Random Thoughts...

...You know you're in a small town when the gas station has a gun store attached. To let you know you're in a shitty small town there has to be a man standing outside the closed gun store, three pick up trucks getting gas and all of them have ATV's in the pickup bed. Yep, welcome to my drive back to school after spring break. (The Kicker)

...Texas Longhorn cheerleaders are hot. Especially when you compare them to the lackluster Minnesota Gopher cheerleaders. That is like a 1 seed vs 16 seed; and, as we all know, a 16 seed never beats a 1 seed. (Juice)

How awesome is it that President Obama filled out an NCAA bracket? Not only did he fill it out, he seems to understand basic things, like an 11 will beat a 6 and that some very good teams have key injuries. A lot can be told about how a person fills out their NCAA brackets and knowing that our president is knowledgeable and has clearly filled out many before this makes me feel good inside. (The Kicker)

...I disagree. President Obama is a pansy. He picked two "real" upsets, one of which was VCU over UCLA. Everyone is picking VCU over UCLA. Man up Mr. Commander in Chief. (Juice)

...He also went 8 for 8 on Saturday...just saying. (The Kicker)

...He also has a bracket that couldn't win anything because he was too much of a pussy to pick some upsets. (Juice)

...One of the most annoying things about college basketball is when the announcers call a "heat check" when a guy takes a bad shot the next time down after making one. So what if you made a 3? You don't need to pull up from 5 feet behind the line and chuck another one. You're not on fire, as we discussed in other posts on fire is when you make two in a row. (The Kicker)

...CBS needs to reevaluate how they decide which game to show during March Madness. There was one point on Friday when it looked like Pittsburgh might be upset by #16 ETSU (Eastern Tennessee State University?) and I was getting Dayton vs. West Virginia. Who cares about Dayton vs. West Virginia? Then again who would actually want to watch the biggest upset in tournament history? Pittsburgh ended up winning by ten, but it still makes me mad. (Juice)

...My favorite NCAA Tournament stat ever: In 2006 American companies lost $3.8 billion in productivity from its workers who were watching games, filling out brackets or looking at NCAA tournament coverage online. Gotta love corporate America being screwed by college basketball. (The Kicker)

...How much would someone have to pay you to hang out with Vin Diesel? (Juice)

...As discussed before I would want at least $1000/hour and he has to pay for everything we do while hanging out. (The Kicker)

...I hate Family Circus. (Juice)
