the 13 seeds. I don't think anybody wanted to be matched up against those teams. Kentucky to the final game? I question that one because of a lack of depth. At some point foul trouble will catch up with them. I'm not a college hoops junkie by any means, so take that into consideration. I'm more of a fan that roots for the laundry.
