It's the First Four! Yay!

Today is #16 Manhattan vs #16 Hampton, and #11 BYU vs #11 Ole Miss. Hampton has a losing record! Manhattan loves the press! BYU loving loves scoring points! I know nothing about Ole Miss except that they're racist!

Tomorrow is #16 Robert Morris vs #16 North Florida, and #11 Dayton vs #11 Boise State. RMU is a college! This is North Florida's first time in the tourney! Dayton has six scholarship players! Boise State is in Idaho (also, the game is at Dayton, because the committee is a bunch of idiots!)!

Watch some basketball, y'all. You can watch them all here

Does anyone know how the March Madness app work this year? I don't get trutv on cable but there are some games I want to watch on it tomorrow and friday, do I need to be careful about watching the play in games or can I watch whatever I want? I know some years its been unlimited but others had limits.

E: It looks like there is a three hour limit if you aren't signed in to a tv provider. :(

Call your mom or dad, say hello. Try and be a good son/daughter. And then ask them for their TV provider information.

I stopped considering the First Four to be a lovely money-grab when one of the teams actually made the Final Four. It then became part of the tourney for real.

So, gently caress yes! Tournament basketball! Without the stress of my team playing!

The whole thing is a lovely money-grab.

Regardless, gently caress yes! Tournament basketball!

Also VCU made it the first year they added the play-in games for 11/12 seeds, which is the best loving thing. I even remember hearing people bitching about some other bubble team being kept out in favor of VCU, and well...

BYU uses less than 15 seconds per possession.

I mean, gently caress BYU is an important principle of my life, but Points Are Cool And Good.
