They will not stay here after we mock them for not understanding our legal mores.

Our legal mores would likely be our biggest draw.

Bob Ryan in today's Boston Globe:
  • Another New England entry wasn't so fortunate. Three-time America East champion Vermont finally got a well-deserved 13 seed. And what does the committee do? For the third year in a row it puts them up against one of them ath-a-letic teams. Two years ago they were a No. 16 and it was Arizona. OK, that's life. Last year they were a No. 15 and it was UConn. They couldn't exactly complain. But this time they play well enough to get advanced two notches and their reward is Syracuse? Geez. Committee guys, have a heart.

    Couldn't the committee at least have found some orderly bounce-pass team against whom the Catamounts might at least be able to compete on a physical basis? How is Vermont supposed to get the ball inside to Taylor Coppenrath against a Syracuse zone that covers enough ground to defend Central Park? I guess public empathy with retiring coach Tom Brennan only goes so far. You want to talk matchups? Niagara, a 14 seed, has a better chance of winning its game against No. 3 Oklahoma than No. 13 Vermont does of winning its game against No. 4 Syracuse. That's not even debatable.
At the risk of sounding clicheed, I guess that's why they play the games.

My father-in-law picked up a bottle of 2003 Rosenblum Rockpile Road zin today. Excellent.

Bob Ryan's a dumbass. Have you seen them play? Vermont's a good team, and you know that they are going to play their hearts out in whatshisname's last year. I picked them in all my brackets, and I even had trouble not picking them over MSU, but I coudn't do it in the end.

Just because Kumar decides to go to med school doesn't mean the Kumar Rule is suspended vis-a-vis other professions. For example, you are not in the NBA, and I am not in porno.

I don't get how these are similar examples. I can shoot and guard people- not well-enough, especially anymore. But didn't you say you haven't been posting, cuz you spend all day watching your email waiting for new spam offers for Cialis generics?
