  1. Will it feature a forge that's in the sky, or will it be a more traditional ground-based forge that will allow you to hammer out skies? Maybe there won't even be forge at all. The promise of a forge could just be a red herring.
  2. That actually worked out well for me. They got the exciting games out of the way earlier, then with all the late games being blowouts I didn't feel compelled to stay up and watch them, meaning I don't have to be a zombie at work today.
  3. Creighton is playing the part of the proverbial one-legged man in an ass kicking contest.
  4. That UNC/Iowa St. game Wow, that was a fun game to watch!
  5. Yeah, that game was super duper exciting and tense all the way through with tons of momentum swings.
  6. Down go the Shockers, the undefeated season is over.
  7. Like chew and screw? So I want to make a meatball sub. I have meatballs, sauce, onions, cheese... oops no rolls. But wait, I have a loaf of garlic bread on hand. /lightbulb lights up over head Pray for my arteries.
  8. Is there a better weekend of sports than the first 2 rounds of the NCAA Tournament? (I know the NCAA is trying to sucker us into thinking this is round 3, but that's a bunch of hogwash. Those play-in games are not round 1, no one gives a crap about those games outside of the teams involved)
  9. Starting the day's action off with a thrilling game between Stanford and Kansas and another high seed goes down.
  10. Quen is so insanely overpowered in that game. With maxed out Quen you don't need anything else really.
  11. Ugh, somebody had a little too much to drink last night, and by somebody I mean me, and by a little too much to drink I mean a lot too much to drink. I definitely got overagressive celebrating UCONN taking down 'Nova. Sorry 'bout that folks.
  12. Heck yes! Just like in my bracket and as I've said, UCONN won again and moved on to the Sweet 16. Seeding UCONN 7 was a travesty, but it's all good now since they just beat the NCAA's darling #2 Wildcats. Might as well call UCONN the #2 seed now, huh, bitches? Suck on that, corrupt, skewed, committee. Had you seeded the tournamenyt correctly, your precious overrated Wildcats might still be in it. Oh well. Suck it.
  13. For a low scoring game that Dayton/'Cuse game was hella exciting. I was going bonkers during the last 2 minutes (15 minutes in real time).
  14. Man, we're getting some st00000oooOOOOoo000ooOO00oopid low scoring games today. Dayton/'Cuse is 20-18 at the half. 20-18! Still, this game is infinitely more watchable than the earlier anti-score-fests for 2 reasons: 1) Bill Raftery - He's the freakin' best. Far and away the best color commentator in The States. Only Gus Johnson comes anywhere close to being as entertaining. Onions! 2) Allie LaForce - We only get a few brief glimpses of her during the game, but during those glimpses I'm like
  15. CBS bringing out Allie LaForce for the Dayton/Syracuse game. SWOON!
  16. The score at the half for the St. Louis/Louisville game is 16-25. That is not a misprint. Here are a couple really sad combined stats: Field Goals Made 15 Turnovers 21 Some of it is good defense, but a lot of it is these teams having a masonry convention.
  17. Man, this St. Louis/Louisville game is tough to watch, and I can't even blame the refs. I'm too lazy to look up stats, but it seems like the teams are shooting a combined 5%. At this rate, this game will finish 32 to 40 or something like that.
  18. That seems like a decent place to go with the series, although I dread what they will do to the history. I'll just play it like I play AssCreed2 (the only AssCreed game I've own so far), which is to say, I'll completely ignore the story and play it like a rooftop jumping simulator. I must say, from the pictures and the trailer I've seen, those are some mighty fine looking rooftops.
  19. No big deal. Actually the stats surprised me. I figured Miami had been feasting on the pathetic East. Agreed. Those stats can be slightly misleading though. Here's another stat: Versus teams at .500 or above: Miami 21-11 .6563 OKC 26-13 .6667 This suggests that a fair number of those wins for the Heat against the West came against the bottom dwellers. To be fair, OKC has been feasting on bottom dwellers when they've played them, though they haven't played bottom dwellers as often. Versus team below .500 Miami 26-9 .7429 OKC 25-5 .8333 Basically, against good teams, Miami and OKC are about even and while Miami has been very good against the bottom dwellers, OKC has beer spectacular, which accounts for OKC's mildly better record. Edit: @Leferd - Speaking of poor drafting in the 1st round, we'd be remiss if we didn't mention Cleveland. Over the last 3 years they've had two #1s and two #4s. They've turned that into Kyrie and a bunch of mediocre at best.
  20. My bad, kgambit, typo on my part. Fixed now.
  21. Not meaningless. Only 30 players in the entire league average at least 1 block per game (not surprisingly almost exclusively centers and power forwards). Also, Durant averages more than double that of LeBron, a significant margin any way you look at it. You're right, that are definitely some other blindfolded Lebron supporters out there that refuse to acknowledge what has been happening this year. I'm saying that Durant has been having a better season than LeBron, but not by a huge margin. Seems straight forward and consistent enough to me. Speaking of meaningless arguments, you're arguing about this year's MVP using things that happened last year and in the playoffs, whereas MVP is a regular season award (hence why they have a separate MVP for the finals). But hey it's not like we ever saw LeBron fold in the playoffs when he was younger, oh wait, we did. Several times. For once, you actually posted something correct: Miami vs. East 28-13 .6829 vs. West 19-7 .7308 OKC vs. East 22-6 .7857 vs. West 29-12 .7073 Because they can afford to on account of playing in a super weak conference. Fun fact, the Phoenix Suns would currently not make the playoffs, but if they were in the Eastern Conference, they would be a 3 seed. Statistically, Durant has been better than LeBron. By my own eye test (which is of course quite subjective) Durant has been better by virtue of LeBron taking some nights off (from an effort standpoint) while Durant has played defense hard all year. Which, again, plays into the fact that Durant has had to play harder all year while LeBron has had the luxury of being able to take nights off due to playing in an easy conference. When they both try their hardest, I still think LeBron is a better defender, but not by a wide margin. More fun stats: Triple Doubles this season: Durant 3 LeBron 0 Double Doubles this season: Durant 25 LeBron 10
  22. Maybe he's a necrophiliac. Did you stick around to see if he did anything else with the corpse?
  23. You'll be happy to know that you will find yourself in a significantly more uncomfortable setting later on.
  24. I'm playing Wooooooohoooooohooooohoooooo March Madness! Video games, what are video games?
  25. Coastal Carolina made it super exciting and interesting for a half, but ultimately, the dream of a 16 beating a 1 was quickly squashed in the second half. Oh well.
