Jay wright doing a great clips commercial is fantastic. I guarantee he hasn’t paid less than 245 dollars for a haircut in 20 years.

That Coke commercial - Is it the Good Guys, Duke, Iowa State and <Coke>?

So the last guy (closeup shot), was that a UConn jersey thet ever existed?

Colorado St and South Dakota St back in their games, margins under 10.

Except its final four arenas. Those are quite beautiful.

The results are. The venues and surroundings are shitholes. Except for San Antonio. Houston is a war zone.

CSU sticking around after 11 point 1st half. 6 point game!

Stupid McNeese hasn't defended a play yet and has missed 15 layups and open looks.

So there's a 7 foot young guy at my local right now. Guess where he played ball?

Walking Houston last year was like walking in downtown Bridgeport.

Worse. Because eventually in Bport you will actually get somewhere.

And Gonzaga fans travel better to Seattle than UConn. Still a neutral

But if you asked this board we for sure considered that a road game.

Duquesne proving that conference tourney winners are tough.

They shouldn’t worry yet. But they should start thinking about playing some more aggressive D. And what the hell is a Zip?

.

It has to do with rubber boots called Zippers.

Correct that boot made by *BF Goodrich of Akron .
was the first thing to utilize the new then un named fastener . The fastener we call Zippers actually got its name from that boot. and the device became synonymous with it.
Since it was faster having Zip meant a little extra or quicker.
I actually learned something on thr Bonyard

Apparently there’s a train there that nobody uses according to my friend who lived there.

You had them as an upset pick/on your parlay too huh?

But it wasn’t.

Or let him steal your car.

 

[87Xfer]

Any hope of a CSU win has slipped away.

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

But it wasn’t.

Your Providence is showing!

KY playing like a bunch of individual guys. Huge surprise.

There was but they were useless. After the games, they filled up with homeless people and early exit fans at the station near the stadium. No room for anyone. So a lot of people were just walking the train line or trying to find Ubers. Was a total mess. UConn bar was like…20 min away from the stadium or so. People were crying and girls were screaming that they wanted to go home.

By the time I got to the UConn bar everyone was hugging each other out of happiness that our friends were alive and made it. Once we settled down we discussed the game.

Kentucky is like a really talented randomly assembled pick-up team. No offense, ever, no plan on how to get a clean shot. Cal is atrocious.

South Dakota St cuts it to 4

Gohlke with 9 three pointers.
