Tobacco Road is paved with good intentions…

…and cheap hookers. After a rough second round, I thought a good run into the Final Four and nailing the champion would give me a shot at winning the office pool. Ohio State…check UCLA…check Florida…a cute frizzy-haired ponytail and bad teeth check UNC… GFY. I don’t know the last time (if ever) I was in [...]

Rollin’ Along…

Congrats to the BG women’s hoops team, who advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 last night! They were up 13 at the half, and though it got tight late, they never broke and held on for the win. They’re the first MAC women’s team to reach the Sweet 16, and are playing so well that [...]

Sign of the year

Ranking right up with the “GO FOOTBALL!” sign at the College Gameday in BG in ’03 (along with many others that have graced the Gameday set through the years), someone in the VCU section at their game against Duke right now has a sign that says “Beat The Refs!” Awesome. VCU down 4 with 7 [...]

If CBS falls in the woods…

After missing a night of apparently Huskie-loving outstanding basketball last night, I settled in to watch the two games tonight. I’ll give ya the LSU-Texas game as apparently exciting (until OT), but I was working through that one. I got to settle in a bit for UCLA-Memphis, and I wish I’d have had a colonoscopy [...]

WAAAAAH!

Two player of the year candidates. Two losses. Two sets of waterworks. Why did I find myself feeling almost bad for Adam Morrison when he started bawling, where just hours earlier, I sat alone on my couch taunting JJ Redick through my TV as he sniffled his way back to the bench? Obviously, Duke’s a [...]

ACC-ya later tater!

Once again, the “pick the teams you hate” theory works in the NCAA tournament. I just lost one of my finalists when Duke went down (like the prom queen JJ Redick is), but I’m cool with it. I’d guess that 85-plus percent of people in the office pool (which I lead coming into the night) [...]

My diagnosis? Bad babysitting!

College affiliations aside, how can you not root for a team led by a guy named Hibbert? If there’s one thing this year’s tournament will be remembered for other than some surprises in the Sweet 16 (and Billy Packer, in turn, getting the Shocker), it has to be some of the great names in the [...]
