March Madness Running Diary Final Post

7:17--Back from a break just checked out the breaking Cat news on the site from Gomez. He always gets great stuff. Loving the Brandon Knight possible verbal. Did you know he has a 4.3 GPA. That seems high. His school might not be that good at math, he might need help there.

7:21--We find out New Mexico St head coach said the magic word to get a quick Technical. I'd love a list of the magic words. I bet they are all featured on every episode of East Bound and Down.

7:23--Watching the Applebees commercial for appi-teasers. I am about to go through the TV. We need to end the diary so I can eat soon.

7:24--Just watch East Bound and Down please. Its so funny. I can't post any of our top 10 comments from today but they all have me giggling. Of course I want to get a job at a law firm someday so don't want to leave a paper trial.

7:27--We are all big fans of the bad boy Mowers spokes girl. She might have been on the Okie St. dance team.

7:29--Derek Favors with the travel. Lucian almost tips the coffee table over to scream NOT IN HIS FAVORS!

7:30--Big Dunk by Gani Lawal. Lots of great names in this game. Hey speaking of that

7:31--It's time to name our favorite Adult Movie sounding name. Its gotta be Peacock, since we don't get to watch Jimmer Fredette today (won't look up if that is correct). Lucian says "well it has to be him no one else has "risen" to the challenge--hehehe" He was proud of that one. Glad we are gonna be done soon

7:33 Holy Crap Glen Rice Jr.!?!?! Seriously? How did we know hear about this. A quick google search by Lucian confirms that YES that is Glen Rice's son. The one from Michigan and the Hornets and other places. I liked that guy even though he stole an All Star MVP from Michael Jordan in 1998. Jordan almost had a triple double but Rice scored like 9 points in about 13 seconds.

7:34--Matt Pilgrim of Okie St dunks one down hard. Lucian "PILGRIM...THE MAYFLOWER IS HERE! The Pilgrim's have arrived!!"

7:36--Ian Eagle just said while looking at the replay "Pilgrim, that was a FACIAL!" I'm just glad it wasn't from Peacock or I would have coughed up a lung.

7:37--"Monday, if you can't take the heat, stay out of Miami" Seriously people actually watch CSI, like on purpose. I think it just gets left on at hospitals and nursing homes across the country.

7:38--We are calling Sadorkis "The Dork" Thats what you get for having an ugly Mohawk and making bad plays.

7:41--This game is tied in a serious battle. I wish I had an ounce of energy. We need new blood. I hear we have reinforcements on the way, thank goodness.

7:42--none of the other games are within 10 points. I knew we were gonna get some duds today after how great yesterday was. That's ok I would have had a heart attack trying to type during all that wildness yesterday

7:43 BIG BLOCK from Favors prompts Ian Eagle to scream Do NOT go in there!! You could say the same thing about Lucian's Lair. Those Victor's sandwiches are hurting something fierce. Still wouldn't change a thing about going there. If you have to give that up to avoid a heart attack, what's the point?

7:46--Ga Tech up 2. Page hasn't hit a shot since the first half. They gotta get him some looks. How else is he gonna get carried off on their shoulders? He really does look like one of the kids from Hoosiers, I think the trainer that comes in and makes the granny shot free throws.

7:47--Lucian has disappeared. I am flying solo for the next few minutes. I'll use that time to tell you that no one should ever attempt to do this sort of diary unless you are Bill Simmons. He is fantastic at it. I feel like my fingers are about to fall off and I am nearly totally drained. Not sure how he does it without Cocaine and Steroids.

7:49--Seriously why do people need to talk and get on the internet at the same time. AT&T I just don't get it. Like it seems really unnecessary. can't you just wait till you are off the phone. Unless you are getting called by Who Want's to be a Millionaire and want to google an answer. But that just seems like cheating. So AT&T your phone is for cheaters and for people that think just driving and talking is not dangerous enough.

7:52--Derek Favors with a 3 off the backboard. I guess the Bank was in his Favors!!!. Where is Lucian, honestly was he kidnapped while I was in the bathroom? I'm about to put his picture on the milk cartons.

7:54--My favorite name in this game is Obi Muonelo but seriously nearly everbody in the game has an awesome name. Marshal Moses, Ray Penn, Maurice Miller, Iman Shupert are the others that we havn't talked about yet (like Peacock and Gani Lawal who I may have said was my favorite a few updates a go but if I can change, and you can change...THEN maybe everybody can change!! (more Rocky IV might be coming if Lucian doesn't get back soon)

7:59--haha Ian Eagle just yelled "same team!!" when 2 guys on Ga Tech were fighting for a rebound. I liked that. Lucian is still gone and I am waiting to get called with the Ransom Demands.

To who ever has him...GIMME BACK MY LUCIAN!!!!

8:02--51-49 Ga Tech. This is just a good game. The annoucers have been really good the last 2 days. Even Spero Dedes did ok in the Murray game yesterday. I think that was his name, I might be getting that confused with what is wrong with my dad's back.

8:06--Somebody just pulled up in the driveway. I'm trying to see if Lucian is duct-taped in the back seat.

8:07 Muonelo just got a 3 with a BOTTUMS from Ian Eagle to put Okie st. within 1.

8:12--Okie St band drummer has a neck beard. We just need shots of the dance team folks. Thanks. If your gonna screw up going to tight games late at least show stuff we like CBS come on fellas

8:14--Page with a big foul. he has 4. Just shoot buddy, his defense consists of him grabbing people's arms.

8:16--42 seconds left in the Gonzaga game and they are only up 6. Of course we are staying with with the Okie St. game.

8:21--Keiton Page with a big 3! His first points of the 2nd half. We all yelled for that. My friend Langston just showed up. Might give me new life.

8:24--Finally went to Gonzaga game just to show us it was over. Thanks for that CBS.

8:25--Ga Tech up 1 with 1:06 left. This is big times.

8:26--Mich St tie game w/ 8:30 left. I thought they had a chance to beat Kansas. They are doing their best to kill my already suffering bracket. On the plus side Lucian is back, had to help the fiance unload the car. He informs me that his bracket is getting killed like Murphy at the beginning of RoboCop.

8:31--Okie St. just ran the doo doo offense and got a turnover. Did you know they were down 3 but refused to actually set picks for Page. Good job guys. Travis Ford looks like he might eat someone's children.

8:33--Okie St. down 5 and with 18 seconds and takes about 12 to finally get off a bad shot. I love Travis Ford but really bad job by the team down the stretch. He looks upset, I wouldn't wanna be in that locker room.

8:34--Langston informs us that his bracket is hurt by Okie St. Everybodies bracket is destroyed I think. That's always fun

8:36--we get to New Mexico St. Mich St game NMS up 2. I've got one more game in me before we finish this up.

8:37--Langston Lucian and his fiance Ashley are all sitting on a 2 person couch. It looks weird. Langston is talking about fantasy baseball. I'm trying to avoid getting sucked in so people will still read this (as if anyone is still reading)

8:40--Tie game at 63 with 3:39 Left. These games are killing me. I've going on like 10 hours of this. I hope this isn't Carpal Tunnel sitting in, especially if nobody reads this. Well you know what, I had fun. This was a good time, and Lucian and I laughed alot.

8:44--New Mexico St. players are leading in neck tattoos. That's a good look fellas, seriously. What do you plan on doing if you don't play pro ball (which is only place I can think of that being halfway acceptable). I'm sure fortune 500 companies are beating down the door for New Mexico St. alums with neck tattoos

8:46--Hey Taco Bell, nobody was waiting on you to step it up in the seafood market. That shrimp taco looks like a weightloss device because of how sick it will make you.

8:49--we are all winding down. the Mich St. game needs to get over with. We need to go out somewhere.

8:51--I miss Maurice Ager from Mich St. AGER BOMBS! Lucious is good for a name but just doesn't do it for me.

8:52 New Mexico St. head coach looks likes a Mexican Tubby Smith

8:54 A New Mexico St. player just got hit in the Spero Dedes. That looks bad.

8:55 Kalin Lucas misses the first but hits the 2nd free throw to put Mich St. up 4 w/ 40 seconds left. Then the New Mexico St. Neck Tattoos run the Okie St hold the ball offense. But the ball goes out on Mich St.

8:58--Big shot by a Neck Tattoo player. They are down 1 with 18 seconds.

8:59--I still don't get the Southwest "Bags Fly Free" commercial where the guys show their painted chests. Is that supposed to make me want to go there. Fat guys bare chests.

9:01--Terrible lane violation call by the refs on New Mexico St. Helps Michigan St. get up one. I'm surprised the refs didn't have their Mich St. jerseys on for that one.

9:04--Well Mich St. pulls out the win. Sad it had to be on a awful call by the refs (they probably win anyway but still).

And with that we are closing the door on the March Madness Running Diary. Hope everybody had fun. I'm gonna go sleep for 17 hours. Go Racers and Cats tomorrow! Thanks for reading if anyone is still here.
