Wow, that was random, Cole! Didn’t even know they were playing tonight. Hey, I guess it takes an ex-Bearcats coach to get WV a winning record, so enjoy. Right after you go to hell! You go to hell and you die!

JenJen: did the Bobcats win tonight?

Georgia Tech barely beat a bad NC team earlier.

@JenJen: Just thought I would start the shit-talk with a bang.

Guess I better start paying attention so I can fill out my brackets this weekend! At least Auburn got beat today. The SEC ain’t so hot this year, I don’t know that any of them who manage to get into the Dance will make it past the first weekend.

West Vag looks pretty damn good this year. If only Chuggins can stay off the sauce for 4 more weeks, they may get the oppy to be summarily destroyed by Kansas…....

@Mark S.:
Well, yeah, but even the vaunted Cats haven’t been the juggernaut they were in the past.
Did my eyes decieve me or is the Mountaineer a girl? If so, yay!

@John Cole: In that spirit: Why are you so eager to be the next victim of Notre Dame’s ridiculous run?

@JenJen:
I think it’s a term of endearment, back asswards, or something.
SEC tourney starts tomorrow. GO CATs!! And go to hell all you haters.

As much as I’m thankful for WVU’s helluva season this year (the fact that they’re in the discussion for a #1 seed, however distant, is amazing), I just have a bad feeling about their tournament chances. They just can’t keep a lead, or they give the first half away and are forced to blaze back in the 2nd.
And what’s with the hollering and jeering in the Garden for this game?

That Hoyas win over the ‘Cuse is huge. We’ll see your Mountaineers in the finals!
JenJen - March 11, 2010 | 11:36 pm · Link
Well, I hope you’re happy. Not.
And I wasn’t even going to watch basketball today! So pffft.

@Awktalk: nice Hoya win today, but I’m not looking past Marquette.
themann1086 - March 11, 2010 | 11:40 pm · Link
@Awktalk: Nah, I think you’ll be seeing some GREEN on Saturday.
Bring it on, Mountaineers! :D
Kryptik - March 11, 2010 | 11:55 pm · Link
Holy sweet green Jesus.
Clutch shot by Butler there, and we escape with a win we shouldn’t have, by all rights. I’ll take it, but yeah, this is why I’m scared for the ‘Eers’ tourney chances.

Yet more proof for the Republicans that Obama hates Amurikka.

Oh, do people still play (and watch) college basketball?
I’m on the West Coast, where the Pac-10 has completely dominated in terms of total and absolute mediocrity.

Go Lobos! They’ve had a great season so far. Now let’s see if they can clean up at the tournament.
Eat shit Pac 10. Mountain West Conference will get as many as four bids to The Dance.

Glad to see GaTech put ol’ Roy out of his misery. Talk about doing less with more.
Meanwhile, the “shockingly unathletic” ( thanks for the line, Gottlieb, ya putz) will be the last ones standing. Get ready to see Jon Scheyer wearing the net around his neck on April 5.

I’m a huge UConn fan. cries This has been the most craptacular year in the history of craptacular. At least in the early 80s they were supposed to suck. Calhoun did sign a four year extension… so that’s an definite “woohoo!”
... now for something I thought I’d never utter as a UConn fan: “When does football season start!!”
We open with Michigan at the big house…
