His Uzi up yo ass if he don't get paid..."
Sadly, fifteen years ago today Eric Lynn Wright, better known as rapper Eazy-E, passed away. I figured we had enough of the Tauntaun sleeping bag and instead could use some Eazy-E (and friends) prior to tonight's hoops action. Enjoy...but as you might recall, Mr. Wright and Co. use some "colorful" language, so try not to get fired listening to this.
i really enjoyed the tauntaun sleeping bag.
ReplyDeleteand when is whitney/godot going to get here?
ReplyDeleteOh, I sense Igor will be by any time now...
ReplyDeleteway to ruin the suspense, jerkbucket.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's very suspenseful to glimpse over to the list of G:TB staffers and see that, hey, look at that, Whit's name is gone and then there is this other name Igor. Oh god, hope I didn't ruin it for everyone.
ReplyDeletehttp://pleasefireme.com/
ReplyDeleteyou did. you ruined it for everyone, encyclopedia brown.
ReplyDeleteWho ruined it for everyone? That fat fucking drunk "TJ"? Yeah, fuck that guy.
ReplyDeleteSorry Mark. The Teej in no way wants to steal your schtick.
ReplyDeleteBailey Wick? Cane Lover? Forum For'em?
ReplyDeleteI'm confused. How are you stealing my shtick? In fact, what is my schtick?
ReplyDeleteAnd TJ has officially jumped the shark ego wise with the changing of his moniker to "The Teej". We're about two months away from him going solo with his own blog and dropping not so subtle disses to his old partner Z-Man as well as the rest of the G:TB staff.
ReplyDeletewe'll give his job to greg.
ReplyDeleteI'm only the Teej until the arrival of the artist formally known as Whitney. Or 5pm. Whatever comes first.
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly where The Teej's "Behind the Blog" starts...
ReplyDeleteWho says I'm not Greg?
ReplyDeleteDrew.
ReplyDeleteWhat'd I miss?
ReplyDeleteNothing. Just some douchebags who think they're too important to use their real names around here.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, all of those guys are the worst. Especially the douchewhistle with that "rob" acronym..."runt on board" was so '88.
ReplyDeleteHola.
ReplyDeleteAnd Whitney's name is still up there, dummy.
We need more Rave Truck.
ReplyDeleteigor! love your bar.
ReplyDeleteIt's pronounced "EYE-gor."
ReplyDeleteWhat hump?
ReplyDeleteOhio State-Tennessee is FUUUN. Lots of scoring, tons of athletes on the floor and a nice matchup between Bruce Peal's defensive looks and Evan Turner.
ReplyDeleteBaylor, on the other hand, just looks way too tough defensively and too athletic for St. Mary's.
LaceDarius...not even remotely phased by St. Mary's defenders.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the article about the autistic kid who picked every game right so far? He has Tennessee in the final four.
ReplyDeleteI just commented 4 or 5 times in the wrong post below. I am a moron.
ReplyDeleteI hate these algae ads. Dude's been growing algae for 35 years and he still can't make fuel?
ReplyDeleteThe autistic kid also has somebody absurd (and already eliminated) winnng the tourney. It's a nice story and he's won some good cash for his efforts but he ain't winning any pools.
ReplyDeleteI'd say Baylor is murdering St Marys, but something feels off about that.
ReplyDeleteI think he had Purdue winning it all.
ReplyDeletewow, exit samhan
ReplyDeleteHe's off to never never land.
ReplyDeleteSome guy named Alonzo Gee led the Wiz in scoring in the first half. The Wiz, they are bad.
ReplyDeletebruce pearl is right: turner carries the shit out of the ball
ReplyDeleteI call that NBA-ready rob.
ReplyDeleteNon-headband Chism wants to carry these guys to a win.
ReplyDeletei admit it: that t-pain cameo makes me giggle
ReplyDeleteWhat did JP Prince do to these refs? Those are two terrible calls on him in a row. Both should've been offensive fouls.
ReplyDeleteCan I call Brian Williams "Venison Dele"?
ReplyDeleteI agree, Turner gains a huge advantage by the way he handles the ball.
ReplyDeleteAnd Alonzo Gee played at Bama. Good athlete, decent shooter, no basketball IQ.
Gee sounds perfect for this Wiz team.
ReplyDeleteI'll say it. Turner's jumper needs LOTS of work.
ReplyDeleteYou're right Teej. He just needs a criminal charge or two.
ReplyDeleteUm, North Korea sank a South Korean sub? What is this, 1955?
ReplyDeleteshlara left the country for italy today. i question her commitment to the hoops cause.
ReplyDeleteOhio St might want to stop fouling guys throwing down hammer dunks.
ReplyDeleteYou circling her house with your lights off?
ReplyDeleteJP Prince is kind of a douche, maybe that's what the refs have against him.
ReplyDeleteOmar Samhan...the Greek league is on line 1.
ReplyDeleteohio state is circling the drain
ReplyDeleteTJ...Wayne Chism would like you to blow him where the pampers is.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Jon Diebler picked a bad night to lose his shooting touch.
ReplyDeleteMark, did you know the Wiz signed Shaun Livingston to a 10 day contract, and within one week he was signed for the year and has stoled Randy Foye's starting PG gig?
ReplyDeleteWayne's bringing it big time.
ReplyDeleteIs Wayne Chism gonna have to choke a bitch?
ReplyDeleteI did not know that. Good For Livingston. By all accounts he's a great guy who's worked his ass off to come back from a devastating injury. It's a shame he was hurt so badly because he had everything you could ever want in a PG and then some. As for Foye, he's not a PG. Just PG size. I like him as a player but he's a 3rd guard/6th man on a really good team. It's a good thing he wasn't traded for a star like Brandon Roy on draft day.
ReplyDeleteVenison Dele is just throwing OSU guys around the paint.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, he's setting some very questionable screens.
ReplyDeleteWe've got another beaut of a game...god bless
ReplyDeleteHas JP Prince been the best player in this game? Seriously. He's made an impact in every phase.
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteWhat a game.
ReplyDeleteDouble wow
ReplyDeleteunreal - haymakers all around
ReplyDeleteTurner's a little right hand heavy for my taste. He needs to get better at taking it and finishing strongly with his left. He never even feigned taking it left over the last 5 minutes.
ReplyDelete'Lil Iverson needs to sink these...
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I'm nitpicking. But these are the things he'll have to be able to do to be a big time pro.
ReplyDeletehard to beat verne & raftery too...i wub it.
ReplyDeleteis the rainboy bracket picker still perfect? really? he did pick purdue cuz his older brother graduated from there, also autistic
Mark, it sounds like I already have the answer, but if you were the Nets your taking Wall #1 hands down? No Turner talk?
ReplyDeleteUm, foul?
ReplyDeleteturrrible possession
ReplyDeleteNope, not a foul. Horrendous possession indeed.
ReplyDeleteAs Tennessee dies, so does my bracket. Au revoir, $1200 first prize.
ReplyDeletewe're all boilermakers tonight, friends
ReplyDeleteI don't understand that strategy. Get a quick 2, foul and extend the game. You don't have to have a 3 when you're down 2 with 12 seconds left. Dumb. Just dumb.
ReplyDeleteAs for the #1 pick. The impact of a dominant PG is just too great in today's NBA. I know the Nets have Devin Harris but he's nowhere near what Wall can be. Wall and Brook Lopez are two fantastic building blocks for a franchise. Even a team like Utah should take Wall #1 and then try and trade him for assets if they don't think they can pair he and Deron Williams. Wall will be highly sought after and whoever drafts him will be able to improve themselves significantly with what they receive in return.
And Farokhmaneshes.
ReplyDeleteNo, he had Cuse over Butler. That's his only wrong pick though.

If some guy was rapping about breaksfast in your car pool van, wouldn't you fucking slap him?
ReplyDeleteAnd steal his fucking food/coffee.
ReplyDeleteThe McDonalds commercial with the guy rapping in the car over a beat from 1991 is brutal. The "rapper" should take off his clothes and return them to the Dwayne Wayne section of the "A Different World" wardrobe museum.
ReplyDeleteYes. And I think I've heard that song before. I can't put my finger on it, but it's a ripoff of something.
ReplyDeletest mary's winning the second half
ReplyDeleteThat blonde with Bryce Drew has some hair, eh?
ReplyDeleteBryce Drew needs to give Pete Sampras his face back.
ReplyDeletewe're gonna get the duke game, aren't we?
ReplyDeleteyes. yes we are.
ReplyDeletenovel approach for purdue - nothing but air
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for anybody who's cable provider didn't give them a second HD channel that carries the out of market tournament game. Actually, no. No I don't.
ReplyDeleteOr whose. Bad day of grammar and syntax for me. I know what the problem is though...no papal ballots. I'll take care of that.
ReplyDelete'lower body root canal', huh clark?
ReplyDeletepurdue and duke should be using peach baskets
ReplyDeletedoes general zaius know his son is playing center for duke?
ReplyDeleteDuke's cheerleaders are very Tribesque.
ReplyDeleteI think his name was Dr. Zaius, actually.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could dunk.
ReplyDeleteyou're right, he was a doctor. it was general zod. who also looks like zoubek.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of growing a small neckbeard, like a neckgoatee. The Z-woman isn't as enthusiastic as I am. But Zoubek and Pullen have inspired me.
ReplyDeletePurdue's shorts are preposterous.
ReplyDeleteTJ -- I just accidentally left a comment on the last thread. Thought you might want some company.
ReplyDeleteMy beard is halfway down my neck. It's really quite a fucking sight a this point. A conversation piece even.
ReplyDeleteI just want to grow a patch of hair directly under my chin and down my neck. A neckgoatee.
ReplyDeleteYou just saw why Kyle Singler won't be much of an NBA player. An NBA 3 has to hammer that.
ReplyDeleteduke is singler. singler is duke.
ReplyDeleteBy all means Z. Go for it.
ReplyDeleteAnd what's your shot fetish? I seem to remember you having issues with Nova's shorts last season.
The new Duke, Rob. And that's one of the reasons they aren't as good as they once were.
ReplyDeleteI think it looks really stupid when your shorts cover more of your shins than they leave exposed. Your shorts should cover no more than 49% of your shins, and ideally shouldn't fall more than an inch below your kneecap. Everyone's game just looks stupid in capri pants.
ReplyDeleteDid any of you watch Northern Iowa at all this year? Did anyone know they were good?
ReplyDeleteside of fries and a biscuit? so you can bind yourself up for a few days?
ReplyDeletei saw uni drum odu in the bracketbusters. the mid-major geeks loved them from early on.
ReplyDeleteroe. whoa.
ReplyDeleteIs... is that... the Teej?
ReplyDeleteterrific 3 minutes for delvon roe
ReplyDeleteIt's a shame his knee is wrecked. He's got a great mind for the game and used to have a ton of athletic ability. Microfracture surgey is high school is tough to recover from, I imagine.
ReplyDeleteSI did an article on UNI in February.
Wildcats is among the worst nicknames ever. So generic.
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, Lucas O'Rear was the the 6th man on the All G:TB team.
ReplyDeleteso tom izzo's pretty effing brilliant, isn't he?
ReplyDeleteJust a hunch, but I bet TR has a giant man-crush on UNI's chubby guy with muttonchops.
ReplyDeleteAnd I also have a hunch that there are no barbers or mirrors in Durham, hence Singler's hair.
ReplyDeleteAs to Rob's point, Michigan State's offensive sets are beautiful to watch. He's a great X's and O's coach.
ReplyDeleteThat's the second ad intimating that your children will love you if you drive a truck.
ReplyDeletechris kramer is tougher than you are
ReplyDeleteIt is tough to hate duke as much as I do, but I think some G:TB'ers might.
ReplyDeleteVictoria Jackson aged poorly.
ReplyDeletei hate carolina more, but i'm definitely rooting against the devils.
ReplyDeleteI never forgave Duke after they denied my application.
ReplyDeleteI think Singler has the AIDS.
ReplyDeletetied at the under 8 in st louis. 1-point game in houston. best first three rounds ever? best first three rounds ever.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think Mr. Littlejeans?
ReplyDeleteMost definitely rob. If Northern Iowa wins we'll have a 6-9 matchup for the right to go to the final four. When was the last time that happened?
ReplyDeleteCredit to Jay Bilas. He said a month ago ( and repeated often) that he thought this year's tourney would turn out like the 06 tourney when Florida, UCLA, LSU and Mason made the Final Four. So far, he ain't far off.
ReplyDeleteJon Scheyer is skinnier than you are.
ReplyDeletejacobson's not a bad coach himself. trapping the post paying dividends.
ReplyDeletelucious! wow.
ReplyDeleteKorey Lucious. Luscious.
ReplyDelete84% shooter koch misses a pair, lucious hits a fadeaway to put msu up 4. might be it.
ReplyDeleteballgame. fuck.
ReplyDeleteI am truly excited for Baylor-Duke.
ReplyDeletegot caught up on all my shows yesterday evening - Lost was a pleasant surprise. What say you.
ReplyDeleteDan, starting Lost now, will report back.
ReplyDeleteFrank Wright is stunningly ineloquent.
ReplyDeletehe can design the shit out of a building, though
ReplyDeleteIndeed. I think I meant Frank Martin. I too am bumblingly ineloquent.
ReplyDeleteBrad Friedel gave up 7 against Chelsea. Not a strong show from a solid Aston Villa squad.
ReplyDeleteIn other US action, Jozy Altidore went most of the way in a rare Hull City win against Clint Dempsey's Fulham squad. Dempsey went the whole way.
Does Jay Bilas go to his barber and say "give me the Montross?"
ReplyDelete7 as in goals? guh.
ReplyDeletefulham beat juventus last week. bit of a letdown today.
Matt Howard's rocking the Adam Morrison Memorial Crustache.
ReplyDeletec'mon, butler. this isn't wisconsin-green bay.
ReplyDeleteNot much of a crowd at LSU's spring game. At least by SEC standards.
ReplyDeleteK-State looks tired from Thursday's double OT thriller. Frank Martin thinks "tired legs" are for pussies.
Jacob Pullen appears to talk constantly. He just yelled at the basket support and he and Jordan Crawford were yakking, and it appeared to be very friendly, throughout the entirety of the 15 minutes of their closely contested contest.
ReplyDeletebaby-faced assassin
ReplyDeleteJesse Palmer just referenced Tron during a pass attempt to a Terrance Tolliver (who has an unusual cast on his hand). I feel like this happened because Les Miles made the ESPN crew watch Tron with him last night.
ReplyDeleteShould we even care what Jacob Pullen does until the last 5-6 minutes of a game. Dude is money down the stretch.
ReplyDeletethroats getting tight in the dark uniforms
ReplyDeleteAfter this tremendously fun tournament, the NCAA might not want to tinker with the format.
ReplyDeleteLol. The moment after Gus Johnson raves about Girdon Hayward's fundamental base, he fumbles the ball away with no pressure on him.
ReplyDeleteClemente for the lead!
I'm thinking of leaving my fiancé for this tournament. You think I have a chance?
ReplyDeleteTwo differences in this game, IMO. K-State's fatigue and Butler's head/heart. Bulldogs didn't panic when it got tight and made all the big plays over the last 2 minutes.
ReplyDeleteIt's official. Butler's THE mid-major program in College Basketball. And you know what? I'm happy for them, their fans and the program as a whole.
ReplyDeleteA 33-year-old former pharmaceutical sales rep just coached his team into the final four. Good for him.
ReplyDeletethat's a really damn good team. this is no fluke.
ReplyDeleteThe video clip of Brad Stevens doing the flying shoulder bump with his assistant was great. Tough not to like that whole team, top to bottom.
ReplyDeletegus on hayward after getting an o.reb and a layin - "don't let the smooth taste fool ya" ???
ReplyDeleteon someone else - clemente perhaps - "he's the straw that stirs the drink" which is a total ripoff from one of my shows this week - Modern Family mabye? 30 Rock - can't remember...
hellofa bawgame there.
I believe Reggie Jackson said it first. NYC was the drink, he was the straw that stirred it.
ReplyDeleteYeah Dan, that saying's been around for some time.
ReplyDeletedan - yeah ahhhh, that saying's been around since moby dick was a tadpole....ahhh, i think we're gonna need you to come in on sunnnnday, yeahh....thanks.
ReplyDeleteThis game is quite strange.
ReplyDeleteAnd West Virginia's zone(s) are bothering Kentucky. Like really, really bothering Kentucky.
ReplyDeletehow many times has a team led at the half of an ncaa tournament game without making a 2-point field goal?
ReplyDeletei love love love damarcus cousins' game.
ReplyDeleteHis attitude is another question.
ReplyDeleteAh, the ole junk slap.
ReplyDeleteWhy, exactly is this Disneyland?
ReplyDeleteHuggy's final four appearance - nicky va poo poo was involved right? Who else was on that club?
ReplyDeleteBob Huggins is a much better coach than I ever gave him credit for. I read several articles in the last week about him blending some of the old Beilin with his schemes, and the results speak for themselves.
ReplyDeletePlus, he loves a good Irish taxi ride, and honestly, who doesn't?
ken pomeroy says this is enberg's last game. pretty good run.
ReplyDeletei can't believe i'm rooting for huggins
ReplyDeleteWhy does Kentucky just keep giving up layups to Joe Mazzulla? His shoulder's fucked but it doesn't mean he can't hit layups.
ReplyDeleteMy high school coach played for Huggins in college (not at Natti, much earlier) and we ran all his sets.
ReplyDeleteNot to get all Jaworski, or Bilas, but the Huggy offense gives me wood.
ReplyDeleteBilas took the words right out of my mouth...stop the ball. Not stopping the ball on the break is an automatic suicide in any self respecting coach's practice.
ReplyDeletei thought the 20-second tribute to enberg's career was a bit lame.
ReplyDeletebilas is going snorkelin later tonight.
John Wall gives Dick Enberg wood.
ReplyDeletei can't remember a harder guy to stop with the ball than wall
ReplyDeletecousins walked on that play
ReplyDeleteIn all seriousness, Kentucky has five first round draft picks on this team right?
ReplyDeleteWall
Cousins
Bledsoe
Patterson
Orton
anyone turning off their electricity for earth hour? sorry, almost got through that with a straight face.
ReplyDeleteYoung Jason Kidd was pretty amazing on the break but he didn't have near the hops or finishing ability that Wall has.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely 4 and somebody might take a shot with Orton. No doubt.
ReplyDeleteWest Va has shot lights out for an hour and a half. Does that count?
ReplyDelete/gore'd
Bilas is making a great point without actually making it. Huggins has outcoached Calipari by an embarassing margin in the 2nd half.
ReplyDeletethis is shaping up as a strange and wonderful final four. and i bet the ratings will suck.
ReplyDeleteObviously, we also want to add Baylor and Tennessee tomorrow, ratings be damned.
ReplyDeleteI can't root for Tennessee to make the Final Four. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteCompletely understood. You and Mateen Cleeves should have an impromptu election and vote early....and often.
ReplyDeletegtb's own baylor bears need to get to indy.
ReplyDeleteOnce, twice, thre times a lacedarius...
