    I will obviously be pulling for both Miller lads today, and expecting to be disappointed twice.

    Florida has beaten every foe by double digits so far, despite not once playing their A, or even B+ game. That’s a bad omen for the Fightin’ Archies.

    After re-reviewing my “Justified” bracket, I may need Arizona to win tonight (in addition to a Shadow Pack championship) to finally win my very large office pool (I’ve worked there since March 2000). So naturally the boring-assed Badgers will dance on. AZ’s short bench gives me pause.

    Here’s a fabulous song that makes me want to dance. You will surely hate it:

    I can continue to be prideful and pull for my remaining F4 picks (Gators, Wiscy, Sparty), or I can go with ‘legacy’ and give the Miller lads a boost. Since my bracket is now on the verge of shambles (dropped from 2nd to a t6th with last night’s fare) pride is all that’s left.

    EDIT/CORRECTION – They must have updated leaderboard late last night. I am not tied for 6th, but have it all to myself now. Woo hoo.

    Unfortunately, the elder Miller lad coaches UofA. Go Wiscy (but happy for Sean personally if he notches the win)
    I will be pulling for the younger, however. Would love to see Dayton roll on into Texas and shake things up next weekend.

    Still will pull for Sparty over UConn.

    Wish both Michigan and Kentucky could lose.

    Take this, hipster boy….

    Remember, it’s only “hipster tendencies” for me – I don’t have the ironic T-shirts or inflated sense of self-worth to merit full hipster status.

    Almost gametime. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst for the Archies.

    Yeah I know, I was just messing with ya. Plus I figured you needed a little loud punk in your life (though I actually toned it down some, lol)

    Let’s go Archies, trash the rest of my bracket and make me proud.

    The murdering looked to be on, but Archies stemmed the bleeding and as we learned last night…even a disastrous start might nonetheless end in victory.

    There’s a WWII in Colour marathon if the now-resumed murdering gets too far out of hand.

    Or someone just needs to supply more punk videos.

    Gators are stout, but Dayton hanging at least thus far.
    As Kentucky proved, keep it close enough and anything can happen.

    I already missed the Charlie Sheen Vietnam doc on natgeo again. It was on at noon and I meant to record it but forgot, LOL.

    The Pizza Hut wings are legitimately good, FWIW.

    Where has all the Wolfpack people done gone tonight? Saving all their energy for the Shadow Pack tomorrow, I suppose.

    Or maybe some people actually have lives and do shit on Saturday night. I pity them.

    I do enjoy the shots of Lenny Elmore being annoyed by Reggie Miller.

    Next year I propose Larry David to announce with Lenny. My kinda crotchety dream team.

    Just 3 more minutes to survive without a decisive Gator run. Maybe the halftime break would put some pressure on the Gators if still a one possession game.

    14-1 run to end the half was not helpful.

    ^^Not at all…

    This game should be over after that…

    All the GatorHoles need now is play the first four minutes of the second half strong to even and that should finish it off…

    ^Call 911 … Archie did…

    Right, Dog – either the Archies come out on fire with an immediate run…or this one’s completely over. Hope Sean fares better in the nightcap.

    Archie’s almost as tall as Rachel.

    Is it still halftime? Dayton score? Stuck at swimmeet. CBS scores are slow.
