NCAA tournament 2011 — running thread

I was thinking the same thing, that is how it usually seems to be. Seems the powers that be do a shitty job deciding which games should be prime time and which should be during working hours.

 

It's not like Sparty went down 23 to Kansas or Duke.

They were down 23 to a pedestrian UCLA squad. It felt like Dale goddamned Brown was coaching the Bruins.

 

Is it my imagination or is CBS/ TBS timing TV timeouts to hit at same time.

 

It sure seems that way.

 

Nice knowin' ya, Oakland.

 

Wow. That's on the steep side. Denver was $64 and sold out. It's not cheap, but not necessarily a bad deal either at the latter price. But it seems there are more and more empty seats in the first rounds and that maybe there should be some adjustment. Went to OKC last year where Kansas couldn't even help them sell the place out.

 

Oakland's coach looks like a bad-hair John Goodman (OK, a John Goodman graduate of Hair Club for Men).

 

Anyone want to take another crack at what made Tennessee so special?

 

Hope Bruce Pearl got his resume ready at halftime. I don't think Tennessee even flies him home after this one.

 

I'll see your Goodman and raise you a NORM!

 

Same can be said for Michigan. Instead of rallying around Pearl, the Vols decided to check out around the 4:00 tv timeout.

 

Pretty good of the President to wait for the end of the Texas-Oakland game to talk Libya.
