Lipscomb gets blown out, ruins my parlay. Time to terrorize the poor underpaid, overworked staffer handling their MBB Twitter account!

Lipscomb gets blown out, ruins my parlay. Time to terrorize the poor underpaid, overworked staffer handling their MBB Twitter account!

But the NCAA explicitly said NOT to do that!

I still have questions about this guy:

I Spent a Day With the Internet’s Most Beloved Risk-Taker. Millions Watch Obsessively. Few See What I Saw.

Millions of people are addicted to watching Vegas Matt lose it all. I think I know why.

That was wild. I've never heard of that guy before now. Thanks TSP! Sometimes you're useful.

Vegas Matt shows up on my feeds all the time. I've always liked El Cortez as a low-limit grind joint, interesting to read how they've done well by being early adapters to recording on the casino floor.

Took over 9.5 goals in Washington-Florida yesterday when the game was 3-3 at the end of the first. Caps pot three more early in the second period, then .... nothing. Ends 6-3. Oof, kind of a tough beat.

F a bunch of Auburn and Tennessee

The organizing principle of my entire life.

Just here to note that Texas is a 45.5-point favorite over William & Mary in the women's tournament.

And Texas wins by 44.

UConn hits a long, but meaningless, 3-pointer at the buzzer to hit the Over (150.5; final score was 77-75) against Florida.

Pretty good promo on FanDuel for the first two rounds, "Dog of the Day" -- bet one upset on the moneyline and if you cashed on the lowest seed to win of the day, you got a piece of $1 million in free bets shared that day. And you could bet as little as a dime.

I took Arkansas on Saturday and come Sunday morning had $83 in free bets. Gotta remember that one for next year.
