Round of 32 Day 1

It seems longer than it is.  Only 8 games today and 8 tomorrow.  I mentioned yesterday that we’ll be losing one of our Cinderellas today for sure.  Of course one will advance for sure too.

Yesterday afternoon we added Florida State and last night another 3 (though a 9 over an 8 hardly counts), but the ones I was most rooting for, Long Island and Boston University, didn’t come through.  At least the announcers made a pretense of rooting for Long Island.  The Kansas shills on TBS celebrated their bias with a shamelessness that would make the Yankees blush.

Fuck you assholes!  I hope Kansas goes down in flames as soon as possible.  The more humiliating the defeat the better.

  2. I guess I have a minor rooting interest in this one.  Kentucky is arrogant, the favorite of the broadcasters, and not from the Big East whom the studio announcers think a pack of talentless hustlers.

    Fuck Kentucky!  Go Mountaineers!

  14. And we’re bombing Tripoli.

    Yay us.

  17. That’s never good.

    69 – 63 Florida 32.8 to play.

  32. 37 – 30 16:00 to play.
