March Sadness 2012


Sports

What started off rough ended possibly even more rough, missing our last 3 cards by 3, 1 and 1 points all from poor play and mostly missed foul shots. The fundamentals in this year’s tournament, or lack there of, was mind boggling. From start to finish, the quality of play was so subpar I’m only […]

March Madness 2012: wtf


Sports

Holy cow is this not going as planned. I see a pattern here, a pathetically feeble downhill slope where we won good a few years ago and have won less and less each year since. That’s a trend that needs to stop. Tomorrow. Today was day 1 of the tournament. It sucked. Pretty much all […]

March Madness 2012 First Four: ouch


Sports

We overcame Mississippi Valley State blowing a 16 point lead. We overcame 95 points in the first half of a 162 point BYU under. We couldn’t overcome the Gaels blowing a 25 point first half lead to BYU. How does a team score 17 points in the 2nd half after scoring 55 in the 1st? […]

Selection Sunday 2012


Sports

Tomorrow’s the big day. The ACC Tournament wraps up by noon, the Big Ten Tournament is done by 3PM, the Selection Show is on CBS immediately afterwards and then there’s hours and hours of bracket breakdowns and bracketology goodness on ESPN that makes Selection Sunday another great sports day. Only a few more days until […]

Weekly Fantasy Rant ‘11 Week 14b


Fantasy

Or not. One cure for a horrible fantasy week is an ever more horrible fantasy week by the team you’re playing against. So I didn’t deserve it but I won and finished the regular season 11-3. Even with a loss though, I would have kept the #1 seed. It doesn’t matter though because it’s looking […]

Weekly Fantasy Rant ‘11 Week 8b


Fantasy

I’m going to start this post by stating up front that I was going into the matchup fully realizing that I was starting Alex Smith and Curtis Painter. I didn’t have much of a chance which is why this week ended up being quite an interesting one. I never feel out of it however with […]

Weekly Fantasy Rant ‘11 Week 8a


Fantasy

I really just need to resolve myself to the fact that I am going to lose this week and stop trying. It’s way easier that way. If Tim wins this year, or even makes the playoffs, he better get the “Cakest schedule ever” award.

Weekly Fantasy Rant ‘11 Week 7


Fantasy

And we’re now halfway through the Fantasy Football regular season and I’m in 3rd place with a 5-2 record, an average of 143.99 PPG and 125.75 PPGA. That’s #1 PPG and #9 PPGA. This league is tough. #1 in PPG and this has been as far away from a walk in the park as it […]
