I shoulda picked Troy, I guess.

Auburn overall #1 ?

I realize the ACC is way down and the SEC is up, but…

AU lost 3 of last 4 and lost to Duke.

No big deal. Just sayin’…

First time San Diego has ever had four teams in the NCAA tournament(s). SDSU and UCSD are both sending men's and women's teams. For UCSD it's the first year eligible because of the four year wait after jumping from D2. One of the guys on CBS went out on a limb and predicted UCSD upsetting Michigan in round 1 and then beating Yale in round 2. Sweet Sixteen in the first year of eligibility would be sweet.

I’ll pull for your boys over Michigan for sure.

State of Alabama has 4 teams in: Alabama, Auburn, Troy and ASU. UAB nearly got there, too.

Rack the nucleus!

Florida looks great.

My surprise sweet 16 team is Vandy. I'm pulling for St. Mary's since they are minutes from Cal and have a great Rugby team which gives Cal (best college Rugby team in history) fits when they play. Vandy should beat the Gaels and move on to Bama. Which I think they could beat and reach the 16.

Haven't seen all the teams so I'm not sure who I'm taking. Too busy with the NBA coming down the stretch out West and it's truly been Madness. The Warriors are 15-1 in games in which Jimmy "Buckets" has played since acquiring him.

Big game tonight in The City vs. The Joker and Denver. Then the next night against Giannis and the Bucks. Tough back to back and a real test.




The Cal women are in and the furd women are out for the first time in like 1,000 years or something like that.

Let the Madness begin!

Columbia (women)

Aniwaniwa Tait-Jones



Big West player of the year and hands down the coolest name in the tournament.

By this time next year iPhone won’t insist on autocorrecting his first name.

Probably should.
He’s a Kiwi, made it to California by way of Hawaii.
I hope he doesn’t get deported in the next couple of weeks.

Muh Truump!

Never gets old :roll:

Who said anything about Trump? I’m sitting here fantasizing about getting picked up by ICE Barbie.



You must have TDS. Seems you’re fixated on MUH Trump.

Is this how you are going to act from now on? Or is this a childish phase you're going through?

Sorry if I offended you. I’ll try to do better.

Nice edit.

You're so good at this.

Seriously, I don’t want offend your delicate sensibilities by posting anything that might be construed as critical in any way of your Dear Leader. Sometimes I get carried away.

You call out posters for not creating unique threads about nonpolitical topics and then shit the same current event narratives in response to anything and everything but it's... *checks this thread*... my fault? Mmkay, psychopath.

Seriously, go to my College Baseball thread in which I'm essentially talking to myself about college baseball teams that suck and my 'glory' days and drop some Muh Trump there-it's about the only thread you haven't tarded up with your crybaby BS.

Well RACK you anyway for sticking up for your helpless little MAGAt buddy HighHard1. He obviously is way past his “glory days” of posting in the college baseball forum and can’t fend for himself here, except for bleating MUH Trump a couple of times a week. The “High” brothers make a great team. Keep up the good work.

Who is the crybaby here? I made one flippant comment about how I hope a guy doesn’t get deported before the tournament and you two have to turn it into a bleating MUH Trump fest. Ponderous how easily triggered you little MAGAts are.

You do understand that this forum is called “Cul de Smack” don’t you? Thank God and gOd you’re not tarding it up with five page essays about sucky college baseball teams. Go back to talking to yourself. It suits you.

Marquette is going to shock the world (my neighbor went to Marquette and he claims to have this on very good information).

^^^^^^^^^

Just jinxed Marquette

I warned you.

Dumbfuckistanians don't have much of a sense of humor.

The fact they think Bob Hope is funny at front should have been your clue.


That being said, I hope the nucleus of the team doesn't get deported, as well.

MUHHHH Trump!!!

Hope he doesn't get deported.

Alfred "Butch" Lee Jr. (born December 5, 1956) is a Puerto Rican former professional basketball player. Lee was the first Puerto Rican and first Latin American-born athlete to play in the National Basketball Association (NBA), accomplishing this after being selected in the first round of the 1978 NBA draft.

Looking forward to the play-in tonight.

The Aztecs (San Diego State) take on the Tar Heels (North Carolinastan) in Ohiostan at 6:00pm tonight.

The Tar Heels don't belong in the tournament.

Yeah, Butch Lee could deported from the USA back to Puerto Rico if he's not careful.
Edit: I guess he self-deported years ago on his own volition.

I got to see David Thompson play a few times back in the day. Skywalker for sure.

A couple my friends bought four season tickets the first year the Clippers were in San Diego and a lot of us got to take advantage. Got to see all of the great players of the time when they came through town. Thompson, Ice Man Gervin, Moses Malone, Dr J... and the Baby Gorilla/Chocolate Thunder from the University of Mars, who I saw on the beach in PB one day that season. Unmistakable even from a distance. Thompson was inhuman.

We actually had a pretty entertaining team that season. Led by Randy Smith, Lloyd (soon to be "World B") Free, Freeman Williams, Sidney (Stone Hands) Wicks, Kermit (don't turn your back on him) Washington and the incomparable Swen Nater.

Best block I've ever seen. Thompson was actually 6 ft 3.





Thompson scored 73 points in an NBA game if I recall. Back when they didn't have a 3 point shot.

Unreal.

I wasn't calling an Aztec win. I know you don't follow sports, so I understand you not getting what I was pointing out.

Their record was not worthy of an invite. The only reason they got in was because their AD sits at the top of the selection committee. There were a lot of pissed off schools that deserved to get in that didn't because of the Tar Heels AD basically adding his team because he could.

Since it's been a major story all over the country. I'm sure most of the posters understood what I meant.

But, not Chip.


Too funny.

Wow. The Aztecs really shit the bed last night. I switched to season two of Severance when the score was 33-13. It was a down year for them. Mostly first year players and a lot of injuries. They lost something like 90% of their scoring and minutes from last year but they still won 21 games. Coach Dutcher will have them back soon. They were in the championship game two years ago.

I hope the Tritips can at least make it to the second round.
