QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 15, 2009 -> 05:37 PM) Michigan is rightfully in. Gaels should be in over Wildcats. Two losses to Wisconsin, one to Penn State, they lost to Iowa, and barely beat Savannah freakin State. Yes, they beat Duke and UCLA early in the season, but they finished 9-9 in the Big Ten.

Ugh, Michigan/Wisconsin/Arizona over St. Mary's?

East Regional
Wisconsin? Wow.

West Regional
Not a very competitive bracket here, not with Marquette without James. I can see Maryland giving people fits.

Midwest Regional
QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 15, 2009 -> 05:05 PM) Arizona? That is a f***ing joke. I like that match up vs Utah for them a lot.

Soccer is ruining America
I stopped reading after the which other sport is more boring line. What a tool. Yeah, blame the greatest, and most popular sport in the world for your children being overweight pussies. How f***ed up is his daughter going to be one day. "Yeah, my dad read books on the sideline when I played soccer as a kid." f*** that guy.

What's Alexei's 'real' experience as a shortstop?
QUOTE (daa84 @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 05:16 PM) range at 2b and range at SS aren't much different, and making the switch to SS, his "natural" position likely won't help his range any I disagree. SS is, IMO, the hardest position in baseball. It's a totally different look from SS than it is 2B.

What you have to do before you sleep?
Take a leak, brush my teeth, set the alarm, put the phone and laptop in the charger, turn the computer off, get any books ready for the next day's class.

Is Beckham the new 2B?
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 02:57 AM) I agree, except I'd rather have the much more dynamic hitter in Ramirez in the 2 hole and put Getz at the bottom of the order instead. Alexei's .317 OBP isn't exactly ideal in the 2 hole.

Official 2008-2009 NBA Thread
QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 12:33 AM) It was and wasn't. Basically Rose was supposed to handle the rock and take it to the rack hoping someone would collapse, then dishing off to the open guy. They couldn't get the ball into Rose, so Salmons took the ball. Now the plan also stated, if it's a broken play, take advantage and try to get Ben the ball. Thing is, Salmons had a mismatch. Haslem who can't keep up with John was on him at the top of the key. The only mistake on that play was that Salmons went way too early. He should've went with 3 seconds. How did you manage to get into the huddle to hear that?

Films Thread
Reviews like THIS make Rotten Tomatoes lose a lot of credibility. And one more thing on movie reviews. Please, shut the f*** up about leaving the theater in the middle of the movie. It doesn't make you look cool, or like a badass. To the contrary, it makes you look like a douche, and a moron. Pay money for your tickets (and probably food/drinks), only to leave without seeing the entire body of work all while pissing off the people in the theater who are actually paying attention and give a s***? That's smart. I hope you walked out of the theater right in front of a speeding train. /rant

ST 3/7: White Sox vs. Rangers
QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 7, 2009 -> 05:25 PM) Derek Jeter, Troy Tulowitzki, Jimmy Rollins, Jose Reyes, Hanley Ramirez and J.J. Hardy all played their first full season in the big leagues as 22 year olds . . . I may have missed something, but what does that have to do with anything?
