March Madness

[KY_TOP]

I think the NCAA College Basketball Tournament is the most exciting 3 weeks in sports. I've watched more TV during this Tournament than I have all year.

 

Can't believe my favorite team "Louisville" came from 20 points down to beat West Virgina in overtime, breaking their Cinderella slipper, and are now in the Final Four.

 

With Kentucky also in the Elite Eight, it is a great time to be a Basketball fan in KY.

 

Go Cards.....Go Cats...

GO Illini......though they're 11 behind right now

[+ deej]

Gotta love a sport where they talk about how short a guy is at "only" 6'4". ;-)

 

(GO ILLINI!)

>GO Illini......though they're 11 behind right now

 

Well Barry they pulled it out and now play Louisville in the Final Four. Guess loser pays for dinner the next time I get to Chicago. Goooo Cards....

[Barry]

Deal!!!!!

[+ deej]

And what an exciting ending it was!

 

OSKEE WOW WOW!

 

(That's Illini-speak for "hey, they didn't fuck up!")

 

I'd say my hometown, Champaign, IL, is rocking tonite but I have a feeling they're all in Rosemont. :+

I don't think we can continue as friends after you knocked out the University of Utah (for the 5th time). :*

 

Not much to watch now.

I live about 2 miles from the Allstate Arena in Rosemont and I can tell you it's totally nuts around here.

I was in the Allstate Arena and the roar was indeed deafening. IT is really interesting the different things you can pick up from seeing the game in person. At the end of the first half, I didn't think things looked to great. Except for the three point shooting, the interior play by Augustine and Ingram was poor. Roger Powell, Jr. was average at best. Dee Brown was invisible most of the half. Thank god for Luther Head and Deron Williams. In the second half the tide kept on going out and with five minutes to go, the faithless were trickling out for the exits. The arena got silent and the Illini Nation behaved like they were at the wake for Chief Illiniwek. I wouldn't leave. The guy next to me, a Champaign native, had his eyes closed and was praying. I guess the prayers helped because the team sure arose from the dead. Watching the game on TV, you have no clue how loud the arena was on Thursday and last night. During the TV timeouts when they play the commercials, the cheerleaders hold up cards that say "ILL" to one half of the arena and "INI" to the other half. And we were all yelling and chopping our arms. I think that the noise had to intimidate the Arizona players to some extent. There was a definite home court advantage last night.

[Guest ihpguy]

Was in Shoeless Jo's sports bar before the game, and besides the visits by the cheerleaders and the game band, had the cute brother of a friend pinch my nipples in a tandem-hand move, and the guy is straight. IS this normal behavior for drunken straight guys? Should I have been hanging out in sports bars the last few years? Well, I felt that one good turn deserves another, and gave I very nice squeeze through his workout pants of his cock and balls. Nice fun diversion.

Looks like Michigan State got Utah's revenge. ;(

 

But Louisville is still in the dance. Go Cards...

 

This has been a great tournament with 3 of the Final Four Teams'games decided in Overtime...Awesome Baybeee

[+ deej]

Been incredible finishes this year. What fun!

 

GO ILLINI!

[Chuck50]

I just want to know how many of the guys have their cock's hanging out of their short's, that use to be an item. I know that they now wear these pants that hang to their knee's, they sure don't show much. But inquiring minds want to know??? HUGS Chuck

>Looks like Michigan State got Utah's revenge.

 

Well, although I graduated from the University of Utah, I did live in Michigan for several years. Since Michigan got the job done, we can resume the friendship. ;-)

[Guest ihpguy]

Being exceedingly politically incorrect. I miss Illinis' own version of the lawn jockey, as well as Amos n'Andy:

CHIEF ILLINIWEK

[Guest ReturnOfS]

What?! All this talk about March Madness and not one single pic of a hot young college player?! tsk tsk tsk

[+ deej]

Yes. Imagine!

 

Using a native american to symbolize and glorify honor, bravery, loyalty, and fraternity.

 

How degrading!

[Guest ihpguy]

Hail to the orange, hail to the blue...

Illini Nation!

[Guest ihpguy]

Five minutes into the second half and the Illini are up by one point. We need the Chief! Calling Chief Illiniwek. Do your dance.

[Guest ihpguy]

Thank god for the Rev and Luther(give-me-some) Head. Eight minutes and fifty seconds left, Illini Nation up by 6!

OSKEE WOW WOW!

Looks like Barry is coming to dinner. ;( I should be in Chicago the last of June to pay off my losing bet.

[Barry]

Great! I look forward to a relaxing evening with you. Outside dining perhaps?
