In Which Dante Calabria Gets Some Run

Welcome to the 3rd volume of Gheorghe: The Podcast. In this very special March Madness edition, the team actually manages to deliver a focused, somewhat brief essay on what we love about the tournament. Among other nuggets for the discerning listener:
  • Mark tells a story about his parents' child-rearing style that explains quite a bit

  • We agree that John Wall seems like kind of a dick, though we also agree that he's a phenomenal player

  • Whitney gets caught by his mother doing something alone in his room

  • We prepare for face painting

  • Rob admits to crying - which makes him more rather than less of a man

Consider this an aural appetizer (get your mind out of the gutter, KQ) in advance of the greatest four days in the sports calendar.

A couple reactions:

*Rob's voice sounds 69% more nasal than it does in real life on these things.

*For a tattooed, bearded freak, Mark is surprisingly articulate. He still isn't welcome inside my home until he's sleeved and shaved, but when he talks about Willie Burton I'm instantly whisked away to a far off world...

*I could have used 16% more TJ.

You mean Willie Horton, right?

No Z-Man. We don't.

Goatate.

Geoff said...

No, I mean former Gopher Willie Burton.

Dudes that played hoops in a mask for 400 Alex.

hard to deny that i have a voice for blogging.

zman said...

So ... Willie Horton was a political reference. Right up Jee-auf's alley, I thought. I guess you guys are too young to remember how GWH Bush swift boated Dukakis?

zman said...

Or GHW Bush. Whatever his name is.

Geoff said...

I familiar with furlough Willie...I just thought you didn't get our joke when actually we didn't get yours. Yep...this is an effective use of all of our time.

zman said...

It beats working.

Midtown looks like Blowout only with stylish pretty women, black folks, and no bumpkins. Shitshow.

fine podcast.
going to get in a quick yahg this morning, or JOg, as some people are calling it.
i will then shower and head to airport, for what will hopefully be a much less eventful trip for me than it was for whit a few weeks ago.
i should be 2-3 bloody's into the day by lunchtime - i'll keep you posted. missing yesterday's partying seems a distant memory now.
happy hoops
