I hear there’s some big news in college basketball

By GibbyZee ⋅ March 11, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Yes, the college basketball tournament is finally upon us. CBS insists on calling it March Madness, even though it apparently hurts the feelings of the mentally ill. Mental illness is no laughing matter, you know. But I’m not here to battle for political correctness, because I think March Madness is an appropriate moniker for the […]

What the Hell Happened to Iona?

By oddSeth ⋅ February 3, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

In one of those stories that has little logical explanation, the Iona Gaels are 0-22. For the mathematically challenged, that means they haven’t won a single damn game. All year. And they’re not exactly playing top shelf teams, either, as all sorts of teams have been hanging losses on them this year.
The truly bizarre thing […]

That Neck Medicine will Knock You on Your Ass, Yo

Apparently Eddie Sutton was found passed out in his car in front of a convenience store early this morning, and taken to a Stillwater hospital. Fear not, though, as Eddie was released later this afternoon and anyone who might have thought the old coot was passed out drunk, well, think again.
Sutton told a local newspaper […]

Rate The Mate: Matt Leinart and Brynn Cameron

By oddJoe ⋅ October 26, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

When we last reported on Matt Leinart’s love life, he was sluttin’ around with some infamous, rich, blonde bimbo shortly after being drafted by the Arizona Cardinals. Now we find out that the former USC playboy is . . . a father? It seems that Leinart and USC basketball player Brynn Cameron must have had […]

You Can’t Stop This Footloose Tree From Dancing

By oddJoe ⋅ August 27, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

The NCAA has drawn a line in the sand against dancing trees. The collegiate sports governing body fined Stanford University and suspended its mascot, The Stanford Tree, for an incident that occurred at this year’s women’s basketball tournament. According to a committee report, The Tree was dancing in a “no dance zone” at Denver’s Pepsi […]

The Hater Report: #3 Gonzaga 71, #2 UCLA 73

Damn you, Zags. The post was written. (Something about the Pac-10 being overrated? I don’t remember, but it was very funny.) Then you go and blow it.
Speaking of which, someone get John Holmes Jr. a fluffer before he cries.

The Hater Report: #6 West Virginia 71, #2 Texas 74

Tough one, Pittsnogle, but take solace. With that tribal tat, you’re still the coolest thing the girls back in Dogpatch have seen outside The OC.

The Hater Report: #1 Duke 54, #4 LSU 62

Who’s Your Daddy? Battier! Who’s Your Daddy? Battier! Who’s Your…
Oh, wait. Sorry. Wrong year, wrong cheer. How does that other one go? Oh yeah.
Nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey, Goo-oodbye! Nah nah nah nah…

University of Tennessee a #2 Seed?

By oddSeth ⋅ March 13, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

For everyone squawking about the ridiculosity of the “expert” selection committee giving the University of Tennessee a #2 seed, settle down. There’s a very logical explanation for it.
The selection committee just got a little confused and thought they were seeding the women’s brackets.
(Wokka wokka, I’ll be here all week, tip your gorgeous wait staff, […]

Dude, Nantzie, Take a Pill of the Chill Variety

By oddSeth ⋅ March 13, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

While the Interwebs tells me that Jim Nantz is a University of Houston alum, I’m not buying it. Or maybe he had a really bad experience with an airplane while growing up, getting strafed by a crop duster, piloted by a dude named George. Something.
‘Cause man, Nantzie was angry yesterday when the selection committee […]
