That just tells you there are too many teams in the basketball tourney.

There are always debates--it's just a lot harder to complain about it if you're 9-2 and angry that a 10-2 team from a weaker conference made it instead of you.

But the debate is irrelevant--the bowls make too much money to let anything change. The NCAA isn't willing to pay them enough of the playoff juice to get them to go away, or host instead only a quarterfinal or semifinal matchup in mid-December.

It wouldn't happen in football if they had a 64 team tournament.

RT throws out a sexual softball, and you all talk football. Fucking pathetic.

Please note that #16 Harvard beat #1 Stanford a few years ago behind the efforts of Allison Feaster, now playing in the WNBA:



Not the most flattering picture of her. This is a little better:

Oooh, new poll -- how man manspinsters are into having someone IN them?

Sebby, you are not a manspinster so we don't want to hear about rockets.

Aesthetics aside, what message is meant to be conveyed when someone puts one of these on their car?



I mean, say, as opposed to one of these:

Do you have the tight abbed hunk or the cutie from my basketball group? I don't know whether to ask him (basketball guy) out or continue the mutual flirting? I find myself obsessed with this guy. Yes, I've googled him. The real him has produced an independent film, the other hims are a collegiate tennis player, a high profile Chicago financier, and a high school track star from fly-over land.

What say you FB men? Would you be flattered or put off by a woman asking you out?
Any man who would be put off by a woman asking him out is not worth going out with.
