Hold the newsreader's nose squarely, waiter, or friendly milk will countermand my trousers.
Vegas is keeping the point spread at 12, I guess they figure that not even Boeheim can bs his way past two one seeds.

That said, I hate UNC enough to want to see them implode like Virginia did.

Back to the previous game since I was out watching that:

That was one of the most surreal basketball games I've ever seen. I'm pretty sure I've never seen any team shoot that well from the field in any game with any amount of importance behind it, and they did in the Final Four.

And the other team couldn't hit water from a boat, the difference was just amazing. The other team that happened to have the best shooter in college basketball.

It was like the Butler team from the UConn final went back in time and played the UNLV team that vaporized Duke.

If you're not willing to lick the boot, then really why are you in politics lol? Everything is a cycle of just getting stomped on so why do you want to lose to it over and over, just submit like me, I'm very intelligent.
Tonight sucked. The women's tournament has been much better than the men's this year

I'm a breakfast guy: three eggs scrambled, with bacon and wheat toast, burnt. The problem is, it never came back burnt. For years it would arrive limp and tan, which brought breakfast to a standstill when I sent the toast back. It was costing me 10 minutes a day, which, multiplied by six days a week, is four hours a month. That's 48 hours—two full days—per year. My friends, time is currency. My wife, Courtney, got tired of hearing me complain about it. She found a photograph on the Internet of a kitchen toaster ejecting two slices of burnt toast. She minimized it, printed it out and had it laminated. She insisted I put it in my wallet. When I order, I present the photo to my server. I get some strange looks, but I can assure you, the toast now arrives black and scary, just the way I like it.

This UConn-Oregon State game is now Mario Party, wherein fouls are just called randomly to give the game some fun

Everything was going okay for Oregon State for most of first half. They did a lot to shut down the inside game, Breanna Stewart went scoreless, and their guards were able to penetrate offensively.

Too bad UConn went on that 15-2 run to blow up the game

Once Villanova could set the score it stopped being good, entertaining basketball

this, however, does not mean it wasn't fun, because it's really fun to watch a team dominate so thoroughly

(this is why it's fun to watch the UConn women)

You're not gonna win a lot of games wherein your opponent is shooting 46% from the arc
